Strother strikes out again
'Just because the majority of concerned voters in Stokes want change doesn't make it right.'
I wouldn't have used that many weasel words, but thanks for yet another illustration of "what Strother thinks Steve says" and how far it is from what Steve actually says.
I'll repeat: the primary election in Stokes County cannot be used as an indicator of anything with regard to the will of the people, other than the fact that 90% of them couldn't care less who sits on the board of commissioners or who is their sheriff.
I thought it interesting that they quoted Marcus Kiser, who I know pretty well. Without going into a lot of detail, Marcus would find himself in agreement with far more people on the left than he would on the right. He is an excellent example of what has become of the Republican Party: socialists who don't like the Party of Asses' tendency to pander to deviants, race-baiters, and professional victims.
But to come to the point that Strother was so ham-handedly poking at, if everyone in Stokes County came out and voted and 99% of them cast their ballots for Adolph Hitler, no that wouldn't make it right. Those who believe that there is a categorical power of morality in the outcome of democracy have utterly given over their individual selves and richly deserve the tyranny they will impose on themselves.
