Countdown begins to
GOP Men's Club's
2021 golf fundraiser
|
To help our Republican candidates stay on course in 2021 and '22, the Moore County Republican Men's Club is hosting its 25th annual golf fundraiser on an unrivaled course, the Dogwood at The Country Club of North Carolina, on August 30. This week, the Dogwood is one of two CCNC courses hosting the 73rd U.S. Junior Amateur (see photo at nearby of Pinehurst's Jackson Van Paris teeing off on July 19). The championship is open to the public. Tickets are not required.
Your participation on August 30 also gives you an opportunity to join the club in honoring local first responders -- 32 guests from the ranks of law enforcement, fire and rescue and EMS playing as eight foursomes. These guys always bring their "A" games, on and off the fairways.

A budget bill tradeoff that Republicans must explain
A budget passed by the North Carolina Senate in late June has many moving parts and enough compromise in its pages to have swayed four Democrats to vote for it in a Republican controlled chamber. That makes the budget veto-proof.
Those Democrats even swallowed a personal income tax rate cut from 5.25% to 3.99% by 2026.
Reports North State Journal, "The NC House will now take up its own plan, which will look different from the Senate’s proposal. Once the House reaches its agreement, expected to take six-to-eight weeks, the two sides will come together on a final budget to send to (Democrat) Gov. Roy Cooper."
The question whistling down the corridors of the Capitol is whether House Republicans will go along with a revolting deal Senate Republicans agreed to involving a district judge's race in 2022 that impacts Hoke and Moore counties.
A rider buried in the Republican Senate's budget allows for a bizarre provision. It says that candidates for the District 19-D bench will be limited to residents of Hoke County, a first. This would disqualify a declared candidate from Moore County, Beth Tanner, from seeking the office, along with any others from Moore.
At the same time it protects incumbent district judge in 19-D, Democrat Regina Joe.
Now we wait a House budget in August. It will eventually be conjoined with the Senate's until a final version is readied for Cooper. Moore Republicans must inform our Representative, Jamie Boles, that the "Joe clause" needs to go.

Charters of Freedom
project moving forward
|
The Left in Moore County continues to oppose a project that would erect a Charters of Freedom monument in our community. Their dissent exposes a deep rooted contempt for the Declaration of Independence and the U.S Constitution.
However, Moore County's Commissioners are on board and have approved, in principal, a plan to participate with an organization that is building Charters monuments across the nation. To date, 34 charters shrines have been dedicated, 13 are under construction and 57 are scheduled (including Moore).
In a July 15 meeting via video with Charters of Freedom's Michael Unruh, we learned that Moore can build its monument using donated materials and would incur no further costs. It is only a matter of time before the materials are donated and the Commissioners approve the project. The Leftists will be on the sidelines wringing their wrists.

Confronting the American
Dissent into Madness
By Victor David Hanson
In the last six months, we have seen absurdities never quite witnessed in modern America. Madness, not politics, defines it. There are three characteristics of all these upheavals. One, the events are unsustainable. They will either cease or they will destroy the nation, at least as we know it. Two, the law has largely been rendered meaningless. Three, left-wing political agendas justify any means necessary to achieve them.

Why we should embrace
the Warrenton Declaration
The Warrenton Declaration on Medical Mandates, Biblical Ethics, & Authority was created in order to provide doctrinal clarity and coherence on issues of biblical authority and ethics related to medical mandates (relevant in the era of the Wuhan virus). The declaration seeks to equip local churches and their officers in providing transparency on where they stand and to assist individuals who are being mistreated in their churches with a well-ordered summary of belief in this regard. Read the declaration.

“If critical race theory is concerned with the historical pathologies that give rise to present inequities, it fails spectacularly when it doesn't name among those pathologies the Democrats' near monopoly on black voters."
Holman W. Jenkins, Jr., a Wall Street Journal op-ed columnist, writing in the July 17-18 editions.
"Some will say (the crowd assembled at the U.S. Capitol on) Jan. 6 (was) uniquely bad. It was really bad and condemnable. But also, Jan. 6 probably never would have happened had the media and Democrats together not spent so many years defending violent protestors disrupting democratic institutions and burning down businesses when the protestors were progressive."
Erick Erickson, writing for the North State Journal, July 14, 2021, analyzing the decline of democracy under the Biden administration.
"It is my wish to be uncommon -- if I can. I seek opportunity -- not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me. I want to take the calculated risk to dream ..."
As a reminder of the mindset of a mid-20th century liberal Democrat, Dean Alfange expresses his reason for living. He was a dying breed.
