LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Mayor:
Tennant's letter is 'patently absurd'
I do not think it
appropriate for elected officials to write letters to the editor about
those with whom they serve. However, last week Councilman Dan Tennant
wrote such a letter about me which demands a response in the same venue.

denigrated, grossly insulted or loudly accused of some impropriety every
member of council except our new member, Steve Rapson.

of land for 36 years, and he is told to move for another medical office
building on Ga. Highway 54!

girls have real problems
Ms. Greer should
take time to count her blessings instead of complaining about what her
daughter can wear to school. She should say a prayer of thanksgiving
that her daughter is able to go to school in Fayette County and have
the opportunity to choose from a closet full of clothes. While Ms. Greer
rants and raves about the oppressive dress code her daughter must endure,
a young child must endure another sleepless night battling the oppressive
hunger she suffers day after day.
