Conservative Voter,
No sir/ma'am, I am not using it in the same way as Bluecoat Buzzeo. I find it ironic that Buzzeo used those terms..... considering the front game he was playing and the fact that he had so many fooled. I can sense when someone is of the tribe or if they're full of shit-o. To answer your question with one final statement: I use the term with both militaristic and romantic intention. I do not use the term to deceive people. Old Guard- the accepted heirarchy that has even shut out senior elder Conservatives because of the fact they were "red pilling" people. You know as well as I do who these people are. New Guard- younger and more diverse patriots (patriotos), who come in peace but don't run from a fight, with abilities that could be enhanced by and with the cooperation of the Old Guard. Regardless of what the "illuminated" state; things aren't what they appear to be. Both Republicans and Democrats need to admit the game is over. The illusion that is the two party system is finished.....and that's fact. It's on life support. Strategy is everything with me. Now that you mention Buzzeo, two other people connected with him possibly come to mind: Varcoe and Kidwell, the dynamic duo who call patriotos "plants sent in by the DEMS" at Pitt County TEA Party meetings.....which is an actual conspiracy to demonize possible known patriotos that pose a perceived "threat". Connect the dots and do the research. I have and I can prove it. I haven't taken the poison pill but according to some: I'm associated with QAnon and I write "Led Zeppelin Conspiracy Theories penned by Sheriff Coleman under candlelight". I like to make people wonder.....that's when the real QAnon (an organization created out of thin air by those who may be targets of both Q and Anonymous) conspiracy theories start flooding out. Watch the water. What I am sick of is people trying to tell me how I and everybody else in Beaufort County should vote. What we have in this county has stalemated and stalemated by design. What I see is a futile effort to prolong something that is already dead.....but the upper echelon is yet accept it. After all, you can only vote for one. I come in peace but all of this,the political disaster that sadly is BOCO and many other local governments across the Republic, is a self inflicted gunshot wound. It could have been stopped but both sides kept the ball in play. Common sense isn't partisan....it's a gift/weapon given to those who are capable of appreciating/wielding it. This whole situation is inevitable. The Legacy option is very admirable. I hate that we are so divided when it comes to understanding and discernment. If the public were to wake up; it would definitely be an "attention getter", to quote the late Jackie Gleason.

Jann, I concur that all of us need to do our own research and more of it, and if we do, the choices in the county commission race get real simple. Among the incumbents, Stan Deatherage has a strong record of supporting the America First agenda and a pro-taxpayer agenda. Frankie Waters is the polar opposite, having a record hostile to both the taxpayers interests and the America First agenda. Those records are there to be researched and are very clear cut.
Researching the two non-incumbents is a bit more difficult. Tandy Dunn has a website with some info. Dawn Slann does not. Both have circulated campaign materials and spoken at events. Tandy consistently has shown himself to be a friend of the taxpayer, and when he had discussed it, supports an America First agenda. Slann's campaign material avoids taking issues on anything except being against "partisanship" (maybe running Unaffiliated would have been more honest of her). Her public appearances are all over the landscape, seemingly wanting to tell whatever group she was in front of what she thought they wanted to hear. She talked a conservative leaning game in front of the Beaufort County Conservative Club but pandered heavily to the Chamber of Commerce at the latest candidate forum at the Turnage Theatre. Where does she really stand? Who knows, but the attack on "partisanship" sounds a whole lot like the Uniparty. Prior to running, she did make some good statements against the government's Covid overreach, but she now seems to have gone silent on even that. She is a real "pig in a poke".

High taxes and wasteful spending have been endemic in Beaufort County during the reign of the coalition of leftwing Democrats and nominal Republicans. That is one of the biggest issues in the county commission campaign. Stan Deatherage has a strong record of standing up for the taxpayer. Tandy Dunn makes a strong case that he would do so. Frankie Waters has a record as a tax and spend liberal, no different from Jerry Langley. That pair is the new tax and spend twins. Then there is Dawn Slann who seems to want to avoid the issue, but many of her statements seem to indicate that she would team up with Langley just as Waters has done.
Slann has made some of the right noises against government overreach on Covid, but it was Stan Deatherage who actually led efforts to get Beaufort County to reject Roy Cooper's Covid overreach. It looked for a time like the RINOs on the commission would finally do something right and join the conservatives in standing up to Cooper, but in the end, they knuckled under to Langley and voted with the Democrats. The only way that we are going to get the commission pointed in the right direction on any issue is to break Langley's hold on the RINOs. In his state House race, Langley submitted answers to an online questionaire that showed he was quite far to the left ideologically. Any Republican who would ally with Langley or even "comprosmise" with him is not much of a Republican. The two Republicans running who are trustworthy on that front are Deatherage and Dunn.

I agree with William Cratch! People need to do their OWN research and make the decision for themselves. I think that's how our country has gotten into such a mess over the years. People say they are too busy to research and just do whatever they are told.
RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH!!!!! GOD gave you your mind for a reason!

We have the Uniparty in Washington DC and also here in Beaufort County. In Washington, DC, it is Mitch McConnell that is its top operator. McConnell, who has strong personal financial ties to Red China, has been running interference on many key issues for Biden, including on many of Biden's spending boondoggles. There are also quite a number of Uniparty types in the House like Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
In Beaufort County, the Uniparty is represented by the coalition between RINOs and far left Democrats on the county commission. Frankie Waters and Jerry Langley are the current Uniparty leaders there but other RINOs have allied with Langley in the past. Both Waters and Langley have voted against gun rights, for illegal immigration, and for big spending and high taxes. Their Uniparty coalition seeks to freeze out the conservatives. Just like Dawn Slann, they attack "partisanship". What makes you think Slann would be anything other than another puppet for the Uniparty? Everything I see in her campaign indicates that. If Slann is not Uniparty, then she needs to start showing it. We do not need a Beaufort County version of Liz Cheney. Mr. Cratch, your use of the term "Old Guard" sticks out like a sore thumb. This was the very term that carpetbagger Ron Buzzeo, with his thick yankee accent and opposition to gun rights, used in his jihad to kick conservatives and Beaufort County natives out of the Beaufort County GOP a few years ago. Buzzeo had a few scalawags go along with his anti-conservative jihad. What do you mean by that term? Are you using it the same way Buzzeo did? I hope you have not fallen for that poison pill.

Time will tell.....won't it, sir?
I would ask the readers to deeply examine the Uniparty and all possibilities of who could be involved. I think most people can't even begin to imagine the depth of how far the Uniparty reaches. Watch the water......future proves past.

In terms of our county commission, there are two sides, the uniparty of RINOs and Democrats led by Frankie Waters and Jerry Langley, who are tax and spend hogs, on one side, and the taxpayer-friendly conservatives on the other. Where does Dawn Slann stand? Her recent statement at her meet and greet in Cypress Landing that she wants to negotiate with the Democrats just reeks of uniparty. So does her statement on her palm cards about not making decisions on "partisanship". Things like that smell like Frankie Waters in a skirt. They are the same things that Frankie would say. On the other hand, there are some stances she has taken that would indeed look conservative. However, her main target in the primary seems to be conservative Stan Deatherage, a long proven friend of the taxpayers. If Slann has said anything in her campaign materials about reducing taxes, I seem to have missed it. Can you provide a reference? Our taxes in Beaufort County are far too high and the uniparty is responsible.

For the record, I know that DBS's statement has been purposely taken out of context. She is a patrioto and definitely isn't lost for words. I would be willing to bet actual money (not FRN's) she said something true that pissed off the Old Guard....
To be honest, while I like Mr. Tandy; I have yet to hear him or anyone else besides DBS actually discuss matters important to We The People. Lowering taxes and discussing "politics as usual" isn't going to cut it anymore I believe she may know where, what and who the problems are. While I understand that you DO NOT negotiate with terrorists (tip of the hat to "Uncle Ronnie", President Reagan); you have to come to the table and execute "The Art of The Deal". If they refuse, they get what they ask for.....nothing. I'm seeing a pattern here. The sheriff is being painted as the enemy and DBS is as well. I remember a statement by the late Rush Limbaugh: "If they tell you to not like someone, do your own research. Somebody is lying." Controlled demolition? ....time will tell

Frankie Waters showed his true colors when he was the only "Republican" to vote against a resolution calling on the federal government to do something to crack down on illegal immigration. The resolution passed, but Waters voted along with the two open and admitted Democrats, Langley and Booth, both very liberal, against it. Anyone concerned about illegal immigration should vote against Frankie "Amnesty" Waters.
