The topics of discussion limited government, fiscal responsibility and rebuilding the economy. But before they got down to business they invited an entertainer for the opening ceremony.

Education is the Not the Enemy

Providing our children with a “sound, basic education” and making higher education as “affordable as practicable” are promises so sacred, we put them in our state constitution.

All Things Republican with a cup of Tea

Not the Tortoise & the Hare

It’s angered many. Disturbed some. Even "tickled" a few. It’s the talk on the street. The main topic of conversation on the phone … The Sheriff and the Judge. "It’s a mess I tell you," said one neighbor to another. "What in the world is going on?"
