5 MORE WEEKS OF COMMUNISM

missed this earlier:

Quote :

" Just saw this in a completely unrelated article. How is this ok, but mass gatherings at a church is not? Cooper's inconsistency is ridiculous. [quote]According to a Frequently Asked Questions document attached to the Governor’s release, “Professional entertainers, athletes, coaches, performers, support staff, and broadcast staff will not count toward the mass gathering limit. Employees and other workers at facilities where entertainment events occur also will not count toward the mass gathering limit,” the release continued."

how many churches in NC are the same size as arenas/stadiums?

there is no inconsistency at all

5/21/2020 11:34:59 PM

All I want to know is if he's more credible than VA Governor.

5/22/2020 11:06:35 AM

Northam just decriminalized marijuana possession so I hope Cooper gains some credibility points by following his lead

pretty fucking credible

I won't argue with you, but I'm curious what prompted this.

I just can’t stop comparing him to neighbor governors. His response to COVID and BLM protests has been ok, but nothing stellar IMO. Then I survey the field and ..... the bar is incredibly low.

Roy Poopcooper continues to kill business at a record rate. Thankfully we have a lietendant gov who will open things 100% when we sue Poopcooper out of office

11/28/2020 9:10:57 AM

Is Poopcooper something you are trying to get started as a thing?

I think Coopooper is much better.

See in your version you are just sorta adding Poop to his name. It makes little sense to run the two words together even at that point, because you aren't making a compound word or using parts of his name to merge the word. Maybe just go with "Governor Pooper Cooper" and play off the rhyme. But Poopcooper only works if his name was something like "Opcooper," and you are then using the "Po" on the front to then blend into this name. And it isn't. So what you've done isn't very clever.

In my version, we are adding the "poo" in the middle, and then using the final "per" already included in his name. So in my version we have the word "pooper" combined with "Cooper." It flows much better as well due to also having the rhyme factor. You are welcome to use Governor Poop Coop, Pooper Cooper, or Coopooper going forward, I don't mind and don't even need credit for either.

You are just creating an even bigger case against yourself right now. This is all being saved. When we change the governors the laws on slander are going to get stronger and you’re in trouble.

Have you seen all the garbage on 42? No one is picking it up or coming to get it on A STATE ROAD. That is the govenor’s fault. So you have to put it in your car and drive it to a dump or dumpster somewhere and it’s hard to fit in there for some people. So instead he’s sending people ticket from the police and making us pay for what he needs to do

3/14/2021 12:15:48 PM

Can't you confine your schtick to Chit Chat?

Once again I survey the field of neighboring governors in regards to the current Roe v. Wade fiasco and …. Holy shit, thank god for mediocre, white bread, conserva-Dem Roy Cooper.

5/3/2022 6:50:51 PM

Thanks, King Kooper!

My dad might even be able to convince himself to vote for Roy.

7/24/2025 1:34:00 PM

He’s too old

But hed likely easily win

7/24/2025 11:16:38 PM

If I am going to stand back and let progressives run shit for a while, I have to take the good with the bad. I'll prob vote for your presidential candidate in 2028, but I sure as fuck aint going to be super vocal about it. And I suspect in 2028 the levers of influence will sway heavily repub. So yeah good luck. Don't count on ppl like me for much help

there is absolutely nothing wrong with the announcement video from the state’s most popular politician

7/28/2025 11:14:01 AM

7/28/2025 11:35:41 AM

Boring sure beats bat-shit

7/28/2025 11:48:24 AM

100%

but boring still has to be able to win to keep the bat-shits out. boring didn't work for Cheri Beasley, Cal Cunningham, Deborah Ross, Kay Hagan, Elaine Marshall, Erskine Bowles, etc.

i think cooper has a good chance, and I think he'd make a fine senator. just wish politicians would realize that if they behave like real people and not automatons, voters might be a bit more inclined to trust them

[Edited on July 28, 2025 at 11:53 AM. Reason : with all due respect to kay hagan]

7/28/2025 11:52:34 AM

nobody you listed was a popular two-term governor in a red state

7/28/2025 12:48:37 PM

It'd be nice if it didn't take a two-term governor to give ourselves a 50/50 shot at winning a statewide election just in order to keep bat-shits out.

I'm merely suggesting acting like a human being instead of just another (with somewhat higher approval ratings but still a) boring uninspired cookie cutter campaign with its overly produced fake grassroots party talking points blah blah blah would give us a better chance than just riding the inertia of name recognition. At least Jeff Jackson actually talks to the camera instead of just posing for it.

7/28/2025 1:17:48 PM

it’s ok for politicians to be boring

I’d take an authentically boring politician over an inauthentic try-hard 100 times out of 100

[Edited on July 28, 2025 at 1:37 PM. Reason : .]

7/28/2025 1:29:47 PM

Actually, you got what I was trying to say better than I did

It's the authenticity I'm looking for. And I believe voters are looking for.

I got no problem with boring. Boring, functional government delivered by boring, functional public servants is precisely what we need. I'd take that over an attention seeking loudmouth with bad ideas any day.

I don't see Roy's ad as authentic. It's the same safe but ultimately losing consultant garbage that people see and immediately lose interest because it says nothing other than empty platitudes.

[Edited on July 28, 2025 at 1:37 PM. Reason : kendrick said it best]

7/28/2025 1:36:41 PM

that’s the same Roy Cooper who has won every statewide election he’s been on the ballot for

there isn’t anything that is inauthentic about him

7/28/2025 1:38:53 PM

this is more like it. do ads like this.

[Edited on July 28, 2025 at 5:19 PM. Reason : hey guys is problematic though. y'all means all]

7/28/2025 5:54:09 PM

i am satisfied hes boring enough to be harmless

7/29/2025 8:13:26 AM

I was disappointed that qntmfred's video embed didn't actually feature "Comical Ali" from the screen capture. That guy was a trip. Thumbs down for thumbnail clickbait!

7/29/2025 9:14:53 AM

face the nation talking about authenticity too



[Edited on July 29, 2025 at 9:25 AM. Reason : ^ tgl's "there is absolutely nothing wrong" reminded me of him pwnt]

7/29/2025 9:24:49 AM

Right, I get the reference, but you can understand my disappointment that he was not also featured in the short video clip.

I hope we didn't kill that guy.

7/29/2025 9:54:42 AM

I don't understand how Cooper is inauthentic. He is kind of boring, but that's who he authentically is. If he was yelling and hollering to fire up the base, THAT would be inauthentic.

7/29/2025 2:05:40 PM

to be clear, I didn't say that Roy is inauthentic. I said his "I'm running for Senate" ad video made him look inauthentic.

7/29/2025 2:07:44 PM

I pronounce his name "WAA Cooper" in honor of Patrick Roy.
