Ben McCoy replied to Rick Wilson's discussion A different Perspective"Wow Rick - those videos are heart-wrenching - how can a company care so little about their community and their neighbors no matter where they are located - I agree with you that I don't want them anywhere near our community. Thanks for this"
Ben McCoy replied to Rick Wilson's discussion Apples, Oranges, and Titan"Good post. The local media here is closely tight with the political establishment, and regularly appoints itself propaganda mouthpiece for their wishes. WID is usually at the center of it - with Titan being a prime example."
Ben McCoy replied to Maxx Kazoo's discussion Someone please answer.. Ben? A politician? Anybody?"Alot of it is the type of scum that politics attracts; some of it is that politics corrupts otherwise good people; and the rest is that most people who vote are f***ing stupid. "

Whats really laughable is that what I wrote is pretty accurate as screwed up as it sounds. The Prince and Princess of Wilmington.. we are just SO lucky to have these clowns I'm beside myself"
Ben McCoy replied to Rick Wilson's discussion Sour Grapes"Well said - I would agree with you. People didn't so much vote against incorporation as they did vote against Radewicz's one-man band trying to manhandle the situation for his own little experiment. I think the good citizens of…"

The Proper Role of Government
NC Law and the NC Citizen
Restoring Conservative Values

NCCCC - Steve Moore Enlightens Us
What a weekend! It's hard to believe that so much conservative thought was passed along and discussed in only two days. There is simply too much good information and ideas than I can simply recount, but several items really stood out.
Steve Moore, the well known contributor to both Fox News and The Wall Street Journal took the podium late Friday night to share his thoughts and feedback on the importance of acting out a conservative agenda. Several key facts really stood out to me,… Continue

NCCCC - Issues & Criticism
It's been an eventful day here at the NCCCC. Conservatives from all over the state and elsewhere are packing in to the work sessions dealing with specific issues important to them. From the future of education to the citizen's role in politics and government; each work session features a round table discussion panel which solicits questions, concerns, comments, and feedback from attendees.
From my perspective, there still seems to be somewhat of a disconnect between the different… Continue

- Hi Satyricon, I posted today on Star News forum, replying to a great letter to the editor titled, Obama Factor. Thank you for the nice responses. It seems quite a few libs post also, which is fine with me. More challenging!
I saw your ning site and came in to take a look. Nice job! I belong to another ning site called PatriotsHeart. Also very informative.
Hopefully we can all band together and discuss solutions to the problems we are facing in our beloved country. I am so happy that I found more like minded, thinking people here in Wilmington. The Big Talker 106.3 has some get togethers during the week, I would like to look into. I would also like to hear more about the Tea Party to be held here in town. Also there is going to be a conservative convention of some sort, I believe the end of May here in town. You can find more info on this on Big Talker home page. Nice to find you, LD
