Walter Jones is an embarassment to Northeastern North Carolina. And there is no strong conservative candidate on the horizon to oppose him.

You can say that again...

Here’s some info for those that don’t know him, that won’t incorporate any choice words on my part:

Yes there is. Onslow County Commissioner Joe McLaughin has already announced that he will oppose him. I wouldn’t be surprised if he beats him in the primary. Jones was right on immigration, but his stance on the Iraq war has REALLY upset many people in Eastern NC.

Walter Jones was the FIRST and for a long time the ONLY member of Congress to call for a federal investigation of the corrupt mess in Durham, NC (another Phenix City).

The other 434 were too PC to speak up.

(And Obama was—and still remains—the ONLY senator to do the same.)

The Duke lacrosse frame was the biggest test of civil rights in decades; and virtually NO ONE in Congress could be seen for dust. They all played it safe.

So whatever other faults these two may have, I will still give them one day off from hell each year, in recognition...
