FOR DR. JAMES CARROLL to return to a maniacal society like Kuwait shows the doctor is a very brave man.

HILARY CLINTON had a stomach virus and suffered a concussion days before she was to testify in congressional hearings and before the House Foreign Affairs Committee to explain what she knew about the Benghazi affair. Very convenient. Mighty suspicious to say the least!

GOOD FOR EARL DRIGGERS in finding the “baddest dog” in town so that he can use it to protect his property. OK it’s up to you Jazzmine to take a big bite out of the bad guys’ rear ends when they show up!

GLAD THERE ARE OTHERS who disapprove of all those tacky homemade signs to advertise businesses, religions, etc. Since this robs newspapers of a way to be funded by ads, The Chronicle should hold the law to the letter of it and force a takedown of the signs, plus fines and charges on those companies.

IF YOU DADBLAMED Republicans keep labeling my Social Security payments as “entitlements” for my future, then you’d better refund every single penny to me and get us all out of the system. But you cannot just force me by law to pay into the system and then steal my money!

ARE WE SURPRISED at the Connecticut shootings? Look at the video games your children are playing. Look at the previews of upcoming movies! Our politicians preach division, hate and “revenge.” Church and God are being pushed out of our “me” society.

PRAYERS AND sympathy to the citizens of Newtown. Heaven has 20 new angels. Hell has one new stoker for the fire.

IS HILLARY’S FAINTING AND concussion that keeps her from testifying to Congress for real? It certainly is terribly coincidental.

THE TRAGEDY IN Connecticut already has sinister and treacherous politicians hinting at gun control. They claim it’s to protect Americans, but it’s obviously to disarm Americans so we will lose all our freedoms to a maniacal central government.

RAVES TO GRACE UNITED Methodist Church, North Augusta, for the “Return to Bethlehem” experience.

MAKE NO MISTAKE, when the liberals start talking about gun control, they are not talking about limiting who can purchase what. They are talking about eliminating the right to have a gun, period.

There's something unsettling about encouraging a dog to be the baddest in town.

Clemson's win over LSU, next

Clemson's win over LSU, next year's projected number one ranked team, was fantastic. Finally, one of our teams from Ga-Carolina won a big one.

Kuwait

I've been to Kuwait and found it extremely safe. Violence against foreigners is rare. There is little crime and most of that by foreign workers. Here is one recent article I came across to show you the extent of crime there:

"Guard Steals 5 Sheep...A Kuwaiti man in his 30s has lodged a complaint accusing a Bangladeshi guard of his farm in Kabad of running away with five sheep, reports Al-Seyassah daily. Police are looking for the guard."

My big bad dog (rip)

I miss him...he was scary to folks....kept them off the porch & protected me with strangers......he didn't harm anyone BUT he looked BAD......
He got in more trouble ripping screen doors---wood doors on porch----anything that hindered him from running off doing his thing....we must have replaced our screen on the deck window at least 4 times....but you know what.....I loved him MORE than any dog I've ever had.....wish I had him right now......I guess I'm a sucker for baaadddd males...♥

Another amazing thing

Some calling out for gun control have the MOST gun control around them 24/7

Some Hollywood figures wouldn't go out without their bodyguards.....but.....don't want armed guards in school.....just can't grasp that thought...

"IF YOU DADBLAMED Republicans

"IF YOU DADBLAMED Republicans keep labeling my Social Security payments as “entitlements”"

WOW.... Hold on there Low Informed Citizen.

A LITTLE HISTORY

The Social DIMocrats started Social Security in the later 1930's.
It was to be a form of Old age TAX FREE supplemental or basic retirement income.

The socialists of that time were fighting a new form of Government called Communism and it was a way to appease the lower income masses, while gaining access to more money with promises down the road. Many Courts call this a Pyramid Scam where the last guy in is left holding the empty bag.

The DIMocrats are the ones that robbed the trust fund between 1941-53 to fund WWII & Korean Wars both fought under Dimocrat Party Rule. All with the promise to repay it, but never did.

The Dimocrats are the ones that passed new laws mixing the Social Security Funds into the General Funds and Budget.

The Dimocrats are the ones that increased the scope of Social Security to include SSD to any thing under the sun.

Most of all the DIMocrats are the ones that passed the law to TAX Social Security Payments. It was done under the Clinton (D) and a Dimocrat Congress around 1995-7.

So again what did the RINO's do?
Other saying it is YOURS, and You Are Entitled To It.

Happy New Year 2013 America, Friends and TSDs.

First, I want to praise the LEO's that missed their midnight spirit and kisses that so many of us were having, out there on dark roads and streets saving no doubt many life's. Thank you all.

Those that know and remember Sarge, around 7 pm last night he was taken to Dr's Hospital in a very very weak condition with extreme body pain.

My only wish for the new year is that America Sees some light at the end of the tunnel. It has been on a long seamless dark track too long.

There is no doubt in my mind that the Hammer & Sickle Man was just waiting for something like the Newtown horror to happen.
Those that don't believe what will happen to the 2nd, The Last Rant says it all.

I've traveled the world - landed in Augusta at Fleming in the 60's as a little girl - started this odyssey at Ft Jackson on to Panama - and on from there - many places, many schools, many friends. And I might have run into B4 B4. LOL

Hillary had a vrus, and was

Hillary had a virus, and was dehydrated and fell. She was treated at a hospital for a concussion. She is now a patient in a hospital in NY, being treated for a blood clot between the brain and skull. It is awful and cruel for those who say there is nothing wrong with her. I just look at the source of those cruel remarks and know what they are all about.

"Hillary has a blood clot....

....caused by the concussion that some say she did not have."

Who were the "some" who say "she did not have" a blood clot?

Can you name three and provide quotes?

Two?

One?

I think there is considerable (and well deserved) skepticism about all the many reasons she uses attempting to isolate herself from the tragedy at Benghazi, but I haven't heard anybody outright say she's lying about the blood clot.

How the heck is a person in

How the heck is a person in her position allowed to become dehydrated in the first place? If you stop and think about it, the story is pretty unrealistic.
