People of Fayette County, please try to acknowledge beyond a simple news article the truly great accomplishments at Whitewater Middle School. For the years that I have been teaching here in Fayette, I have overheard too many people from other schools say that Whitewater sports were good because they have the "country kids". Seriously?!? If so, then maybe PTC should re-evaluate what direction their kids are heading. Beyond the numerous articles on the success of the middle school sports teams- fairly consistently- NOW the school has been honored with a 2009 Georgia Schools of Excellence. Actually from the top 10 OVERALL scores based on academic achievement, Whitewater Middle was the #3 ranked school in the entire state and #1 middle school. Not too shabby.... Just a little FYI, the 2009 Spring CRCT scores for Whitewater were 100% passing Reading Assessment and 96% passing the Math Assessment (TOPS in this county)...

Go directly to Jail Do not pass Go Pay tax of $2000.00

Under the House bill those who can afford to buy insurance and don’t’ pay a fine. If the refuse to pay that fine there’s a threat – as with a lot of tax fines – of jail time

Has anyone heard about this in the MSM?

Recanvassing shows NY-23 race tightens even as Rep. Bill Owens is sworn into House seat a story by the Post Standard Syracuse New York..

Georgia never has enough money to support her people who lose their job.

These people now on unemployment were working just before they filed since one can not draw unemployment nor be counted as unemployed unless you file for unemployment when you are laid off.

Thank you to Fayette County Public Library for closing today in HONOR of our veterans, war-time and peace-time! To the man in the blue BMW that was disgusted to find a closed sign on the door when he walked up to the building - YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED!!!

Taliban message promises Fort Hood massacre repeat
Afghanistan News.Net
Wednesday 11th November, 2009 (ANI)

Fort Hood (Texas, US), Nov.11 : The Taliban has claimed there would be more attacks like the Fort Hood shootings unless Washington ends its policies in Afghanistan and Iraq, according to a report.

. . in Macon, Georgia!

Representatives Linder and Price said no to continuing unemployment payments to those in Georgia who are eligible for them (they had a job once).

United's turn came up yesterday when they came aboard and took him away.

I was totally amazed that fellow employees turned him in. The most they would have done in the distant past was ask him to voluntarily abandon the flight.

Check your e-mails please regarding Love.

Well..I don't have your e-mail Tug. But I'm certain Jane is going to pass the info on to ya!

Rep. John Dingell Jr.

“It's way different than Dad's bill. Dad's bill was a single-payer, and frankly I'm a single-payer. I've seen what the Canadians do, the French do, the British, the Germans and the Japanese, and it works. I've always felt: Get what it is that works.”

I wish it wasn't so, but this is what is really going on and the way it will work out and why.

FRESH MEAT...

for the private health insurance industry to get its hands on. There are about 40 or 50 MILLION people without heathcare.

54% Favor Middle-Class Tax Cuts Over New Spending on Health Care
Thirty-three percent (33%) of voters say new spending for health care reform is more important. But 54% rate middle class tax cuts as the priority over more health care spending. Thirteen percent (13%) aren’t sure.

"Today, Ranking Member of the House Ways and Means Committee Dave Camp (R-MI) released a letter from the non-partisan Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) confirming that the failure to comply with the individual mandate to buy health insurance contained in the Pelosi health care bill (H.R. 3962, as amended) could land people in jail. The JCT letter makes clear that Americans who do not maintain “acceptable health insurance coverage” and who choose not to pay the bill’s new individual mandate tax (generally 2.5% of income), are subject to numerous civil and criminal penalties, including criminal fines of up to $250,000 and imprisonment of up to five years."

When did we as a society decide that compassion and benevolence are only possible through government mandates? Maybe it comes down to the Philosophy 101 question "are people inherently good or evil?". I and many conservatives tend to be optimists, but Pelosi knows you are inherently evil. One thing I can guarantee to you is that government is inherently wasteful.

US Rep. Nathan Deal is joining other Congressmen in writing a letter to Obama asking that he produce his birth certificate.

JOBS KILLED
TAXES INCREASE
NATIONAL DEBT RISES
FEWER DOCTORS
HIGHER COST OF HEALTH CARE INSURANCE FOR MOST
ILLEGALS GET COVERED (just wait for that)

On altogether too often a frequency, Fayette County politicians (and elsewhere) speak of passionate commitment only to betray us with arrogant ignorance and, more importantly, refusing to do the people's will. Some are thinly veiled profiteers (Bob Sprayberry) and others are mental lightweights (Carol "Big Box" Fritz).

Don't feel so alone about your failing
You were duped by excitement and greed
Soon you will find others are flailing
Obama will soon write for you a new creed.

There is some plant that grows along Robinson Rd (between the Parkway and Redwine) that has the most wonderful fragrance.

Major Nidal Hasan Muslim listed his Nationality as a Palestinian at his Mosque in Baltimore.

Began identifying with the Terrorist.. Stating he was Pro Hamas..

and symbolized the collapse of a system of government and a philosophy that simply could not sustain itself. Those brave people that protested and died in order to rid their lands of government imposed parasitic ideas of wealth distribution and alike are truly heroes. They understood that living under a such government forced a way of life that suppressed the natural abilities of man to move forward to create better conditions. They also knew that government is not the solution for all problems. They further knew that there would be a cycle of good times as well as lean and yet in spite this; they still yearned for a form of government that would free them.

Remember when we were told that we HAD just HAD to pass the Stimilus package or America was going to Crash.. Unemployment was going to go over 8%.

What has happened to Hawk 1?

Is Hawk 2 still in the shed?

How many certified pilots does the sheriff have for them?

Malik Nadal Hassan the killer At Fort Hood. Could the name give the rest of the story. Are they now in our military. M

It's been an interesting day with the Tea Party demonstrators at the capital regarding their opposition to the proposed health care reform bill - and the AMA and ARRP announcing their support of the proposed bill. Also, the charge that the 'Republican' support does not want the elimination of 'pre-conditions'. (Insurance companies ability to deny health coverage due to pre-conditions). It makes one want to try to read certain sections for clarity.

Just a little refresher in case you've forgotten what this blowhard said as a candidate ! Check it out before it's pulled.

Just a copy & paste from a right leaning blog that I thought might be worthy of a comment or two from folks who really think those in government have your interests at heart.
