Judges
are warping our democratic system

How many people
are actually paying attention to where the law is going in this country?

Gay
theology is 'cancer' in the Body of Christ
Sad state of the
modern Church: How far will Christians remove themselves from the traditional
and Biblical teachings of faith?
What's
sad: Ridicule of gays in the name of a loving God
Linda Harvey, in
her article against homosexual marriage, makes a good point when she
states, "If same-sex relationships become the law of the land,
then homosexual marriage will be presented to America's schoolchildren
as the equivalent of heterosexual marriage." If that occurs, then
America will be guilty of teaching tolerance instead of intolerance
and God only knows where that may lead us.
School
buses bypassing subdivisions: Why weren't we notified?
As the mother of
a kindergartner, thus new to the Fayette County School System, I was
more than dismayed at the news that the bus system was bypassing my
neighborhood. As I search for information as to why one of my reasons
for 13 years of paying taxes in Peachtree City has been taken away without
my input, I am getting angry and upset.
Bad
bus route decisions now aggravated by official rudeness
I read your article
about school bus stop changes [The Peachtree Citizen Review, Aug. 8],
as I am one of the angry parents that phoned in to the county on Friday.
Pinching
pennies not good excuse to jeopardize kids' safety
I am a 35-year-old
native of Fayette County. My wife and I are raising three children,
two of whom attend middle school.
Solution:
Set up task force, sell Hwy. 54 land
To Peachtree City
Council: This presentation is on behalf of Direct PAC, a political action
committee in Peachtree City. As we have tried to emphasize since our
formation earlier this year, we are much more interested in "action"
than we are in "politics." As is stated on the home page of
our website: "Our organization will take positions on the issues
we care about. If we agree with what our leaders are doing, we'll say
so. If we don't agree, we'll say so, and we'll propose alternative solutions."
PTC
Council inconsistent with financial decisions
Many citizens may
not be aware of the inconsistency displayed by our current city council.
While publicly vocalizing a budget crisis requiring either employee
layoffs or significant tax increases they continue to make decisions
as a council that are blatant wastes of money. Some members are talking
about cutting jobs to correct the budget problem, while others take
a more liberal approach and recommend raising our taxes. They blame
a drastic decline in revenues from many sources, but fail to mention
their gross display of superfluous spending as a cause of the problem.
Cart
drivers just like any other: Get a license first
I have worked in
Peachtree City for over 10 years and lived in Peachtree City for the
past three years. I have always wondered how you could drive a golf
cart on the streets without a driver's license.
Laggard
letters open eyes: How about left turners?
Not only have you
opened a can of worms with this "laggard" issue, but more
importantly, you've opened quite a few eyes! Maybe you should start
a page dedicated to "rules of the road." One writer from last
week, Mr. Trapaga, could be the editor. He quoted many valid points
from the Georgia State Driver's Manual, which obviously many people
did not even know existed, much less have read.
Where's
that traffic light that's needed at Hood Ave./Hwy. 85?
It is my understanding
that several years ago a signal light was approved for the Hood Avenue-Ga.
Highway 85 intersection by the state of Georgia. The light is needed
to allow those traveling east on Hood Avenue to get onto Hwy. 85 safely.
State
law specifically states, Move to the right to let faster drivers pass
I have watched with
interest and amusement as several of the more vocal in the community
have justified their reasons for traveling in the left lane. From militant
enforcers of the speed limit, to "my right to drive" have
all been thrown about. I have also been entertained by your labels of
each other. It borders on childish, that such behavior is tolerated
on highways by adults.
Left-lane
laggard drives with flashers
A driver poking
along in the left lane of a four lane highway is bad enough. But to
add insult to injury why do some of those pokers have their emergency
flashers on when driving down the highway?
