I voted on one contract, Mayor signed another

Heck, Brown has been doing that to me for years! If he didn't have me to whine and carp about, he pretty much wouldn't have a life.

Column on authority flap short on fairness, balance

I would like to thank Jeff Ellis for his letter to your newspaper. I would also like to assure him there are Christians in Fayette County who know and love gays and lesbians. Christians like myself, m who believe that homosexuals have an equal share in the redemptive work of Jesus Christ.
