    What you should know about Zylotrim

    And from the dark secluded valleys

    I heard the ancient songs of sadness

    But every step I thought of you

    Every footstep only you

    And every star a grain of sand

    The leavings of a dried up ocean

    Tell me, how much longer?

    How much longer?

    - Sting, "Mad About You"

    The world is full of paper,

    Write to me.

    - Shahid Agha Ali, poem

    State GOP Vice Chairman Tim Johnson, angry: 'Ya damn skippy'

    Tim Johnson has been on the hot seat for the past several weeks. Johnson, the chairman of the Buncombe County Republican Party, ran for and won the position of vice chairman of the North Carolina Republican Party.

    During that run, Johnson's criminal past was brought to light. Johnson pleaded guilty in 1996 to a felonious assault on his first wife. Then a resident of Cleveland, Ohio, Johnson was sentenced to an 18-month suspended sentence contingent on his relocating to Toledo, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Johnson at the time was running for an Ohio legislative seat as a Democrat.

    As the video shows, Johnson has been stung by the campaign. It's taken its toll on him.

    What a potty-mouth!

    So as a convicted felon, wouldn't he be banned from voting?

    Its clear that a person did alot of editting here on this video - taken way out of text.

    Maybe, the full version of this video could be placed here to explain the outrage of a person who has had his wife attacked on the internet.

    Tim speaks up for the people who are feed up with "go along to get along crowd".

    If you like how things are going, do nothing & expect the same.

    There is also the issue of Mr. Johnsons "PhD" which seem to be illegitimate.
