I was wondering whether it were an April Fool's joke, too, because I think it would be a hell of a thrill to see the Wayans Brothers -- or even just ONE of 'em, here. They're wonderful, hilarious, smart and energizing. If they're really going to show up to stump for Obama, HELL, we all benefit.

I would NOT miss the chance to see these guys.

Hope it won't no April Fool joke~

You sure this isn't an April Fool's joke?

Seriously, they can't find anyone a little bit more prominent than the Wayans brothers?

Which incarnation of Wayan will this be? Mary-Kate or Ashley?

They can't make it down to Fayetteville State?! I see how it is, Wayans...

Thank you for taking note of our report on faculty compensation in the UNC system. Please note, however, that the report was issued by the John William Pope Center for Higher Education Policy (www.popecenter.org), not by the John Locke Foundation. It is correct that the author of the paper, Jon Sanders, is a research analyst with the Locke Foundation, but he wrote the paper for the Pope Center. The full report is available at www.popecenter.org.

If I write a "report," will you publish it, too?

I have one in the works called the LPRI (Lies Per "Report" Index) which studies the outputs of the multi-million dollar opinion manufacturing organization you all are so fond of covering.

Sanders said . . . "the study alone would not answer the question."

Exactly what question will this "report" answer?

If the Dome thought this was important news, why not just go to the source (state government) and do the analysis yourself? Why does the entire N&O organization allow itself to be used as a soapbox for Art Pope's paid extremists?

I really don't get it.
