Gene Messick

Gene Messick has found a way to reach a national audience with his rants against the NC Democratic Party. OpEdNews, a national news blog - is unwittingly serving as a platform for Gene. Thanks to OEN, Gene can now do what even his email cloaking and repetitive spamming efforts could not - reach thousands if not hundreds of thousands of readers.

The Rise of Anti-democratic Democrats

When I read some of the content from the e-mails of Gene Messick, it reminds me strangely of Rush Limbaugh in the way that he distorts the truth in order to make his sheep follow him like a messiah, and I respect the amount of effort that he expends just to ruin the efforts of Democrats everywhere in NC, but there clearly has to be a line drawn when he criticizes not only the Democratic party, but our own nation.
What I'm talking about is how he criticizes how we elect officials that support our best interests so that they may vote for the best leaders, which he clearly states right here in one of his e-mails/propaganda:

"Officers are elected. Delegates to the County Convention are elected. And ONLY elected Delegates may vote for the next County Chair at April County Conventions, tho many Dems do not understand this."

What is this guy's problem?

I've joined the ranks of other good dems and am being slandered by him. One of his mails was forwarded to me. He took something our chair wrote about the convention that has been posted on our website, twisted it up, and acted like I was an idiot for inviting any democrats who wanted to come to our convention...whew.

He made a case out of my going by my middle name, which is weird. When a friend tried to correct him but got my first name wrong (understandable, as I don't really use it), Gene jumped all over him for not "fact checking", and then spewed more garbage-completely ignoring that my friend was referring to September being my name and not a "moniker".

LOL, and Mr. Messick STILL has my last name wrong! He actually wrote that according to ME, my name is McGrady.
Um, NO, it's McCrady. I'm pretty freakin' sure....being it's MINE.
