JW-It must be getting slow and boring up there in Boone with the snow and nothing else to do. To post an obscure article about a campaign event having the picture photo-shopped. Panic time in the mountains.
No, JW illustrates that the Republican party cheats, lies and steals while claiming to be God's party. This morning's national press has three new stories of top Republicans operatives being caught in disseminating lies, one has already resigned.
J.W. Williamson was the founding editor in 1972 of the Appalachian Journal: A Regional Studies Review, which he edited until July of 2000. He has taught college classes in Appalachian history, cultural politics, and literature, and he has lectured widely on the pop-culture history of "Appalachia" in the American consciousness. His books include Interviewing Appalachia, Southern Mountaineers in Silent Films, and Hillbillyland: What the Mountains Did to the Movies and What the Movies Did to the Mountains. He has won the Thomas Wolfe Award given by the Western North Carolina Historical Society, the Laurel Leaves Award given by the Appalachian Consortium, a special Weatherford Award given by Berea College, and the Cratis Williams-James Brown Award given by the Appalachian Studies Association.

Fake Pictures, Fake Momentum, Fake Candidate.
....the do anything, say anything candidate... anything for the expediency of the vote.
Welcome to the "post truth" era of politics as a result of the Citizens United decision.
To paraphrase, "This campaign will not be run by fact checkers"..... says it all, no?
