    There has been a lot of hype surrounding the decrease in troop levels in Iraq, but I can assure you that the soldiers who are still here are working diligently to assist and train the Iraqis, as we move from combat operations to stability operations.

  • In the Big League now

    With two weeks on ground in Baghdad, I have finally found a moment to write. My time as an Aide-de-Camp has been exhilarating and surreal.

  • The man who wanted to buy a House

    Poor Howie Rich. All he wants is a nice little House he can call his own in South Carolina. Money’s no object for the New York real estate magnate, who has shelled out a quarter million dollars so far this year. But the owners just aren’t in a selling mood.

  • You need to know about the Budget and Control Board

    The S.C. Budget and Control Board wields tremendous influence over state spending and operations. Yet how many people even know what it does?

  • Killing for fun is military madness

    Obama's promise of peace, hope and change is a winner, but his failure to end military killing for fun will make him a loser in 2012 and doom his party in November.

  • Back to the Right side

    It's hard to believe almost a year ago, I was still living in Snoqualmie, Wash. After our third baby was born in April of 2009, my husband started looking for a job with his company in their Charlotte branch.

  • To both my Democrat and GOP friends

    In 2006, Tax Reform Act 388 was passed by the state legislature as a tax swapping act reducing residential property tax in exchange for a penny raise on the state sales tax. This effort was made to begin the process of reforming our antiquated state tax code.

  • Can Democrats succeed in South Carolina?

    "Party seeks to redefine itself" was the headline about the state of the South Carolina Democratic Party. The recent article by Gina Smith in The State newspaper in Columbia was an introspective piece that featured opinions by some leading S.C. Democrats like former S.C. Democratic chair Dick Harpootlian.

  • Drivers need to wake up

    In a special report in its April issue, “Reader’s Digest” reveals which U.S. states have the best, the worst and the deadliest roads. It should be no surprise to anyone who lives and/or works in the Palmetto State where we rank.

  • It’s all about perspective
