The Mump Vs. The Lump In NC-11

Promoted by Betsy......it would be dangerous to women everywhere to have this man in office.

Dr. Carl Mumpower, Asheville City Councilman and Army of One, declared himself a candidate for the Republican nomination for NC's 11th Congressional District. He's alone in the race right now, but it's likely that he'll have a corrupt, lumpy opponent in disgraced former Congressman Charles H. Taylor.

AC-T: "In a news release, Mumpower said he is committed to what he defines as “essential issues” as the foundation of his “principles over politics” approach to public service.

Some of those issues include, "securing our borders, resisting a ballooning national debt, challenging Washington's indulgence of special interests, reducing bureaucratic strangulation of our education, business and health care systems, redirecting our energies in the fight against the harms of hard drugs and focusing on enforcement of existing laws over the creation of new ones," the news release states.

Mumpower said his mission is "to establish an independent and authentic conservative voice as our representative in Washington."

“I want the people of WNC to know my name, that I am running for Congress, and where I stand on the issues," Mumpower said in the news release. "They will take it from there."

Carl Mumpower has made a name for himself by declaring a War on Hippies, stealing a crack rock from a dealer in the Asheville ghetto, urging citizens to take photographs of homeless people in order to have them properly harassed, decrying all things immigrant, and popularizing a form of psychological warfare known as "low-talking".

Like his supporters on the AC-T comment threads, Dr. Mumpower calls progressives socialists. He speaks of "Open Air Drug Markets" being one of the greatest threats to our society. Mumpower has stood on a pedestal of legal immigration advocacy, despite the fact that city neighborhood forums listed the issue among the least of Asheville residents' concerns.

Should Chainsaw Charlie choose to enter the race, he'll be facing an opponent with whom he agrees on most everything. The stark difference will be that Charles Taylor is a corrupt, greedy, lying disgrace, while Dr. Mumpower is simply a principled ultra-conservative out-of-step with all but a select group of rabid Republicans in the district.

I'll take the principled, honest fringe candidate over the unprincipled multimillionaire con artist any day of the week. Welcome to the race Dr. Mumpower. We're happy to talk about issues, but you can expect a healthy dose of Hooliganism as well.
