It really was ‘bigger and badder’
By Bob Robinson

Greenville Eagles Independence Day Celebration and Fireworks entertained thousands - By all accounts, the crowd was bigger than last year, possibly even hitting the 3,000 mark judging by the wide pockets of celebrants over the approximately 7-8 acre expanse of manicured grounds. By all accounts, both bands were a hit. Tempest entertained hundreds with its 60’s music in the afternoon; headliner Classified entertained thousands… listening and dancing while waiting for dark...

A Memorable July 4th
              
Gathering together and watching fireworks for the 4th of July is one of this country’s longest-standing traditions. Even as a young boy, I can remember the excitement that came with the day. It was one of the most enjoyable times to gather with family and friends.

Hold the Line

Last night, Eagle Publishing’s softball team held the line against the Heritage Foundation with a final score of 16-12. As much as I love the Heritage Foundation, the visiting team gave them a drubbing. Well done guys! On another matter of holding the line, there is a lot of handwringing out there about how to actually implement the Cut, Cap, and Balance Pledge—the new conservative pledge asking members of Congress to (1) make serious cuts, (2) cap

The New Desperation of Team Obama
By Lurita Doan

Team Obama is looking more desperate these days.  The signs of desperation are clearly visible—Obama playing to a half-packed house in Miami, Obama using increasingly shrill arguments that his job creation efforts are working, Geithner’s threats regarding the debt ceiling and the Democrat-influenced mainstream media’s increasing criticisms of
