Dear Congressman Price
Submitted by James on Sat, 02/09/2008 - 10:24am.
I've heard you make the case that impeachment proceedings in the US House of Representatives would be a waste of time and a distraction. And you've heard me ask the question: distraction from what? It's clear that Congress is mired in a stalemate that will not end until Democrats have a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate. And in the meantime, only a few matters of significance are moving through the legislative pipeline.
David Price has another challenger . . .
Submitted by James on Thu, 12/27/2007 - 4:08pm.A Cary neurosurgeon-turned-software-entrepreneur-turned-closet-Libertarian-turned-Republican named William "BJ" Lawson is jumping into the 4th district race with a flurry of contradictions that would be baffling to any careful observer. In case you're not up to speed on the 4th district, Lawson will have to take out Orange County GOP Chairman Augustus Cho for the honor of getting his butt kicked by Congressman David Price.
More from his own website.
GOP Candidate Cho Gets Another My View Column
Submitted by BrianR on Wed, 12/26/2007 - 2:08am.The December 9, 2007 Chapel Hill News 'My View' column titled GOP chair Cho to challenge Price contained the following:
A former Presbyterian minister and tae kwon do instructor, Cho is a writer raising two children in Chapel Hill. He has been writing a monthly My View column for the Chapel Hill News. His column will go on hiatus during his run.
Now on December 26, 2007 Mr Cho has another column in the Chapel Hill News titled 'Soul patrol.' (It's not online yet. I just pulled it out of my driveway at 12AM.) At the end of Mr. Cho's column today is this excuse,
This is his last My View for now. Cho's column is on hiatus as he campaigns for the Republican nomination for U.S. House District 4.
To me this column contradicts the first one. His column was supposed to "go on hiatus." Second, its a clear violation of the News' journalistic principles. Will Congressman Price get a My View column so he can promote his personal values too?
H RES 847 - Because we have to pander to Christians, don't we?
Submitted by Grace on Thu, 12/13/2007 - 7:05pm.Can you believe it? I bet you can. I actually bet most people don't really mind it either. But the House of Representatives voted to officially recognize the importance of Christmas and the Christian faith.

Kill the contracts
Submitted by James on Mon, 10/29/2007 - 9:57am.David Price has an excellent guest column in the Miami Herald today (hat-tip to the Dome). The column summarizes the legislation he's championed to make sure Blackwater and other contractors are subject to the rule of law. Along the way, he covers important facts that make this column worth bookmarking:
During the first Gulf War, an estimated 9,200 contractors accompanied 500,000 American troops into the theater of operation. We had about one contractor for every 50 troops. In the current Iraq war, contractors actually outnumber troops. A recent analysis by the Associated Press showed that our government employs more than 180,000 contractors -- many of them armed -- and just 163,000 military personnel.
Two NC Democrats; One fiddling while one tries to save the Union? You be the Judge.
Submitted by Marshall Adame on Sat, 10/27/2007 - 8:49am.In today’s N&O Under the Dome section there was two interesting, but separate stories about the activities of two Democratic Congressmen, Heath Shuler and David Price.
Now don’t get me wrong, I am not denigrating one, or the other, but it was interesting to see where the priorities of each were relative to the interest each devoted their time this week. I am an analyst by profession, so maybe I tend to see more than is actually there. Or do I?
