Don't forget to bring the torches and pitchforks! Maybe you could burn some "witches" while you're there!?
What a load of astro-turf Dick Armey based CRAP.
The "flat-earth" society is really having a ball shooting themselves in the foot this time. You Glenn Beck, Hannity, O'Reilly disciples are Mentally ill.

Where would they all be without Art Pope's money?

What about the children?

Oh, this is just too rich. Leading Conservatives in our state have some screwy priorities. Getting kids involved in a rolling political circus is okay:

Join Americans for Prosperity and the John Locke Foundation for a special open house as the Patients First “Express” gets ready to hit the road. Bring the kids and help make “Hands off My Health Care” Signs. Get the latest information on the health care battle!

But being addressed by the duly elected President of the United States is not appropriate for them:

N.C. Republican Party chairman Tom Fetzer sent out a press release late today calling on N.C. school systems to avoid President Barack Obama’s speech on education scheduled for noon Tuesday.

"This speech is clearly political in nature and has no place in the classroom," Fetzer said in a prepared statement. "Our focus should be improving our students’ test scores, not the President’s approval rating."

Their logic has gone from mildly fractured to surreal...

First of all Nat Turner is a historical figure and no one has the right to use the name of such. So your first ding is for stealing that identity. Second, I do not hear you making the same claims about MoveOn.org. So your second ding is your a hypocrite. It seems you need to educate yourself about Van Jones and the many other radical and extreme advisors Obama has appointed around him. Put the kool-aid down sir and educate yourself. Remember what happened to Germany in 1933 when they put blind faith and loyalty into one man.

These people could care less about prosperity or the misfortune of others. They are bigots who want Obama to fail. Nothing more, nothing less.

Is it opposites day???

Why would a group calling itself "Americans for Prosperity" be *against* legislation that will fight the leading cause of personal bankrupcies -- the current heath care industry?

Of course these are the same people who feel their right to boo superseedes other people's right to address their representatives, so we should not be surpried.

It is sad that they can "rally" now in Larry Kissell's district, but couldn't be bothered when it was represented by the king of anti-prosperity (except for his family), Robin Hayes.

North Carolina's motto is "To be, not to seem". Unforutnately, "Americans for Prosperity" are not.

Thank you for learning your lesson Mr. Protzman.

How did Mark Johnson put it in his last email to me? Oh yes.

Policing comments is an unwelcome and subjective duty.

In this economy, I haven't heard someone admit how much they hate their job so succinctly since Burr did last week.

Also...

Your post, in slightly more artful language, said Dallas Woodhouse was stupid and unaccomplished. Nothing more.

Well then. I'll use the slightly more artful language of reporters that hate their job.

I think Dallas Woodhouse is stupid and unaccomplished. Nothing more.

Protzman, are the people who are going to attend the SEANC Union healthcare tour also crazies? Or are you just a hypocrite. Apparently Protzman is in that far left sphere of thinking that anyone who disagrees with him is a moron.

The SEIU Union member wear purple shirts, so be on the watch for them. And please bring numbers with you so they will not attempt to violate your civil rights and beat you up. It is sad when it comes down to people on the left always personally attacking anyone who expresses their Constitutional Rights.

Comment deleted by James in response to a request from Dallas Woodhouse.

Apparently, Mr. Woodhouse was not the bus driver for the AFP tour, as reported here. Nor does he believe that the crazies who attended town hall meetings were planted there by Nancy Pelosi. Glad to have both of those important issues cleared up.

not me, sorry...but I feel Dallas' embarrassment having a family member that is affiliated with the ORIGINAL party of SLAVERY...

In the 1930s, leftwinger Hitler mandated government healthcare.

Healthcare is NOT a RIGHT nor a FUNCTION of OUR government.

My response: deleted!

Mark, you are really smart. I guess the Republican poster named "BitterExDemocrat" is right and I'm just a Nazi affiliated with slavery.

So glad you parsed these rules out and explained where the News & Observer is coming from now. Thank you. I'll try to be a better insane person more aligned to your point of view before offering my next opinion.

I get it now. It's the same photo stuck between two stories, only it has nothing to do with this one. That is fair and balanced.

Re: Sibling punditry

GiggleBox — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 16:18:16 -0400

Thanks for the photo. Which Woodhouse is that?

The one with a point or the one with a 20-sided die in his pocket?

Hey, Mark Johnson has a point!

GiggleBox — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 16:04:24 -0400

Maybe Mark Johnson is right and I should have my comment deleted when it makes fun of "fair and balanced" reporting like propping up the brother of that guy that actually matters, but...

Here's the info on why Dallas is the heart felt favorite of "fair and Balanced" Mark Johnson....

FACT!:

Dallas Woodhouse has been involved in North Carolina politics for many years.

Say no more Art pope front group. I totally get Mark Johnson's point now.
