Lt. Dan was right. Roy IS treating us like five-year-olds!
Gov. Doofus has decided to sic Dr. Mandy and her DHHS stormtroopers into our business. Right now, he’s focusing on Moore County. The fact that he’s doing this right before an election to an overwhelmingly Republican county is, um, interesting: …
Charlotte paper endorsing ALL DEMS for Council of State (with one exception)
The Charlotte Post bills itself as “the voice of the black community” in Charlotte. And like most black voters in the state, its staff tends to lean Democrat. But this headline caught my attention (and that of a few other people): Hmmm….
Post-sex scandal revelations, Cunningham STILL leads Tillis

‘Lesser of Two Evils’: Surprising number of women sticking with Cunningham over Tillis

Drive-by media silent on Laura Leslie’s social media, but ALL OVER Mark Robinson’s

‘Occupy Elaine’ shills for Chi-Com political / intelligence front
Every four years, the heavily-embalmed Elaine Marshall is wheeled out to talk about how she needs four more years because she’s good for business. We caught her praising ‘Occupy Wall Street’ in one past election. Now, she’s graduated to praising the work of The…
