zoes: Universal Health Care SOLUTIONI have a brilliant solution to the discussion regarding universal health care. It is so simple and so profound! Any Universal Health Care system that the government may enact will affect everyone, even Congress, Courts, President, etc. There will be none of these exceptions to the rules for politicians (think Social Security/Retirement Benefits). Davids mom: Dr. SamsThe Blended History of Fayette County. God bless Dr. Sams. What a wonderful 'healing' event!! sageadvice: Property taxes on homesI keep hearing that it is hard if not impossible to sell a home for anywhere near what it is worth. daisyheadmaisy: Last Night's Community Awareness SeminarDid anyone go? What did you think? Cyclist: Roofing Company RecommendationJody Thomas: Attention BloggersMy name is Jody Thomas and I am Capt. Pruitt’s second in command for the drug task force. While the members of the drug unit do not normally blog, curiosity often drives us to read them. Having said that, allow me to explain my current position. Due to Capt. Pruitt’s current health issues I run the day to day operations of the task force. Make no mistake, Capt. Pruitt is still the commander of the drug task force, he does however have other pressing issues at the moment. bad_ptc: "The End of America"Is Naomi Wolf heading for the fence or is she dead on? Granted the video is about 40 min. long but most of you have nothing better do do anyway. Denise Conner: February 26, 1993 (15 years ago)sageadvice: UnionsHow can a republican belong to a union? muddle: Pew Forum: Religious Landscape in AmericaThe Pew Forum recently conducted an unusually large survey to get a profile of religion in American life. Some 78% are professing Christians. Paul Perkins: 2008 Democratic National ConventionJust got my copy in the mail and wanted to share with all those with reservations. Republican schedule will be released next week. Mike King: SLIP SLIDING AWAYThe old song from the sixties, "Slip Sliding Away", keeps coming to mind when reflecting upon the decline in the quality of life that so many of us have enjoyed over the years in Peachtree City. sageadvice: When will this thing reactappropriately when clicking on "submit" so as to not double submit? sageadvice: What an Honor!Fayette is one of the newly designated drug capitals! How do they determine that? Is it the amount of dollars worth of drugs found, the number of arrests, the number of convictions, how? sageadvice: Useless Precautions!A woman died on an American Airlines flight from Haiti to New York recently. It was determined later that she had a heart attack, apparently. Shaquita: Tyrone’s New Purchasing ProceduresAt the last Town Council meeting Judy Jefferson presented a bid or bids for “Phase I” improvements at Shamrock Park for approval. The agenda item was listed as “Judy Jefferson – Shamrock Park Restoration Committee Report”. The Town management did not provide any information to the taxpayers that bids were to be presented for some type of work at Shamrock Park (removal of the basketball court?). This action without public input does bring up a few questions: dawn69: LATITUDE 33As assistant manager of Latitude 33, I'd like to thank everyone for your input on our new establishment - positive and negative. We need your comments in order to make the appropriate changes. Anyone who has ever taken a risk to try something new and difficult understands that we may need a little time to work out the kinks but I promise we will. Any criticism is taken as constructive and given consideration. thebeaver: For those that are unhappy in FayetteIf your unhappy with at-large voting in Fayette County (David's Mom), may I suggest you look to move here.... The Crime Dog: District voting: not a black/white issueDistrict voting is a Democrat/Republican issue. It's a smart/dumb issue really. Folks in Fayette, by and large, are well educated and successful. They won't vote to elect dummies! Especially those who don't know what they're talking about. wulfman: Ralph Nader For PresidentWell folks, Ralph has jumped into the race. Will he spoil the race for the Democrats like he did in 2000 or will he be insignificant like 2004? muddle: Mike Huckabee on SNLmuddle: G.K. Chesterton on Race versus NationTo my mind, G.K. Chesterton eclipses all other essayists for his elegant wrting style, dry wit (sometimes he is uproariously funny), and penetrating analysis of the issues of his day. Denise Conner: NAACP District Voting Rally, 2/28/08, 7:00 p.m.I came across a flyer calling for a District Voting Rally, and here's what's on it: "EVERY Metro Atlanta county EXCEPT FAYETTE has DISTRICT VOTING!" [Shock! Fayette "is NOT like the others!" But "they" are doing their best to bring our county down to the level of Fulton, Clayton, etc.] sageadvice: Its happening!Had a discussion the other day with an intelligent gentleman about the current war, and other recent wars, and also about why the current war should be continued, even to the point of expanding it. thebeaver: Is Atlanta going White?sageadvice: Finally, proud of America!It is going to happen, can you believe it? sageadvice: Finally, proud of America!It is going to happen, can you believe it? Richard Hobbs: Cal posts as an anonymous blogger, until now!I finally figured out who Dollar and Sageadvice are, including their other alias's. Its Cal Beverly. Since Cal is apparently quick to cull the blog from some content, which is his right, and yet he chooses to not only allow, but encourages the rather asinine comments from Dollar/Sage to "clog his blog," I can not help but believe that he believes that Dollar is helping his website in some manner, therefore my keen deductive reasoning is that Cal is Dollar/Sage. sageadvice: Anybody for a hamburger?Another 150,000,000 pounds with some made up with "mad-cows!" Denise Conner: “Obama: is America ready for this dangerous leftwinger?”From the London Times
Secondly, and more importantly, I suspect it [Michelle Obama’s “pride” comment] reveals much about what the Obama family really thinks about the kind of nation that America is. Mrs Obama is surely not alone in thinking not very much about what America has been or done in the past quarter century or more. In fact, it is a trope of the left wing of the Democratic party [sic] that America has been a pretty wretched sort of place. |
