Civility is big with me. Bigger than many other differences.

Politics is only nasty when nasty people are involved.

And for the record, I oppose Agenda 21 and any efforts by anyone anywhere at the sacrifice of our individual sovereignty and the honest social contract we make with specific levels of our federalized government.

Mr Cayton, et al,

Challenging a principle or an action on its merits should always be within the realm of fair play.

But placing blame for a firing circle when my candidacy and my person has been under attack since day three (many, many unfounded attacks, some withdrawn from the internet and some not. At one point 50% of my opponents website was dedicated to me, including a whole page because I was "whining" about her attacking me after we agreed to run a clean race) and then suddenly when my campaign responds, there is a response from you?

Where were you two months ago? You certainly weren't chastising your candidate for her personal negative (and mostly false) attacks.

You also seem to notice when one candidate was picked by a faction in Raleigh, but not your own candidate by another faction in Raleigh despite that she admitted that she was selected on tape in your forum.

You want to put forth a legislative candidate who's best trick is just attacking and sidelining other members of the party?

When Pat McCrory wins, when I win, when half a dozen other Republican candidates win that have been polarized by her campaign (and her choosing folks who she herself called RINOs only a year ago over other local candidates)... how is she going to come back from that? She cannot then support me, or Pat McCrory, or any of the half dozen others she has been sidelining because she has been tearing us down during the primary?

Before we started this race we agreed that we would run our own clean races and then whoever would win, would then support the other in the general elections. Be honest. That cannot happen any longer after months of attacks.

By all means, please criticize the application of conservative principles. Everyone certainly should do that. But this hypocrisy of trying to lay blame on others for this rift has got to stop.

This rift was started by one person and one campaign and it most certainly was not mine or the people who realized towards the end of the primary campaign that I was the strongest Constitutional Conservative candidate and then in turn backed me.

You cannot turn back time unfortunately. Perhaps Raleigh should have made a better "selection".

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.

Thank you, Michael, for your kind remarks about my column. "Bunk" is an extraordinarily mild description compared to the venomous language that socialists, aka progressives and communists usually employ to critique them. I have interviewed many Baltic immigrants who are "adult" and I find their opinions more valid than the students you claim would laugh at the idea of Obama the Socialist. If you had read the article without bias you should deduce that it was meant as a warning to America which is headed down the same path as a desperate Europe. BTW Did you know that Marx was really just a layabout who lived off his parents? No wonder he found socialism so appealing. It's the perfect system for the OWS generation.

Maybe Civitas can use my research find an answer to your question. Brian Balfour is using it in today's Blog - almost word for word.

Civitas was able to use the info (attachment 990 Info) that I shared with you. Both De Luca and Balfour are using it to dig deeper into the Rural Center.

"...Within hours, Pope’s office hand-delivered to Hall’s replacement the order that demanded the agency stop spending state money.

Pope wrote that the administration is considering “the further step” of seeking recovery of all state funds now held by the center, an amount that may top $100 million.

The order includes a halt to any state money going to grantees or to the center’s employees. It was not immediately clear, according to a Rural Center spokeswoman, whether the funding freeze affected Hall’s severance pay...."

I guess the BCC-100/Braddy Bath property is on hold.
