James Upchurch, a former-Democrat-turned-Republican Guilford County Commissioner, proposed with inscribe “In God We Trust” on 10 important Guilford County buildings.
Now, Skip Alston– the chairman of the Board of County Commissioners– says he is opposing the move because he doesn’t like the intent. The Rhino Times provides the details. It is now expected that will kill the proposal.
We have been afflicted with Skip Alston for three decades. He is a left-wing democratic socialist who rules a socialist-dominated county. I don’t believe for a moment his explanation that he initially wanted to support this proposal.
We can do better than this.
I miss the late Steve Arnold.
I do also, Fred. There is no spirited or coordinated opposition except perhaps this fellow Upchurch.
