Either Jamie the Pirate is completely dishonest or an ignoble fool, and he has always been that small of a way.

Thank-you for speaking to what you know to be true Country Girl.

Many decades ago, and long before I had any idea that I would ever be called upon to serve, I was once a liberal Democrat that had just transitioned into a moderate Democrat, without really knowing what it meant to be a Democrat at all; however, I was 26 years old and waking up, about to become a father for the first time.

It was at that time my cavalier attitude toward abortion changed forever. Without belaboring the point, something dramatic happened in my life that made me firmly consider what constituted the beginning of life, and what a very important path fatherhood is for our species.

What happened next within my young, clearing mind is my spiritual address of the subject replacing my new scientific understanding of the the Beginning of Life, and what I discovered was: How can Abortion on Demand be a noble necessity for ardent liberal Democrats, when there is a true life in the balance?

It was not long after that awakening of mind and purpose that I realized that I would have trouble voting for any candidate, for any elected office, that did not approach the precious life of the unborn in as serious manner as myself.

By the time I was 32 years I had stopped (as I was then a conservative Democrat) voting for any Democrat whatsoever except Mitchell Norton, Beaufort County's DA. Mitchell was my front door neighbor, and I liked and respected him, also ... He too was a conservative Democrat.

It was not until 1991 that I became a Republican, but when I did become one, I was a passionate about true Conservativism in the wake of what Ronald Reagan had wrought. I still feel blessed that this nation had such a wonderful president, and I pray that our next president will be just as transformational ... or within reason close to that good man, by far and away the greatest, most significant president of my lifetime.

Maybe then our nation will transition to a more thoughtful position, more spiritually considerate of what is real, and cease serving at the alter of evil idols, one of which - Abortion on Demand.

"It will not allow Abortion on Demand."

Stan allow me to correct this if you will please. It will allow murder on demand.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."
Creation begins at conception so those creations that are terminated before birth are being denied their God given rights to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Well, I can only add that Barack Hussein Obama was always a ... "man's man," way ahead of his time.

With this new revelation of his sexual diversity, the Democratic Socialists should now be doing backflips in these days and times (if he had now already served two terms) to run such a "forward thinking guy's guy". Hilary Clinton, nor any Democratic Socialist aspirant would ever have a chance in any primary against this pan sexual wunderkind.

Why do so many of our colleges and universities exhibit this despicable Soviet mentatlity?

This is a really good analysis of where the western world finds ourselves, both in Europe and America. The "woke" movement does indeed follow the concepts laid down by the Stalinists decades ago and want to crush individual freedom. Where the Stalinists sought to create the "New Soviet Man" the wokesters are after the DEI person, and it is the same thing. The subject of this interview was once an active Communist apparatchik, so he can see the paralells better than most.

A liberal black Democrat big city mayor comprehends that illegal alien migration threatens to destroy his city. IT is starting, More and more liberals and Democrats are going to start realizing that Biden's border policies are a threat to the entire country, as are the EU's border policies in Europe.

Well Stan, I think we can agree to disagree.

Grace Brown: As a county commissioner, I have no position on City matters unless it affects the county government, which is far a larger ingredient in all of Beaufort County residents' lives, including those that live within the city limits.

To that end, since the county, as a body politic of the state of North Carolina, administers most state services, and, in kind, many federal ones as well, I am very concerned with what occurs more in Raleigh and Washington, DC rather than Washington, NC.

For instance, the corruption within the Federal Executive concerns me greatly, as Beaufort County is now becoming a "border county" since the corrupt Idiot President has opened the borders wide open, and has effectively worked in tandem, as an accessory, with the Narcotics and Human Trafficking /Sex Slave Trade to bring additional evil to all our communities.

This is what I think about, and am working to destroy. That destruction begins with the elimination of all non patriot politicians and bureaucrats.

So, I leave city matters to city politicians until ... they should go off the deep end ... then I will get involved as I do with Raleigh and Washington, DC.

Thank you, Commissioner. I too have a healthy appreciation for honesty. Please share your truth. What is your stance on the museum and senior center coexisting in the same building? Do you share the same disdain as your tenant?
