Carolina rants and raves
From Staff

LINDSEY GRAHAM "wins in a landslide." How sad indeed that South Carolina voters got suckered again. This bozo insists on letting all the illegal aliens flood the U.S., and that's just for starters. He's in cahoots with Bush and McCain. What more do you need to know? He claims he is for "mainstream traditional conservatism." Anytime a pol or media guy says "mainstream," watch your back. Suckered! Sad indeed!

SOUTH CAROLINA Gov. Mark Sanford vetoed socialist laws, so the pols in Columbia overrode his vetoes, thus proving enough of the South Carolina Statehouse voters are socialists, or worse.

THE AIKEN HOUSING AUTHORITY is looking for young folks to "oversee its summer food program." What's socialized "housing" got to do with socialized "free food?" Can't we figure out that socialism has never worked and never will?

A HUGE RANT to North Augusta Bingo! We support your business, we spend our money, and all you give us are excuses! Callers that have a chip on their shoulder and want to hurry and get out of there! You cannot even see a bingo, much less call out! And what do the owners care? They need to listen to their customers more and realize without good customers they won't need these callers who cannot even speak where you can understand what they are saying!

SOUTH CAROLINA Rep. James Clyburn has earmarked, alone, $45.5 million, much going to outfits that benefit his kinfolks, and many of those outfits are not even the responsibility nor under the authority of the federal government, not constitutionally for sure. Does it tell us that the whole bloody Congress is crooked?

GOOD FOR TURNO, Hembree, et al., at the Aiken Department of Public Safety for using a good idea, the "wanted" display. Hear! Hear!

ONCE AGAIN, AIKEN County School District Area 3 is up to old tricks. They have allowed Midland Valley High School to virtually eliminate the marching band by taking away the band's ability to raise money through concessions at football games. They now must share concessions with the athletic booster club so the rich get richer and the band goes away. Aiken County should be ashamed.
