Beaufort Observer Guest Editorial  

We always appreciate the boys from the Beaufort Observer when they editorialize. Unlike the Washington Daily News the Beaufort Observer backs up their opinions with facts.

U. S. Attorney General Eric Holder, responding to criticism of him over the Fast and Furious gunrunning scandal said: "This is a way to get at the president because of the way I can be identified with him, both due to the nature of our relationship, the fact that we're both African-American.
Last week we were treated to pictures of an American drone captured in Iran. Less noticed in the spin coming out of the White House about Obama's winning the War in Iraq was a note that American drones will continue to operate over Iraq.
The Pantego Wind Farm continues to attract attention by the Beaufort County Commissioners, if for no other reason than several members of the public are intent on being sure the Commissioners understand the issues and the company is putting for a valiant effort to "sell" the project.
Proof that we have an economic illiterate for President of the United States was clearly demonstrated Sunday night (12-12-11) on 60 Minutes when Steve Croft interviewed Barack Obama.

An Illinois company, doing business as Pantego Wind Energy LLC proposes to build a windmill farm in Pantego to generate electricity. It is a bad idea.
Walter B. Jones, Jr. supports the pullout of American troops from Afghanistan. Now we learn how the enemy views all this.
It didn't work. In spite of all the threats from Team Obama the Democrat-controlled Senate rejected Obama's "piece" of his Jobs Bill stimulus that was proposed to provide for firemen, policemen and teachers.

We've posted several articles and videos the last few days about the "Occupy wherever" protests. You've probably seen reports if you watch the Elite Media evening news stories.
