In the Pickle Barrel

In The Pickle Barrel is a place to talk about politics,issues and events taking place in the United States of America and places around the world that affect this great country. Whether in the North, South East or West we face major problems. Small towns, big cities, industrial areas, the farm lands across this nation are struggling. In the Pickle Barrel is where the politics, social issues, or any topic that we as Americans should be concerned about is fair game. A long time ago, I decided I was tired of being a member of the "Silent Majority" I decided it was time to speak up and be heard. I have a mind of my own and the good Lord knows I don't mind sharing my thoughts. You may, or may not, like what I have to say; so be careful what you ask for. I may not always agree with what you say. However, thanks to our forefathers, the Constitution gives us the right of free speech. I believe in the Constitution and feel that we need to protect every line of it. Above all, I am an American, a South Carolinian and I am darn proud of it! Maybe by having an open mind and discussing the issues we'll find a way to get our so called Representatives of the People to listen to "WE THE PEOPLE". Who knows, we might even find a way to get out of The Pickle Barrel.
