These are tough times, and I'm afraid they will be getting tougher.

There are two roads: One is the path to fiscal solvency, the other is the path of Obama and everyone that really gets him.

I'm betting on fiscal solvency because it is the only path to preserve the Republic. I never did "get" Obama, and I'm having trouble with those that still "get him" after all that has happened and is about to happen before we are rid of him.

I'm still not sold on the fact that the Republicans can not be put to right.

But then again, I have always been an optimist.

As the first Republican, ever re-elected to the Beaufort County Commission, and one of the first Republicans ever elected here Downeast since Reconstruction, I have served with many pretend Republicans, who are more managed by thier own hubris rather than any set of principles.

Maybe through education, we can teach others what real Republicans look like and how real Republicans are guided by principle.

It is one of the reasons I, and my team, developed the infrastructure for BCN.

You know, I might have felt a slight bit different about this whole corrupt behavior thing if the Chairman had contacted me to attempt to assuage my expressed concerns.

But alas, we obviously are the poorer Republican relations from Downeast, where the grassroots concerns of those of us that built the base for Republicans in northeastern North Carolina just don't make the grade to matter.

Even though, I have spoken well of liars, this is no lie: Candidate Barrack Obama is right now as I put the finishing touches of this post, at 1:35 pm on Friday, July 19, 2013, actually talking about Trayvon - doing the "son" thing again - specifically identifying with the "African-American" collective conscience.

You cannot make this stuff up.

Speaking of impeaching fools: When will Candidate Obama be impeached?

In regards to AG Holder continuing his 15 month investigation in the George Zimmerman incident to determine whether he violated the late Trayvon Martin's civil rights, I still contend: If Trayvon wanted to inflict such a "beat down" on this overly curious doughy Hispanic man with a Jewish sir-name, he should have disarmed him first.

The first rule of martial arts training is to never use your skills to fight someone unless you are called to defend yourself, or someone else, from a menacing force. The second rule is to first take away their weapon.

Trayvon should have first taken away Zimmerman's weapon, and if he did not feel capable of doing so, he should have run like the wind.

I mean, how fast could a doughy Hispanic man with a Jewish sir-name be?

I almost always know the solution before I write that there is a problem. In fact, I expressed the solution in this post.

In today's America, the great racists are those that cry racist.

Well, my record is to spend smart money on narcotics interdiction, and I expect the Sheriff to continue to keep busting those who are involved with the illicit trade.

I despise narcotics and the stupidity that is so overwhelming by its users.

But two things you have to know: the Zimmerman case does not effect any of this, and I am not responsible for the streets of Washington, I only set policy for the funding of a sheriff that is only partly responsible for these societal ills.

The Sheriff, and I may not agree on everything, but the sheriff's dept. does a good job of busting the perpetrators of these evil tools.

God bless you and Shawn.

Please comment if you have any ideas to support this initiative, or if you wish to defend the contrary position.

This is such a rant, and it is Father's Day, so I deserve to just "get this off my chest." The real meat will come in the succeeding posts.

My apologies to the first 72 viewers that read this informative article from the Beaufort Observer over the last 4 hours. I uploaded this article before I left for Raleigh, and have just now noticed that I uploaded the videos incorrectly. Now they are corrected.

Since I was a young child, I have been exposed to the Reverend Billy Graham, especially when spending time with my grandmother, Ida Mae Dunn and her husband, Stanhope Dunn.

I have always been aware of the man's presence as a great evangelist, and as I grow older, the man's profound sincerity.

May God bless Billy Graham for we all have long been blessed by his beautiful spirit.

At one point this morning, the poll showed the special interest advocates up by 2% over the principled Republicans, and now the principled Republicans are up by over 9% points over the avowed special interest wonks. 9% is a big jump when there are this many votes - more than double the total of the next highest subscribed poll in BCN's short history of providing a polling service.

Good work real Republicans, but ... don't let up.

The RINOs are organizing, but they will not win Beaufort County's Republican Party without a fight.

The poll will be available for all to vote their convictions through the Beaufort County Republican Convention on March 26.

I'm not following your thinking.

We do pretty well in our linking, as we did in this article.

Lisa, you know and understand the essence of my plan.

Also, there is the promotion component and that is complicated, pseudo proprietary for our capabilities at SNI, but the crux of the Turnage is that it must be used, enjoyed.

The Turnage must be for everyone, and I know who those people are, and what kinds of music they enjoy and how to recruit the talent at a reasonable price. That actually ties back into what I can do for them on the net, a variable that others naturally struggle with.

Charles, my plan supports many partners with many talents coming together to save a landmark, make money and have fun doing it.

Not everyone has to have large sums of "skin in the game", even I don't want too vested; however, I want to be in it enough to push the plan through, and deal with the certain egos that come with some money.

Ego is a wonderful thing. Someone, like me, needs a certain sense of self, or they would have a hard time suiting up every day to deal with complex issues with the certain detractors who haven't a clue; however, I do realize that there are some who have an overextended sense of self, irrespective of whatever success they may have enjoyed.

The building, the hope, the promise, and the fun of the Turnage can be saved, but egos will have to be checked at the door, and my ideas will need to fully implemented for this plan to work.

There is one necessity, however: No government involvement at any level. My history is that government is not qualified to make good decisions. Not enough good, honest, sensible politicians - not by half.
