Hopefully everyone in the 11th District will see fit to elect Dr. Mumpower! We need a REAL workhorse in Congress, not a Pelosi Protege.

Go away Carl. Even your best friend calls you "arrogant". Yes, get those dam glasses off your nose,if you had a ruler in your hand you would look like an old school marm. I would like to add to that "Rightously indignant" and "Snobbish". You stepped into an arena of a rock show and walked out as if you were some kind of prophet about the activites going on in there. I have seen that kind of behavior at country shows too and even hockey games.Even the second floor mens bathroom at the courthouse smells like pot.

I suppose you go along with that type of behavior?
Well, it's a good thing Mr. Mumpower has the guts to condone these kinds of behavior. There should be more people like him and maybe some of this garbage would stop. I say vote for Carl.

The principle guide of the liberals on city council are to annex all the land of buncombe, raise taxes and give it away to people who did not work for it so those liberal fools can keep getting reelected by the kooks they support with tax payers money.

He's one of the few real men in town.

If not for him, no telling what that socialist crowd would have succeeded in inflicting on us.

He is our FRIEND. More and more people are realizing that.

NO more Holly Jones in our local government. Let her go to some other area and screw it up. NO MORE HOLLY JONES. Do not elect this woman as commissioner. She has done a terrible job on the city council and will do the same as commissioner. Send her the message that she needs to return to where she came from...whether they want her back or not. NO MORE HOLLY JONES.

Everyone supporting Dr. Mumpower must vote in the Republican primary on May 6. His chief competitor will outspend him by 5 to 1 and Carl needs everyone's help to get the nomination.

Please vote for Carl Mumpower!

Yes I do condone it Maria. Im in my 50's, raised a family, My kids and I are college grads,I have a reputable career and I am counting down the years till retirement. If someone wants to go to a concert and smoke a little weed I see nothing wrong with that at all. In my middle age I realize that there are far more important things for our law enforcement to be concerned about than some pot smoking citizens who want to enjoy the show in the way they see fit. It's nobody's business but their own. In your letter you said "it's a good thing Mr. Mumpower has the guts to condone these kinds of behavior." I am certain you meant to say that he "condemns" these behaviors right?

Thank you for an excellent response to Maria. I definitely agree there are many more important things for law enforcement to be concerned about.
Dr. Mumpower will do, say, or appear anywhere/anytime to further his own agenda.

I have always felt he did not stand up for the people of the City of Asheville, but a select few that would help him in his conquest for congress.

I am quite sure Mr. Mumpower is not worried much about marijuana- but you better be if your inhaling in public.

We have a problem with serious drugs in this community and he seems to be the one of the only ones in authority who speaks out about it or makes a real effort to do something about it.

You must have smoke too much pot already if your head isn't clear enough to realize he is trying to protect the children who are exposed to the dangers of drug trafficking and addiction.

It is very apparent he CARES about the people of this area, which makes him the kind of representative we need.

Carl Mumpower is a paranoid delusional if anyone should be able to recognize this its him himself , sneaking around the civic center in disguise no less to wage his private war on free thinking people , Or covorting around the backstreets of Asheville oogling the hookers , what a sicko , He's either paranoid or perverted , take your pick !!

Go back to Raleigh Tim. You'll be more comfortable there with people who decide which laws they should adhere as you reference in your above post. Congratulations on your college degree. Glad to see that these internet deplomas are actually making their way to people's hands.

Principles, what a joke. He's a politician ain't he? Don't trust any of them. Ever looked into how many po boys get elected to Congress and then become rich boys somehow on the meager salary paid by the government? Come on, even the prez gets peanuts compared to big execs in the private sector and yet they always seem to come out richer than they went in.
