    Seriously, what does Jackie Robinson have to do with Tim Moffitt’s re-election campaign? I think it’s of questionable taste to feature him at the beginning of a GOP campaign ad. Robinson fought for the voting rights of African-Americans, which the current NC legislature is now doing damage to.

    I’m gonna go out on a limb here.

    -All taxes are not bad.
    -All poor people are not welfare leeches.
    -Karl Marx (socialism) can out-debate Adam Smith (corrupted free market capitalism) on a bad day. Picture the last Superbowl for context.
    -GOP controlled Raleigh makes really bad decisions about the education of your rug rats.
    -I as well as many informed voters want the old NC back, the one that did not kow-tow to corporatist neo-feudalism Tea Party beliefs. Back when the middle class could eat twice a day.
    -Big gub’ment staying out of our lives includes vaginas, pot, the 4th Amendment, marriage and no religious test for holding office.

    Liberal like the hippie commie freeloader Jesus and the application of Piedmont based vinegar sauce on GOP pork. It does improves the flavor. Raleigh please take note.

    Does Tim even know the Wright brothers weren’t North Carolinians? Really, Jackie Robinson in an add for someone suppressing the African American vote. This thing has an unnerving similarity to a Nazi propaganda film.
