Remembering
our troops, helping airlines
By MAC
COLLINS
Congressman
Remembering
our troops The United States armed forces are engaged in a campaign
to disarm the regime of Saddam Hussein and liberate the people of
Iraq. On Thursday, the House of Representatives passed House Resolution
153, recognizing the public need for prayer for the people of the
United States and our armed forces during the war in Iraq and under
the threat of terrorism at home.
LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR
F'ville
Council 30% pay hike 'unconscionable'
I find it unconscionable
that the Fayetteville mayor and City Council would vote themselves a
raise without prior notice of the vote to the public.
Management
squeezes Delta workers but votes itself raises
In the past, it
has been my impression that your paper has occasionally portrayed Delta
pilots in a negative way, accusing them of greed and of not caring for
the company or the passengers. I now hope you have come to examine the
front office team at the airline in the same fashion.
Take
off Epps's clerical collar when putting down the French
I would like to
suggest that David Epps submit a photo of himself without the clerical
collar and drop the "Father," if he continues to write columns
like, "Forget Iraq: We should just invade France."
David
Epps's column about France: 'Expect better from a man of the cloth'
In regard to David
Epps's opinion column on March 21, it saddens me to think that he is
supposedly a respected member of the community, as rector of Christ
the King Church.
'So
tired' of antiwar protesters bashing America
Father Epps, I always
enjoy reading your columns. This one, though, (3/26/03) really pleased
me I am so tired of celebrities indiscriminately criticizing our country!
Thank you for setting out these backgrounds side by side. It truly shows
just how ignorant and uneducated these Hollywood figureheads are. I
found the education and work history of our government officials interesting,
too and reassuring in these troubled times.
Grizzard
is smiling at column
I am a regular reader
and fan of your column in the South Fulton Citizen, especially your
latest on "Just invade France."
Let's
be dogs' best friends
Delightful. Outgoing.
Good. Sacred. Isn't it true?
Library
construction costs more than private homes
In response to D.
Jones about the cost of the library expansion:
Raise
'tobacco user fee' for 1st time in 32 years
I would like to
speak on the current legislative issue regarding HB 379, increasing
the tobacco user fee. I am a daughter of a 59-year-old woman who died
from smoking related disease in 1998.
Story
about massage parlor too graphic for young readers
I appreciate the
thorough reporting of The Citizen on most issues; however, I just picked
up today's edition and after reading the front page article on the sex
parlor bust, I feel that I must voice my concern.
Can't
leave Saddam in power with his chemical weapons
My name is Clint
Ford and I am in the sixth grade at Booth Middle School.
Islam
not a religion of peace, despite media's portrayal
Despite political
assurances and media cover-up, Islam is not a "religion of peace."
Allah is a god of war more closely resembling Mars or Kali than Jesus
or Jehovah.
In
scouting, once an Eagle, always an Eagle
Semantic point on
Boy Scout story:
County
has lost great man in Spencer's passing
It was with great
sadness that I learned of the passing of Tyrone Police Chief Roger Spencer.
Pray
for children's protection
Recently my son
left on a two-day school trip. He was excited. I was concerned.
5th
grader puts herself in a hungry girl's shoes
My daughter wrote
a poem a few weeks ago in her fifth grade class. She attends Fayette
Intermediate School. Her assignment was to write a poem from a picture.
The picture she was given was one of a little girl about 6 years old
and two older men back in the 1940s along a city street. The little
girl is holding a threadbare blanket and looks like she might be homeless
along with the other two men. No other information about the picture
was given. It was all based on your own interpretation.
