It’s just come to my attention that a handful of Republican legislators, including Charlotte’s own Ruth Samuelson, have introduced the kind of legislation we thought we’d seen the end of after last November’s landslide election. They’ve introduced HB 495, the euphemistically-titled “Solar Jobs Bill.” The bill requires Duke Power and Progress Energy to double the amount of electricity it purchases from […]
The following opinion piece from me was submitted, but NOT printed, by the Charlotte Obfuscator. I thought it was worth sharing…. Several of the Charlotte Observer’s “Opinion” writers simply can’t understand why anyone would want to turn down money from the federal government for a new rail boondoggle…er, “project” from Charlotte to Raleigh. (The fact that the governors […]

In my last post, “This Abortion’s On You,” I reported the fact both Charlotte and Mecklenburg County offer taxpayer funded abortion “benefits” in their respective group health plans to city and county employees, and have done so for at least the past 25 years. I mentioned that I had asked all three GOP Councilman – […]
I was outraged at what this racist got away with saying as factual at the recent county commissioners meeting. It seems every one on the board is afraid of him because he is a black racist. Why hasn’t Jim Pendergraph gone after him. I’m really disappointed at Jim for not answering him. Both Dunlap and […]
When President Obama came to office two years ago, gun stores across the country saw a dramatic surge in sales. According to FBI figures for the week of November 3 to 9, 2008, the bureau received more than 374,000 requests for background checks on gun purchasers — a nearly 49 percent increase over the same […]
