WISDOM

If you support our national security issues, you may love and appreciate the United States of America, our Constitution with its’ freedoms, and our American flag.

If you support and practice our fiscal issues, you may value worldly possessions.

If you support and value our social issues, you may love Judeo-Christian values.

If you support and practice all these values, that is all good; an insignia of “Wisdom” . - Oscar Y. Harward

Common-sense government in Union County, N.C. vs. a left-wing agenda

By Oscar Y. Harward

Prior to the 2010 General Election, Americans continued to say “stop the spending” in all government. President Obama and the Capitol Hill Democrats rejected the call and continued to spend.

Union County, N.C.’s majority of liberal County Commissioners' primary campaign issue was to sell our Carolina Medical Center-Union Hospital. In the May, 2010 Primary Election, the voters of Union County soundly said “NO” to selling our CMC-Union Hospital. In the November 2, 2010 General Election, the voters of Union County again soundly said “NO” on selling our CMC-Union Hospital.

On December 6, 2010, newly elected Commissioner Jerry Simpson was elected Chairman of the Board. Chairman Simpson appointed Commissioner Jonathan Thomas to the CMC-Union Community Trustee Council and made other appointments for the Boards consideration. After the appointments and open discussion, the entire Board voted on and agreed with the appointments.

Just as the Obama/Reid/Pelosi team continues in Washington, the “political stupidity” from the previous two years that the Union County voters rejected on November 2, 2010 here, too, continues. During the meeting of January 18, Union County Commissioner Kim Rogers requested to be appointed on the CMC-Union Community Trustee Council with Commissioner Jonathan Thomas. Her request was based on her one-year of experience as a U.C. Commissioner on the CMC-Union Community Trustee Council. Based on my information, during the year as a Commissioner on the CMC-Union Community Trustee Council, Commissioner Kim Rogers attended only one meeting. When encouraged to attend more meetings, she allegedly said she was not interested in attending additional CMC-Union meetings.

On another issue of the day, North Carolina is one of only four of the fifty United States that allows municipalities to “force annexation” without any redress of the property owners. Union County, with the support of some local towns, is joining other counties asking the N.C. General Assembly to change this law and restrict municipalities from “forced annexation” of landowners. Union County Commissioners voted 4 to 1 to approve the resolution in support of restoring property rights. Commissioner Tracy Kuehler voted “NO”.

As I sit, listen, and evaluate the process of our newly-elected commissioners, based on common-sense government versus the left-wing agenda of the two remaining Union County Commissioners, the electorate must distinguish a disconnect from the majority.

It is so easy to evaluate the Kim Rogers/Tracy Kuehler team may be equivalent to the Obama/Reid/Pelosi team as it appears both teams seem to have their own political agenda in opposition to the majority as substantiated in the November 2, 2010 General Election.
