Thanksgivings Are Special

Holidays are those special days full of special times and events which create lasting memories for all of us. Of all of the holidays, Christmas would have to take first place for creating the most memories…but Thanksgiving would run a close second place.

What makes Christmas and Thanksgiving both so special is the fact that both holidays involve pulling the family together for a sharing of love, caring, spending quality time together…and of course enjoying a delicious feast style meal together.

“Stop The Presses!!”

This column presents a conservative viewpoint about items of interest in our community and our lives. Focus is on items impacting your pocket book, your personal freedoms, and your rights. I hope you will read the column regularly and it occasionally influences your opinions and actions.

Our secretive, powerful, and unrestrained Federal Reserve has decided to devalue the U.S. Dollar by cranking up the printing presses and arbitrarily printing and putting into circulation $600,000,000,000 (Over half at trillion dollars), without that money being backed up by anything of value, such as gold reserves. This action devalues the dollar on the world market, makes that money you have stashed away in the ice box lose some of its purchasing power, makes oil and other imported products cost more, creates inflationary pressures, reduces our ability to borrow money on the world market, makes our creditors such as China very angry and jittery, and may cause other nations to also devalue their money in order to maintain a status quo as they export to the U.S. .

It appears this latest revenue generating program will reap around $200,000 per year from the pockets of tourist trying to make it to the Florida beaches.
They stated they might use this new income being realized by the city of Campbellton to create a city police force. Why not put in another light and double the revenues?

Getting It Right - Well, It is Over…What Do We Do Now?

Well, the election is over, all of the mud has been slung, all of the lies have been told, all of the promises have been made…..so what do we do now? Well all of the losers will begin calling in all of those favors they are owed for pulling political strings for their backers and friends. From these they will get the plush job as a bureaucrat, lobbyist, or consultant they were promised for the dirty deed they performed. Don’t worry about the losers. The system provides that they will be well cared for in the event they should ever suffer an election loss.
