Again, I play along.

Mecklenburg County is looking for applicants to serve on its — all together now — Crime Task Force. The panel is being co-chaired by former Superior Court Judge Shirley Fulton and Harry Nurkin, retired CEO of Carolinas HealthCare System.

Fulton is a registered Democrat, Nurkin is nominally unaffiliated but donated over $4000 to the campaigns of Jim Black, Mike Easley, Becky Carney, and the state Democratic Party. Wonder if the Lee Institute will supply facilitators? Big surprise there.

Go here to sign up — or just to comment.
