Just When You Thought I Was Finished. .

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;I come to shine the light of accountability on the elected officials of Lumberton, not to praise them.The evil that men do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones; So let's hope that's not the case when it comes to the City of Lumberton. In the words of Mark Twain, the reports of the death of the Lumberton Informer has been greatly exaggerated. I'm not done yet. When I'm ready to stop blogging it will be on my own terms; not on the terms of others. WTBS. . I'm back and get ready for some more of my insights into Lumberton's city government. There are a lot of secrets waiting to be shared and you all know how I love to share. Lumberton is a solution waiting for a problem; in other words, it's @$$ backwards. There has been quite a few things happening over the weeks, but they were just too depressing even for me to comment about. However, I'm still trying to sink my teeth into the report about a Lumberton business owner that allegedly threatened one of his customers with a dog. It was said that the person was threatening to release his dog on someone that patronized his establishment regularly. I don't have the complete details because I'm still checking with the street committee. I have other news to share, but I will save it for a later date. I just wanted to let my readers know that just because I've become disintersted in the political scene of Lumberton, I'm still here to shake up the status quo. I'm still working on an alternate site for those that can't access the newly formatted page, and I should have that link ready for you guys soon. Until then, govern yourselves accordingly.

      I know there are people that post anonymously for various reasons and I understand that, but then there are cowards, such as yourself, that love to leave anonymous posts because you want to throw rocks and hide your hand. I figured I would get a comment like this, especially on this post. I guess you could say it was BOUND to happen. Generally, I don't respond to cowardly posts because I think you and enuchs have one thing in common. . .

FY Budget 2015: Pills and Potions

-

I called this post the pills and potions edition because after looking at the budget that was presented; it's obvious this board is overdosing on something. I can't tell where any real cuts were made to the budget; it seems the same. The fact that the board paid Richard Rose $1, 600 to prepare this budget is a joke. Why do we have a city clerk if she cannot prepare a budget? What is she doing all day other than reading the Lumberton Informer or thinking of her next lie? The board claimed that Richard Rose was doing this out of the goodness of his heart, that he knew the City of Lumberton was not in a position to pay him. So, rather than charging the normal going rate for an embattled city manager that was allegedly terminated for not reporting to work and other matters; Rose decided he will charge the fiscally challenged City of Lumberton a mere $1,600 and a motorcycle. Now, keep in mind, the board never voted to hire Richard Rose but somehow, he received a check and a moto

Kim Rogers: A Phenomenal Woman

I've always said that I don't offer balance throughout this blog. It seems that most of the focus is placed on the bad things or more gossipy topics, but I think today is a good day to give credit where credit is due. I know she don't do what she do for attention or accolades but I would like to tip my hat to Mrs. Kim Rogers, founder of the KeKe B Foundation. Kim, like many other women of our community, is a testament to the power of hop, courage and resilience of a loving mother. I don't know how she does it but she has chosen to take a stand when others would have buckled under pressure. Her dedication and courage has touched so many people in so many ways. The work she's doing through the KeKe B Foundation will be a beacon for many generations to come and the she many never realize the impact her courage has made in the lives of others. But despite it all, she is still pressing forward. Kim does not want another parent to experience what she had to experience

Stealing Elections: Lumberton Style

Last night when I went to the Ben Barrett Voting Center to watch the counting of the vote, I entered the building about 10 minutes before the polls closed and the picture above is what I saw. Throughout the day, many people expressed their concerns that the poll workers didn't match the demographics of the City of Lumberton. I shrugged it off after someone texted me, assuring me that the election was going to be fair. Well, that was not the case. Later in the day, a voter came to me with evidence that the votes had been compromised. They gave me two torn affidavit ballots that were torn up and thrown in the trash in the women's restroom at the voting center. Interesting. There was another person that came to me about the conversation they overheard between Cora Rogers and her mother, Voncile Richardson. It seems that Ms. Voncile wanted to cast a vote for me but her daughter, Cora Rogers, instructed her to mark the ballot for Kent Crider. Interesting. Last
