I'm getting new information on the smear of former Davie town council candidate Philip Busey -- namely that another political player, or set of players, might have been involved in giving Buddy Nevins the now infamous porn story. While nothing is conclusive, and I doubt anyone will ever take responsibility for providing the info to the reporter, I've taken the liberty of removing previous posts about this matter down until my investigation is completed.
