From what I can tell, it seems that everything is coming around in a full circle and biting him in the ass!! He has stated, ooohh sooo many lies! If you all only knew!!! I tell you, it's Karma! He uses a lot of bibical scriptures but does not practice what he writes or what comes out of his mouth. He is not able to hide behind the bible anymore. Keeping a close eye on the "saga".

Also, why the hatred at the Independent. You would figure the Republicans would want to know where this man got his PhD. and if it is a legitimate PhD.
Then again, I thought they would care about him being a wife-beater. Turns out they didn't.

June 29, 2009 - 3:18pm — PaulTerrellI question the fairness of the Independent. After all how many Republicans did they endorse last year and why aren't their stories ever going after Democrats?
Putting the Independent in a story here raises their credibility and lowers that of the News and Observer.
