Letters to
the Editor
Thanks for the coverage on
candidate Keyes
I wish to congratulate you for
your article in Friday's Citizen about Alan Keyes.
What you did was courageous, considering the virtual
news blackout, which has descended upon the Keyes
candidacy. Usually, one must rely upon alternative
sources, such as the Internet and Conservative
magazines, to get anything of substance about this
remarkable statesman.
Compliments to Tennant, but
not Mayor Lenox
I attended the March 2 Peachtree
City Council meeting. I was appalled at Mayor Bob
Lenox's arrogance, self-serving motives, unfairness
to citizen Steve Brown, and the mayor's very lengthy
presentation on annexation.
