Commented on What’s the status of abortion legislation?Big Bob you may be right ... for some Republicans here in North Carolina.
You neglected, however, to leave out the third leg of that proverbial stool of exceptions for abortions, in which you did state "rape and incest," but that neglected third exception would be "severe health risks," which is still an exception here in North Carolina. The abortion conundrum is the most difficult issue to legislate, since it does involve the restriction of a woman's Free Will in lieu of the natural protection of an unborn child. For any lawmaker in any state, it is tantamount to the lawmaking conundrum of when to exercise the Death Penalty for crimes against humanity. I see no difference in the severity in this level of judgement for general assembly lawmakers here in North Carolina. It is such an awesome responsibility, it might would be wise for Democratic Socialists to NOT make such an issue of Abortion, and instead better consider the many smaller laws regulating the conduct of who we are, and who we could become as a People. In that simarially awesome regard, issues of Abortion, and even environmentally "Saving the Planet for Human Usage" would take care of themselves by US all becoming better stewards of how we conduct ourselves, thus in taking care of OUR most precious things. One thing I do know for sure, our better actions, by listening to our "better angels," would cut down on what I like to call the Grand Hypocrisy of Others, which right NOW is at an all time high; with the most frivolous among US generally being the greatest hypocrites in continual practice.

Commented on The rise of the Special Interest RepublicansThanks Steve for you kind comment here on John Steed's post, an excellent read by the way.
I have always appreciated your support and you wise counsel, and will always consider you my constituent of the first order ... You never ask for anything other than my honest efforts, and to think it all through before taking action. I appreciate this type of support beyond all, and I too endeavor to emulate that support you have shown me in my actions with other assertive politicians as their good constituent myself. In conclusion, I consider you a great patriot in that you, by these actions, help me to be the best commissioner that is within my abilities to have become. Thank-you Steve, and will continue to try to "pay it forward" when certain politicians show a glimpse that they are worthy.

Commented on The Bistro West Peachtree NW Atlanta GeorgiaThanks for sharing Andtea.
I guess we all feel a little older now that Gordon Lightfoot has passed, and not too long ago Jerry Jeff Walker, both wrote songs that will never be forgotten.

Commented on Iconic Folk Singer Gordon Lightfoot Dead At 84Gordon Lightfoot was the Bob Dylan of Canada, and I will always consider "If You Could Read my Mind" as one of the most poignant, if not the most poignant, unrequited love songs ever written ... like "lightning in bottle" when created
and sung when Gordon was in his prime, this melody is timeless. It is a song that I choose to play on my Pawn Shop Guitar #1, and sing once in a great while when I am especially thankful for being married to just one fine woman for nearly 45 years. Sometimes, I even get close to that Lightfoot lilt in his pained voice just as a homage to such a great song, so well performed. "If I could read your mind, love What a tale your thoughts could tell Just like a paperback novel The kind the drugstore sells When you reach the part where the heartaches come The hero would be me But heroes often fail And you won't read that book again Because the ending's just too hard to take I'd walk away like a movie star Who gets burned in a three way script Enter number two, a movie queen to play the scene Of bringing all the good things out in me But for now, love, let's be real I never thought I could act this way And I've got to say that I just don't get it I don't know where we went wrong But the feeling's gone and I just can't get it back" - Gordon Lightfoot

Big Bob, your "straw man argument" regarding this platform's complete advocation for Free Speech is decidedly weak.
Eastern NC NOW moderates violent rhetoric, but not Free Speech, providing the speaker convinces us that they believe what they say to be true. These are our "house rules" that will remain in effect as long as this platform exists.

Yeah John, like the Fascist group Antifa, and to a lesser extent the Racist group Black Lives Matter, both responsible for a major upsurge in Blacks being murdered since The Summer of George.
It is like the Idiot Left planned the chaos, but what they did not plan is that far greater numbers of Blacks and Latinos NOW voting Republican because of the public safety issue.

My political class wants the border closed, and my political /socio-economic class will only support politicians that understand that maxim.
Also, we don't talk about Racism; mainly because those that do rail about it on a regular basis tend to be Racists, or at least bigots ... a furtive projection of their ideals ... that are mostly just plain dumb.

Big Bob: You Leftists have a problem with two issues that are imperative to sustain humankind: One is knowledge, and the other is work.
This is primarily why I never trust a Leftist to make a reasonable decision, and why Leftists have all but ruined our public education system. Big Bob: Have you never done any physical work? Are you and your kind above getting you hands dirty while breaking a sweat?

Big Bob: Why did you say "Big Money on Both Sides" controls the open Southern Border, yet it was President Trump that worked diligently against the evil actions of the Non Patriot Left to close the border?
I really don't think you understand the math of these issues, while certainly not complicated, does appears to be so for you Leftists.

Think on this grim reality of what passes as American Democratic Socialist politicians: If Donald Trump was president right now, Democratic Socialist politicians, hypocrites all, would be clamoring to close the Southern Border by any means necessary, including a building a tremendous "Wall," while suing for Impeachment for yet a third, maybe a fourth time, this hypothetical reason = Mr. Trump as the embodiment of an "Accessory to Human Trafficking," just like today's Corrupt Idiot Joe, who actually is THEIR pathetic president, HERE and NOW, in President Trump's stead.
Of course, the non journalist corrupt corporate media, in full reality propagandists all, would be hypothetically bleating like ignorant beasts for Trump's blood right along with their non patriot brethren - the elected class of Democratic Socialist Fools, they that represent their kind here NOW in the land of The Many Blind Fools. WAKE UP America! See what is evident all about; true evil is afoot.

I was in a county commissioner meeting today that went on for nearly 7 hours.
A good bit of that time was dedicated to talking about Beaufort County education, which is a most important issue, but one that I did not proffer to the group; however, after reading this post and these many comments, I fully recognize why that topic was deliberately broached by other county commissioners. This public involvement shown here on this publication is a powerful indicator that there is a concerned, but good citizenry here in Beaufort County, who wish to make a positive difference in effective change to the status quo ... Thank-you good people; you are a service to our community.

Commented on Beaufort County Republican Party applies choke holdI have said this before, and I will need to say this again, and still again.
Abandon all hope that there is, or could be a real Beaufort County GOP; not until real Republicans organize to create one. Now is the another leg of this three legged stool. The communicative infrastructure is well in place when the will is ready. Now, it is certainly time for the willful to heed that call and to go to work.

Well Big Bob, going forward from the Republican Party, I don't think you will find any serious candidates for any serious office that resembles Authoritarian Cooper or Hussein Obama, so your affinity for the so-called moderate Republican will never be satisfied.
You can, however, look to the Beaufort County Commission for a bevy of Left leaning so-called Republican politicians; nominal by choice in their abilities to govern; constant in their desire to reach "bipartisan" agreement with their Leftist Coalition Caucus members.
