...very real, indeed.

Beautifully written, thoroughly researched. I really enjoyed reading this post, and I agree 1000%

I love seeing all of the leaked content coming out, and watching the socialists in office and the media trying to gather themselves and react quickly. The more public this information becomes, the closer we come to saving this country from the abyss Obama and Clinton are pushing us towards.

Gee, Chuck, what did you accomplish while at the State Board of Elections?
If you accomplished ANYTHING at all, let's hear about it....

Every Citizen in North Carolina should be appalled by this deal. Cintra goes from state to state and builds these projects which are designed to fail. The business model does not work, they go bankrupt, but Cintra will actually make money, and you and I will pay the price. So much corruption. Visit WidenI77.org for more information. And Please help us get HB954 passed. Thank you!

Tony, a radio interview by Guy Rathbun about my book also aired on Memorial Day; you can hear it at:

Thanks again for honoring my uncle by reviewing my book!

Tony,
Thank you for posting this wonderful article about your experiences, about my uncle who lost his life in Hoc Mon, and about my book, The Box. I am in awe of meeting those who were in the same firefight that he was in! Thank you so much for contacting me after reading my book!

Protesting injustice is simply taking a stand. Protesting things that don't exist is disruption for the point of disruption.

Case in point: MLK, Jr leading protest marches for civil rights was taking a stand. BLM blocking highways and burning cities is disruption.

(commented on May 25th, 2016 @ 11:04 am)
Yes it would. Our parents' message got thru to us. Many think protesting is the Christian thing to do. Protesting is not biblical.

Obama has set the dial for his followers. The violence that has erupted at Trump rallies is nothing compared to the violence that will be seen if Trump wins. At least short term.

Thanks for your great article and standing up for what's right and just! I have quoted your article on my blog today "Why It's Time to Flush Bruce Springsteen Down The Collective Toilet". cherylkicksass.blogspot.com

This makes so much sense. We would save a ton of money and spend it only when absolutely necessary. I bet someone, somewhere could calculate how much this would save the country.

I'm not sure that touch typing class is needed. My 12 year old can type 60 words + 12 emojis per minute without any training.

We bring in MBAs at work and no one could possibly read their writing...but no one does because they never have to submit hand-written work. The good thing is that they can read their own hand-written words when they take notes. Most of them don't use paper anyway, as they type on their laptops or tablets.

Smartfella, what classes exist now that didn't exist at Jesuit High School back in the day? When a new class is needed, does the school have to drop a class to make room? I'm thinking yes, unless they extend the school day or get rid of summer vacation. Just a thought!

This is exactly why young people should have children sooner. Before you call me crazy, consider that with 2-3 kids in the back seat, there is no energy or attention to use for texting. Besides, young parents have to keep one hand free to wipe noses and apply a bit of discipline (both are allowed under most states driving laws). Clearly we need a campaign to encourage teen pregnancy, "Kids are the Kure for Kareless Driving!!"

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.

(commented on January 15th, 2024 @ 11:47 pm)
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.

(commented on January 15th, 2024 @ 11:33 pm)
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 don't think it was a cruel thing to do to give away your last $5 MPC.

Unless my memory is failing me, in 1965 we did not have MPC.
We used the Vietnamese Piaster.
I just looked up images of the Piaster to include in this comment & noticed it is spelled "Piastre" on the bills themselves.
You learn something new day.
Or should that be every 55 years?
Oops, it looks like I can't attach pictures to comments.
Take my word for it.

(commented on November 20th, 2020 @ 9:45 am)
Great read!

All these years later I found this article again. Interesting write-up. Good writing.

I just sent a message to Diane, thanking her for this excellent article. I wish every citizen would read this and put it into the public discourse. And thanks to you, Stan, for making her excellent blogs so available. This is the kind of election reform we need, that the false kind sent by the Progressives/Liberals.

(commented on April 28th, 2021 @ 10:25 am)
As usual, a very good analysis of an issue that seems to have gone by the wayside with our current progressive government. I commend Diane for her insightful work, which needs to be read by every North Carolinian. And, thank you, BCN, for publishing it

Good job! Sorry, I love that gravelly voice and his songwriting is heartfelt.

That North and South divide seems so inconsequential today, doesn't it? But it was real!

(commented on August 10th, 2018 @ 11:53 am)
In that you only get 20 minutes a week for the steep price of $279/mo, I don't think you would be in any danger of being bored or running out of things to do!!

(commented on August 6th, 2017 @ 1:32 pm)
Thanks, Stan. I'm having loads of fun. I even have a book signing scheduled in October in St. Simons for my new book! Since this one is written by the dog, Island Dog is hosting the event.
