It seems that in the rush of the holidaze, I missed this little gem back in December at The Inside Scoop. NC-Rep Cary Allred (R-Alamance), has been trying to contact his US Congressman to get something taken care of for five years. On Dec. 3, at the Liberty town parade, Allred asked Rep. John Blust, who had been riding with our congressman, Howard Coble, "Would you please tell that a**hole to call me?" Apparently Coble finally got the message.

Jay Ovitorre attacked in Yes Weekly

This morning, Yes Weekly, a newspaper serving the Greensboro/Triad area published a whiny little rant from columnist Jim Longworth, who has declared Democratic candidate for NC-06, Jay Ovittore, unworthy of air time on his little TV show "Triad Today." Never mind that most of the 6th district has never heard of Longworth or Triad Today - to my mind, his refusal to give equal time to a candidate if he so requests may actually be a violation of NC Election Law. That is something I will check into when I get home.

2 billion dollars for Wind Power...so that we can burn domestic natural gas in our cars...I think.

TrueMeckDem on Myers Park Pat

"My opinion of Pat has changed over the years. I used to think he was truly a man of the people but the longer he has been mayor, the less I think of him.

As with most cities, Charlotte has three political parties: Dem, Rep, and Chamber of Commerce. Pat is definitely the puppet of the COC here. What is good for business is good for Charlotte and Pat ... very personable guy, he has gotten a bunch of Dems in these parts to vote for him but I don't trust him."
