No proof of any of it - he just doesn't like conservatives. We get it. Next time put some substance into what you write as opposed to a bunch of hateful remarks and catch phrases from the leftist media like "big money." BTW, the media spends far more of its "big money" on democratic candidates than republicans. But, of course, since you agree with their "causes" that is okay - the ends in your opinion justify the means. No wonder JW had you guest write - you fit right in with he and his hate spewing wife.smarter than a democratnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194583.post-77346652825780861062010-09-28T10:04:13.520-05:002010-09-28T10:04:13.520-05:00Cullie's no richer now than when he first went...Cullie's no richer now than when he first went into office 4 years ago, so there's no way he's 'used his office for personal gain'. The land swap was a federal deal, not state. And the hunting on Sunday thing, I understand, was to allow local jurisdictions to make that determination rather than to have an edict about it come down from on high. I don't know where Tarleton personally stands on Sunday hunting. <br /><br />Heck, I don't even know where I stand. But then I'm in church Sundays (as is Cullie - I see him and Sylvia headed in to church most Sundays as I'm headed in across the street), so it doesn't affect me.Opinionatednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194583.post-85505595356766356162010-09-28T06:24:45.117-05:002010-09-28T06:24:45.117-05:00He supported several things such as a land trade i...He supported several things such as a land trade in Blowing Rock and how the national forest was to be managed in a manner that was a conflict of interest .

Wilson acted like he deserved to stay there forever. Cullie was an articulate, hard working opponent who was willing to listen, work hard, and consult his constituents. Cullie raised money all over the district, got to know the issues, appealed to moderate, thinking people of both parties, and very deservedly won the seat from which he has helped serve the needs of all the people he represents. Do you read the weekly reports he emails his constituents? You should, they will let you know the kind of man you are smearing. I am proud to call Cullie my representative in Raleigh and hope the voters will not be swayed fy the false propaganda being put out by the other side.brotherdochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03597543573448439126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6194583.post-8701977838798502422010-09-26T12:41:10.747-05:002010-09-26T12:41:10.747-05:00This thread reminds you of how Cullie Tarleton'...This thread reminds you of how Cullie Tarleton's seat was purchased for him by out of district money when he outspent Wilson three to one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
