When you take a close look at Jordan's campaign finance reports from his recent primary you will find some big time developers from the Raleigh area having donated big time money to his campaign. I'm guessing introducing this bill will have them lined up with their check books again.<br /><br />Of the people, by the people, and for the people......I'm sure I've heard that somewhere.<br /><br />Lew Hendricks - Yes the Lew that ran against Jordan in the primary - Still consistently putting my name on every word I say.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194583.post-73729937420565779842016-06-27T08:29:37.935-05:002016-06-27T08:29:37.935-05:00I have often said that the whole concept of irony ...I have often said that the whole concept of irony is lost on the GOP. Here's only one more example. Parading around as the party of limited government, the GA (super)majority, and their hypocritical tool Gov. McCrory, with the ideological underpinning of Art Pope and his ilk in ALEC, actually are completely under the spell of the fascist model of the corporate state. If you don't know what that is do a little reading in what happened to Italy under Mussolini.

Not sure why Jordan feels compelled to write this bill - clearly in Watauga, BOA does whatever the business wants, citizens and laws be d*****.<br /><br />We need radical change in NCGA - please vote out anyone who thinks centralized control is the best. NCGOP's version of USSR's centralized government has no place in our county or our state. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
