"True Republican": You are NOW given your space here to speak your truth, and I presume you sincerely believe it to be true.

My advice to you: Make sure you get that truth right from the onset, especially when making strong allegations against substantive people.

The Democratic Socialists have this nasty habit of projecting their foibles upon their opposition in grand hyperbolic style, while continuing to practice their classic terrible behavior; then screaming at those honest folk among us, 'they must NOT speak the truth of what is real.' Regardless of the inconvenience of blunt force truth, tt is the guaranteed right of the public, and a Free Press to counter that type of dishonest behavior, regardless of political party ... so Beaufort County GOP, you will not be above that careful reproach, a correcting discussion of what is real.

Here at Eastern NC NOW, we will always allow the public the Free space (though moderated in post format) to shine a bright light on what is real, while disdaining the hypocrisy of abject dishonesty at every turn where it rears its fat ugly head. Here on this massive, highly functioning platform, truth reigns supreme.

Freedom of speech is the right of every American citizen, and the reserved right for a constant and correcting Free Press, which we have always been, and shall always remain. We welcome all that appreciate that reality, and all who wish to share their careful, but accurate voice of what they know to be true.

Thanks for the satirical support Wyatt.

I have always enjoyed your Georgia Peach Approach to speaking your truth.

My truth up here is a bit more complicated, where even elected Republicans have a very difficult time knowing how to pay attention to what us real. I reckon the learning curve is a bit too steep for some.

Having said that, and since that nasty business of the allocating of business shell game, there were three new school board members that now have a chance to prove whether they can keep their eye on the ball, because this whole governing of the public's interest surely is NO game to be flippantly played.

My individual and dependent advice to all three new members is to start taking all points of positions within their new found responsibilities very seriously.

So far, all three are doing just that.

Authoritarian Cooper will never be considered as an education governor; not with the diminishment of public education in his more that 6 years of governor.

Buzz, regarding your complaint of the BCS website, when we, (Symbiotic Networks) developed and maintained the school district's website, prior to the New Providers from Far, Far away, this inability to find pertinent information would Not have occurred, not unless the schools wanted it as such. It is simply just a process of organizing the Search parameters of the site's databases by, in part, correctly establishing key words, and then leading the public to use the intra site Search function properly.

A case in point is that BCS's former Superintendent, Don Phipps (who personally requested our services to significantly upgrade their website), thought it wise to organize the School District's School Policy data, which was in a large PDF format (basically an image file to a site's search engine) to one that could be quickly Searched by subject. To accomplish this, we reduced the PDF file to simple text, so that a multiplicity of desired subjects could be Searched by common terms, which meant many keywords and phrases were strategically loaded to trigger the Search tool to properly Search the site's expanded database, and do it in a many that was efficient.

Continuing in explanation, when Symbiotic Networks created and maintained the school's website, we gave the school system the utmost in quality of workmanship, and would be doing i still if we had their charge to do so. In our 5 years of creating and maintaining their website, we strove to excel in every measure, and, ironically, did so at a far lower cost to the public than what is being expended now.

When allowed to rebid that contract, we underbid the successful bidder by 16,900.00 over a projected 3 year period (this is my minimum estimation from the data that I was provided, it could, however, be more now). In this case the lower bid, by the local provider, was not successful, and the Beaufort County School Board sought services elsewhere, which is their right to do so ... even at the higher projected cost, even if the quality of product is in NO WAY superior.

To try to make sense of why we lost this bid, under the school's new management, we considered that the quality of our workmanship may not have measured up to their current desired standards; however, after our own evaluation of their New Site, by their New Provider, and at the aforementioned greater expense, we are most happy and proud to advise the public that their former local, less expensive provider (Beaufort County's own Symbiotic Networks, locally owned and operated) of said service was, and still is, easily capable of that measure of quality and innovation that any school system should receive ... and should demand.

Thanks RH for yanking this far flung conversation back into the truth zone.

A real Beaufort County GOP would have vetted its candidates, which would have precluded Fake Frankie from running for county commissioner as a Republican.

An unknowledgeable local GOP is working hard to destroy what Republican brand that we have left. As someone who helped build the local Republican Party here in Beaufort County, that is a tough thing to watch, as I am forced to swallow that bitter pill each election as Frankie does his Democrat dance while this local GOP sucks up the flavor of his "step and fetch it" for the Democratic Socialists.

Without "Hoods PAC," I would NOT have been the leading Republican, in terms of votes won and gained, on the ticket. With "Hood's PAC," and another good Democrat running along with the Leftist Commissioner Ed Booth (Frankie's coalition member), Tandy Dunn may would have had enough votes to take Fake Frankie out.

And, you are right RH, we would have had a Republican majority, hopefully then moving Randy Walker more to the Right, thus making Beaufort County a far better governed county.

This is the real of it, the world outside of Alias Fools calling the Honorable Hood Richardson "liar!"

Democratic Socialists want open borders, especially on the Southern Border, in order to invite an "extreme disruption to the demographic stability" of these United States; the Democratic Socialists have described this disobedience to applicable law as "The Browning of America," which I have heard the leadership of the Democratic Socialists decry on multiple occasions.

If you have a problem with the Biden-Harris Administration's /Democratic Socialists' expressed political ideals of noncompliance with our United States immigration codes, please do NOT ever vote for these lying fools EVER again.

If you want to fix the problem, DO NOT be part of the problem by supporting these wanton non patriot political swamp creatures.

And while this goes without repeating, I will reiterate: It does NO good to support RINOs, especially here in Beaufort County, where they appear to be in abundance in political positions, and as self-considered as political players.

Big Bob: I can't speak for "The Hood" (yes really), but I do not "suffer fools gladly;" not in this sorry political climate where fools abound.

If that equates to "sporting above average egos," you might better up your game.

Donna: You must really despise Commissioner Hood Richardson's Conservative values and consistent practices of fiscal restraint and vigilant oversight because you are repeating yourself from yesterday.

The problem with Commissioner Hood Richardson, as someone who knows The Hood about as well as anyone drawing breath in today's World, is a two forked proposition; it is the way he rushes to find solutions to problems.

The first of Hood's "problem" is knowledge; he tends to understand many certain issues on their surface, and if he deems them to be important to what is his perceived charge, he delves deeper. That process is where the Commissioner's problem, with certain people, begins ... they simply are not use to that approach; the digging deeper of it, searching around at the core of it.

The second problem for Commissioner Richardson of that "two forked proposition," where his problems begin with certain individuals, appears when The Hood's search for whatever honesty that should be easily manifested, unfortunately, is not readily revealed; then, at that point, The Hood does what is within his nature: He starts delving deeper for whatever he can find that resembles what is real, and if he does not substantively find it, The Hood Problem ensues, the magnification of what is known or unknown that should be.

So, in a nutshell, regarding the problem of The Hood for certain others: His curiosity leads, nay, forces him to dig far too deep in public matters, which he considers to be his charge to do so; then he quickly exhibits the temerity to be abjectly honest about what he discovers. Therefore, the "two forked proposition" of Hood Richardson, and at some leveled measure of discourse, this Commissioner will not abide other politicians, or their minions believing themselves to also be political players, their corrupt behavior that Hood perceives to have revealed.

These words that I deliver here and NOW are about the best I can muster in explaining what I know about The Hood. I am sorry, as one of The Commissioner's most loyal constituents, that others might find his behavior somewhat inconvenient, but honesty and diligence can often be an impediment to some, while considered a blessing by others.

The moral here is: Never underestimate the bonecrushing stupidity of a Democratic Socialist politician when they have misidentified that their cause is righteous, and that their pathetic, unwavering narrative must be preserved at all costs.

Here you have a Leftist elected fool attacking Liberal Journalists, who still possess the temerity to advocate that the First Amendment matters.

The perceived transformation of Kevin McCarthy may be a glorious thing, as if guided by the hand of God, and I pray that might be true.

Additionally, I pray that Speaker McCarthy remains deep in these expressed convictions because the fight to save this Constitutional Republic from the forces of an insidious evil has just begun.

Ditto Danny ditto.

There was so much fraud before, during, and after the 2020 General Election, it was near impossible to throw a stone and NOT hit some manner of Election Fraud perpetrated by some Democratic Socialist lackey.

You know what is the first step to alleviate Election Fraud(?) ... Recognize it.
