This is ridiculous like little girls throwing tantrums. You're changing the history of those who served on these military bases.

Taking our pride for what we did serving our country you have conveyed we are not important. We're only here and served to die for your ridiculous and disrespect of all who have served.

You started all this by "playing dumb," and remember, there is this abject reality that my constituents are my top concern, and they are just fine with what I project as their representative. That political reality was confirmed by the last election.

You thinking that I am a pin cushion for your amusement, because I am a committed politician, is no argument for you, and others like you who don't understand the depth of these salient issues that must addressed and ultimately corrected.

If you, and those that you are an apologist for, do not approve of my syntax, my diction, put your own written solutions out there for review. That is how I understand the process of the work that must be done to move others to action.

In the meanwhile Big Bob, with all the constant corruption that I am acquainted with, a stain that lies upon the government of Beaufort County and elsewhere among your kind, I have little patience for those of you who "play dumb," and use that condition of the banal as an excuse for your deception away from that NOW uncovered corrupted behavior of YOUR people.

Wow, Finally a recollection that meshes with mine. Living in Atl at the time I knew I could go whenever I wanted so I didn't. I can only remember one concert I went to. It was for Jean Luc Ponty. Awesome show! The seats that I recall were church pews with cushions but without without legs so they were flat on the floor. You were so close to the artist! In one break I went for a bucket of beer and saw 2 members of Kansas playing pinball. One show you didn't mention was the Sex Pistols. Their first US appearance. I had a friend try to convince me to go with him but I wasn't a fan so missed that experience.

RINO Greg Murphy voted in Congress to support this attack on southern history. He is a scalawag scoundrel for doing so. Our new US Senator, Ted Budd voted in Congress AGAINST it. He is a Southern patriot.

Biden's woke DOD has gone full Orwell in its War on History, and is badly biased against the South.

''Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book has been rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And that process is continuing day be day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except the endless present in which the party is always right.'' -George Orwell

Natural gas has nothing to do with it. As Duke Energy clearly said, their double digit rate increase is due to using solar and wind, which are more expensive and require a lot more infrastructure changes. They are also intermittant sources that must be backed up when they are not producing with power bought at expensive prices on the spot market.

Nah, but I apologize for being so direct. It came off pretty snarky. That said, the document is hard to follow and apparently some of the commissioners thought so too.

On restoring the purpose of education: Have you read that thing? Nobody can understand it. It's very poorly written.

Exxon disagrees. Calculate world wide daily carbon emissions. There is no escaping the conclusion that this amount of CO2 is warming the planet.

You wokesters are so into putting people into categories, you cannot accept that people can change. Some drunks can dhange their bebavior theough working with AA. Some homosexuals can change their behavior by working with therapy that addresses that. Why not allow them to do so? The subject article was about the Dutch courts standing up for allowing this therapy to be available. Why are you opposed to that? Do you want to try to force homosexuals to stay in the category that has been set up for them by the woke?

Of course, homosexuality is a behavior, just like alcoholism, bestiality, bigamy, or pedophilia. They are not an ethnic group, although the woke seem to think they are.

My other point is what should be prohibited is the mutilation of children in sex change surgeries. Children who are not even old enough under state law to consent to sexual intercourse or to get a tattoo are being encouraged to allow their bodies to be mutilated.
