WHY do NC democrackkks even NEED to spend this kind of money, when they already control the state elections?

Hard choices?? You raised the sales tax, the income tax.... Any idiot could have come up with that in 5 minutes. Why did it take so long?? Enjoying that per diem at the taxpayer's expense, I bet. How is it Dumpling can afford a new communications director?

Burlington's economy must be booming:

"When I walk down the street in Alamance County, 12 out of every 100 people, they're not working right now," (Ingle) said.

They've got a shocking number of people working in Burlington considering that the national employment-population ratio is at 59.4. That means that 40 out of every 100 people walking down the street in the rest of the country are not working. I'm amazed that Burlington is doing so well!

Money (Appropriations Chair) can buy much with these "Leadership" Groups of African-americans. It is sad...

I tell ya, being on the appropriations committee can work wonders.

What confuses me is that Dalton is against affirmative action, against women's rights, and against the environment.

I hope the African American community sees through his mask.
