BREAKING: MULTIPLE RANCHES IN LAREDO, TX TAKEN OVER BY LOS ZETAS
The bloodbath continues along our southern border and now word is coming in that Los Zetas, the highly trained killers formerly with the Gulf Cartel, have crossed into the United States and taken over at least two ranches in the Laredo, Texas area. I am receiving word that the owners of the ranches have evacuated without being harmed.
Founder of the San Diego Minutemen Jeff Schwilk tipped me off to this story and passes along the following information on the location. The ranches are said to be “near Mines Rd. and Minerales Annex Rd about 10 miles NW of I-35″. [Read more →]

The SCGOP’s Moral Failure
By Joshua Finn, Clemson University engineering student
What, you thought that the GOP represented your values and standards? Not in South Carolina.
As we stand now long overdue for a high level disciplinary action on State Sen. Jake Knotts for his racism and bigotry, the Republican Party wants us to exercise church-like conduct and move on. As such, perhaps the only thing more disturbing than the SCGOP’s complete refusal to discipline Sen. Knotts during their executive committee meeting is the fact that they went the route of twisting God’s Word in order to do so.
York County Executive Committeeman Glenn McCall gave us a unity speech quoting from the Bible and asking that we “put away malice and strife,” using his skin color in an attempt to persuade the party to his side. Karen Floyd backed him up with similar comments, and no one took any action to address Knotts’ unapologetic misbehavior.
What can we do? First, we need to notify our county GOP leadership. Second, we can let Karen Floyd know of our dissatisfaction over her establishment pandering. Lastly, perhaps it is time for some of us to seek positions within the GOP so that we can have trustworthy leadership who are concerned with promoting righteousness rather than enjoying the benefits of power.

SC Voter ID bill dies
Associated Press
COLUMBIA -- A bill requiring South Carolina voters to show a photo ID and also allowing them to cast a ballot early has died for the year.
After months of wrangling, House and Senate members failed to agree on a compromise Tuesday before adjourning.
House GOP leaders said showing a photo is an issue of voter integrity, but they didn't like pre-Election Day voting. A compromise between House and Senate Republicans allowed eight days of no-excuse early voting, but in only one location per county.
Democratic senators blocked its passage, wanting more time to vote in more locations. Democrats in both chambers called the photo requirement an attempt to suppress the minority vote.
House GOP leaders faulted Senate Republicans for not stopping the filibuster.
And you may personally thank these former Democrats:
Senator Hugh Leatherman – (803) 212-6640
Senator Jake Knotts – (803) 212-6350
Senator Luke Rankin – (803) 212-6132
Senator Billy O’Dell – (803) 212-6040

Just how much change do we need?
From Randy Simpson, Seneca TEA Party Organizer
The symbolism in the illustrations below is thought provoking, and I believe it to be accurate. Please read all the way to the bottom of the email. Consider the quotations at the end. I ask you this…if this is the greatest country in the history of the world, why do some want a complete makeover? Duh!

GOP rebukes Knotts for Haley slur
By JOHN O’CONNOR of thestate.com
Lexington County Republicans voted to rebuke state Sen. Jake Knotts and ask him to resign his office after he used a racial slur last week against state Rep. Nikki Haley.

South Carolina State Senator Jake Knotts (R-Lexington) answers a question during a news conference at the Statehouse Friday, June 26, 2009. Knotts confirmed that SLED has agreed to open an investigation into governor Mark Sanfordaïs actions.
Both lawmakers are from Lexington County and the dispute was a feud between old guard Knotts and Haley, who represents the rising conservative wing of the party. Knotts referred to Haley, whose parents are Indian immigrants, as a “raghead” on an Internet political talk show.
Knotts said Thursday night he would not resign, and said the resolution was pushed by supporters of Haley and Gov. Mark Sanford, Knotts’ longtime adversary.
