Rev. Barber Afraid To Lunch Alone… Wah.

Posted on May 17, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

In the continued effort to ‘cripple and eviscerate’, no stone is being left unturned by the Reverend Barber and NC NAACP. Not even lunch.

The food fight is on! Reverend Barber claims he wasn’t really firmly invited. Barber insisted that if his entourage can’t come, then forget it. Apparently he’s afraid to go eat alone?

“I said it might be possible if I could bring other clergy leaders from the Forward Together Movement with me,” Barber said in a statement. Continue reading →

OH NOES! Defacto Leader of the NC Dems Missed A Meal!

Posted on May 16, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

I almost hurt my eyes due to rolling them so hard (email in the second half of the article). Reverend Barber missed a meal apparently and it’s all McCrory’s fault.. or something. Barber claims he wants to engage in discussion? Let’s look at what that really means.

#NCGA Proposes Building Rules Changes

Posted on May 15, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

The NC General Assembly is proposing some rule changes to for the legislative building and legislative office building areas. This is most likely in response to Moral Monday and the description by Judge Nancy Hamilton that the NCGA’s building’s ‘vague’ rules.

Obviously a response to the #MoralMonday protests, GOP #NCGA proposes new rules on how to behave at Capitol. http://t.co/cFzAOfZ9Xb #NCpol
