Ballance admitted dipping into foundation money...[and] sharing $143,250 with his mother to pay for community programs.

...He meant well. The end justifies the means. Isn't that the moral code of the left?

Thanx 4 the ping, Con.

Bottom line is we have the "Voter Rights Act" to thank for this .

We have two "homeland districts" set aside for blacks in our fair state: a rural black district (sprawling with erose boundaries over highly selective portions of eastern NC, providing a comfy Congressional seat first for Eva Clayton, then Frank Ballance, and now G.K. Butterfield); and an urban black district (the infamous I-85 district stringing together the "hoods" of Charlotte, Winston-Salem, and Greensboro, for the benefit of utterly venal Congressman-for-life Mel Watt).

OK, NC Congressional Districts 1 and 12 are solidly Dem districts forever. And ya know what? That isn't all bad. Because once the "homeland districts" are established, once we give into black racism and separatism, the remaining Congressional districts are, perforce, more conservative.

So, let NC Congressional Districts 1 and 12 stew in their own funky, corrupt juices. The other eleven districts will, on balance, give our state a conservative voice in the U.S. House. Works for me.
