Stan, if you have seen the letter, do you have a copy you could share on the site? Inquiting minds want to know.
Little Bobbie, MAGA's record in government 2016-2020 beats the heck out of what we have seen since from that senile fool Biden.

I saw the letter, and Hood does not lie ... In a historical sense, nobody in Beaufort County has seen, and, or knows better more lying politicians and bureaucrats than myself; that is the real of it.

Steve, There was no letter. If there was it would be on file. Producing one now would be worthless because it would not be from the time of resignation. Even so he has been given numerous times to speak at the meetings and used that time for his hateful rhetoric. Such I waste of time. He has however denied Keith Kidwell, an elected State Representative from his district to speak at his meetings.

I would not call someone "smarter" than anyone if they are supporting do-noting seat warmers on the school board who allow themselves to be rubberstamps for a leftwing school superintendant instead of doing the jobs they were elected to in setting policy for our schools. The useless school board members we have now seem to regard Cheeseman as their boss instead of their employee, which he actually is.

You say conservative, Christian, and Brave. Then you state above people are from out of the county running the GOP. Well as a lifelong Beaufort County resident your school board candidates there is only one that has been in Beaufort county and raised. One has many kids by different ladies while having affairs. One saw a sign and decided to run for school board. Beaufort County has woken up and sees the harm you have don for your worthless 27 years of service.

In 2024, our country faces an election that is existential. If Biden or someone like him remains in power, we will not recognize the America we know and love in another four years. It will be gone forever. In that context, all conservatives and Republicans need to focus on preventing that from happening rather than rehashing what happened in the local party in an incident two years ago. That cannot be changed but the direction of our country still can be. We also have lots of other important races like getting decent governor for a change and getting a local school board with the backbone to stand up to woke policies.
That said, there is an easy way to put that dispute over what Hood Richardson did or did not resign from to bed for good, and that is for someone to produce his letter of resignation to see what it actually said. When one holds two positions on one governing body, it is possible to resign both or to resign one and keep the other, and the specific wording of the resignation is what determines which has occured. I, myself had that situation. At the 1981 First Congressional District GOP convention, I was re-elected as a member at large of the NCGOP state executive committee for a two year term. A few months later, when Joe Beard resigned as Young Republican National Committeeman from NC to take a job in the Reagan administraion, he recommended me as his successor and I was elected by the state Young Republican Executive Committee. My new position also carried a voting seat on the NCGOP state executive committee, but I was not allowed to cast votes for both positions I now held. To give someone else from eastern North Carolina an opportunity to serve on the NCGOP state ExCom, I resigned my First District at-large seat, but retained my other seat by virtue of being YR National Committeeman. The key is the wording of the letter of resignation. I have pointed that out to both sides since just after this dispute began, but so far I have not seen either side produce the actual letter. Please, somebody do that so we can put this issue to bed. There are so many more important things we need to be working on that have a whole lot more bearing on our future.

The "True Republican Party" (The Beaufort County GOP); their motto enforced: 'Real Conservatives need not apply.'

Hood seems like you are the one yelping. The public is noticing what a hateful human being ( and I don’t like associating you with the term human) you are. I have watched you now for several years and listened to your rhetoric get more Communistic every year. Your followers are so indoctrinated that I feel sorry for them. You and your PAC need to go away and allow the work of the True Republican Party to proceed.

As usual, I will allow the public to decide who is lying and who is telling the truth.
However, I thoroughly disagree with the distortions to the truth presented below. The scalded dog always yelps.

Hood, when you resigned from the BCGOP Executive Committee, according to Article 5.6.a, you forfeited all rights and privileges in any way connected with that position. I didn’t make the decision, the rules mandated it. Any elected official that will lie and mislead its citizens does not deserve a seat at the table. I know you don’t care how you hurt people, but they don’t deserve the harm and defamation you cause.

I'm a member of both parties if you would like to call it that although one is a PAC and one is the actual party. I ran as a very Conservative candidate for City Council in the last election in Washington and almost one a seat for the Republican Party.
In that time I realized a few things. There are very conservative members in both groups and very active citizens with good intentions, good values, and good people that want to reach communities that have not been reached by our party in quite some time. This is all been done with conservative values in mind of fiscal responsibility and compliance with the law. I have to take Umbridge with this entire article as it does not accurately portray those whom it attacks. My ideology is decidedly to the right possibly even of trump on many issues and yet this article seems to lump me into a RINO category simply because I participate in what is the official Republican party as well as the conservative PAC. If Caroline Garris was so woke she would not have appointed me to become the volunteer coordinator for the Republican Party efforts in Beaufort County for 2024 before she had to step down as party chair. That simply would not happen if she was A RINO, which an official that was UNDER budget and returned 48,000 of appropriations of taxpayer funds cannot by definition be a RINO but rather a bona fide conservative. The attack on April Hollaway is frankly vulgar and an apology should be issued as it contains shabby viewed racial overtones and is false. As someone that is strongly pro-life, opposed to all tax increases, believes in a Civic Society rather than a government run Society, in a Melting Pot instead of a multi-cultural society... I believe I belong established my conservative credentials. Would I have observed for attending both groups is that there are certain members of each group that simply don't like each other. They tend to have the exact same views and issues but because of Personality clashes and egos we have division. I do not understand the continued attacks on Republicans. The Republican Party should be United in fighting the Democratic socialists and note I said the Democratic socialists not the conservative or moderate Democrats of which there is only a limited number left. Articles such as this do nothing to help us win in 2024. Just one man's opinion let the barrage of attacks begin.

As usual, you are a day late and a dollar short. You already know that I am not the Chair of the BCGOP. It was automatic resignation when a fellow Republican filed to run against me according to Article 6 Paragraph H in the BCGOP Plan of organization. You knew this since you used to be a member. Under Article 6.6, states, Any current or former officer or Member of a Precinct Committee or County Executive Committee who, for any reason, is removed or resigned from said position shall forfeit all rights and privileges in anyway connected with that position. When you attended a meeting you were given the floor to speak. Remember, you refused to let Representative Kidwell and myself to speak at your meeting. These are verifiable facts. You have reviewed the Plan of Organization for the past twenty some years. Please be truthful.

I know you would rather be right, but you are wrong again. Under Artice 5.4.a. If a Member of a Committee is convicted of a felony AFTER the election to such Committee organized under this Plan, the member will be removed without the need for any further action immediately effective upon such conviction. I think this is a very low attack on a lady that advocates everyday for the people and kids in her community. Shame on you for potentially harming her future.

The charges alleged by Hood against the current register of deeds, also a candidate for register of deeds is categorically false. There is a NC General Statute that provides for electronic recording of many important documents while others are being saved as "hard copies." There is limited space to store documents recorded daily at this office. The NC Law provides for redundant back up systems. Further, whenever a document is recorded, the owner of the document is provided with a hard copy. These hard copies should be stored in a fireproof safe at ones home. By his own admission, Hood likes to stir the stinky pot. He is rude and he can't be called a Gentleman. He falsely accused an officer of the Beaufort County Republican Party, of Assault. Hood lost this case in a court of law. That this man has served as a Beaufort County Commissioner for decades baffles me. His accusations against the Beaufort County Republican Party are lies. He has a genuine dislike for anyone who dare defy him.

You’re a miserable individual. You are a racist pig and a disgrace to the GOP. It’s people like you that are damaging the GOP with this BS crusade to be the “true conservative” Grow up, find Jesus and do some exercise.

Hood, you are almost correct about your statement, "There is some good news in the political battle between conservative Republicans and RINOs. During the 2020 and 2022 elections more than half of the total votes cast were for conservative Republican candidates."
First, I thought your optimistic estimate was too low; then when I thought better of it, in retrospect, I realized that your estimate was too high in a sense of optimism due to the Democrat-turned-Republican-promising-Conservatism paradigm. It is not panning out, and it never truly has. There is one note of optimism, this platform is reaching more people with the real truth, and so is your Beaufort County Conservative Republican PAC.
