Vernon Robinson: Not In My House
I may have just moved to Greensboro last September, but this guy will never represent the community I live in.
“Traditional American values?”
I’m surprised he didn’t offer to bail some hay.

Wow, I didn’t know if that was real or not. Yeah, that guy is scum..
Air America made fun of ole Vern on a regular basis during the time that this commercial aired. I got so sick of it that it actually did some good for me - I stopped watching TV and got out of the TV habit.
and that, laurie, is the first step towards sanity. ;-)
Seriously though, he’s almost a parody of himself.
My wife, kids, and I just moved here last September, too. I’m still trying to figure out these gerrymandered districts.
Believe it or not, this Vernon Robinson character , of “Twilight Zone� ad fame, is real. He has entered the 13th district race for Congress in North Carolina after entering in the 12th and deciding it was too tough. No, he doesn’t live there, he lives in the 5th, but he thinks he’s our best representative.
Rest assured that Vernon Robinson does have competition, although his antics have attracted media attention and caused Charlie Sutherland and myself to fall by the wayside in news coverage.
Although I do not claim to be a liberal, some in the Republican party have accused me of not being conservative enough. Maybe its my respect for the Constitution that Robinson supporters don’t like. The more fascist elements want me to promise to amend the Constitution to eliminate every little thing that offends them. (I refuse) I guess they are just to lazy to work on finding real solutions.
What really frightens me is the fact that the winner in the 13th district race for the may be Robinson. Mr. Miller , the Democrat incumbent, has screwed up enough by failing to support private property rights, the Second Amendment right to protect yourself, and voted against legislation that would stop the overweight crowd from suing McDonalds after too many super sized fries caused them to have to buy two seats on an airplane. If I can’t stop Robinson in his tracks, we are in for dark times ahead. The party will throw everything into the contest against Miller. His days are numbered. The choice will be Hendrix or Robinson. This choice must be made now, not in November.
Robinson’s tactics, taken straight from Adolf Hitler’s campaign manual, sets one group against another, uses empty headed ones for base support, and uses the more capable ones (with brains) who want to ride on his back to power and riches. The media likes him because he has the capability to turn the Republican party into a joke. But the joke has a possibility of becoming a horror and reality.
In the interest of our Nation, we all need to do everything we can to expose Mr. Robinson’s “character” and see to it that he doesn’t get past this primary. All the information you need in on my web page:

This is not only a run for office for me, it is a war in which reason, sanity, and our very freedom are at stake. I welcome any and all questions and comments.
Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Brad Miller is a fine American and a great Congressman, and he needs your support.
Sorry, Mr. Hendrix. You may be a better man than Robinson (not a stretch, by the way) but Brad Miller is a hell of a guy and has done an exceptional job in his 3 1/2 years in Congress.
i agree, john.
come on out to the green bean on the 24th at 7pm to meet brad. the entire blogsboro community will be there (thanks to jay)
