		<title>Illegal Immigration&#8230;REALLY, Nikki?!?!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some friends and I hosted a fundraiser for Vincent Sheheen tonight in Downtown Spartanburg. We had a great turnout and a fun time. (We&#39;re good like that). We got there early to set up.&#160;The press showed up and one reporter asked me what I thought about a press conference that Nikki Haley decided to have&#8230;spur [...]]]></description>

		<title>More Exposure on Kids on Prescription Drugs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Kudos to the New York Times for continuing to expose the dangers and the issues surrounding putting children on powerful drugs for hyperactivity and temper tantrums and oppositional defiant disorder (what is that? Disobeying???) Anyway, I&#39;m glad to see much light being shed on what has become an incredibly sad problem for so many children. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nikki&#8217;s 10 Dirty Words</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This letter ran in The State on Tuesday of this week: Nikki Haley&#8217;s &#8216;10 Dirty Words&#8217; Rep. Nikki Haley just released her jobs plan. These 10 words do not appear in it: 1. Agriculture &#8212; our largest industry. 2. Tourism &#8212; our second largest industry. 3. Technology &#8212; the largest driver of economic growth in [...]]]></description>

		<title>ADHD: Who Makes the Diagnosis?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Interesting article on cnn.com. According to this piece 5 million children in America have received this diagnosis. Doctors say children are being overdiagnosed and overmedicated. NO. Really?!?! Interesting comment from a reader at the bottom of this article: &#34;I&#39;m not from&#160;this country&#160;and had never heard of ADHD until I moved here.&#34; He probably hasn&#39;t heard [...]]]></description>

		<title>Note To Lee Bright</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#39;ve been following the mess in the Holly Springs Fire District lately and think that Spartanburg Senator Lee Bright&#39;s comments to outspoken citizens at last night&#39;s Spartanburg Delegation meeting were&#8230;interesting. &#34;Just because they can turn out 50 or 100 people, I&#39;m not going to ignore the 7,000 homes in that district. Because you know what? [...]]]></description>

		<title>Education does matter&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had an op-ed in Friday&#39;s paper on why the 40/30 challenge matters to our community (and our state and nation). There is so much more to this initiative&#160;than what has been presented.&#160;Yes, it&#39;s important to the economic growth of Spartanburg&#160;and all that but it&#39;s important to the PEOPLE of Spartanburg. You know&#8230;real, living, breathing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sheheen &amp; the Chamber</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Brad Warthen has a post today about Mike Fitts&#39; recent&#160;piece that ran in latest print version of the Columbia Regional Business Report (you got all that?) regarding the SC Chamber of Commerce&#39;s decision to endorse Vincent Sheheen for SC Governor. The Chamber&#39;s never endorsed a candidate&#8230;so it&#39;s important to read why they felt the need [...]]]></description>

		<title>Don&#8217;t Hate Me Because I&#8217;m Positive</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It never ceases to amaze me the criticism that comes with trying to be positive. Being positive isn&#8217;t always easy. It&#160;would be so much easier to sit on my&#160;butt and complain all the time and point out the mistakes of others and criticize what was going on. Really&#8230;it would. I tried it for a while&#8230;I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hand Picked Power</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Chris Cato over at WSPA did a great piece&#160;on tonight&#39;s news&#160;showing what happens when we elect Jethro to the legislature and then&#8230;give him a bunch of power. It is SO worth the watch. It&#39;s about the controversy over Senator Lee Bright choosing 4 of the Holly Springs Fire District&#160;commissioners. Cato links some donations to Bright&#160;and [...]]]></description>
