Phoebe violates it’s own charter [ March 13, 2010 – 7:56 am] by Tom Posted in » Albany Dougherty County

The Albany Herald reports this morning of Margurete Burns, an 81 year old Albany woman, who suffered a head injury back in February. After being initially treated in Douglasville, Burns returned home. The next day, she got a phone call telling her to get medical treatment immediately. So, she went to Palmyra. The ER doctor apparently felt she needed a neurosurgeon, so he contacted Phoebe. They allegedly refused to take her, so she was airlifted to Macon.

Now, let’s ignore the fact that there are laws stating that hospitals can’t refuse to treat people, and go right to Phoebe’s own charter. Read More …

Enough Stimulation Already![ June 10, 2009 – 3:00 pm]by Tom Posted in » National

Ah, the mighty stimulus package. The savior of humanity. The last great hope for America. Blah, blah, blah. Despite what Congress has been trying to tell the American people to think, and what the mainstream media has been telling them as well, a recent Rasmussen poll shows that American’s just ain’t buying it.

Transparency In Local Government[ June 10, 2009 – 12:15 pm]by Tom Posted in » Albany Dougherty County

Mucking about on the City of Albany and Dougherty County web pages, I was struck by something a little odd. We live in a world where transparency is considered by many to be vital. We want to know who is doing what with our tax dollars and we want to know why. Both the City and the County are pretty good about that, though the County’s commission minutes are almost a month behind, the last dating from early May. But what struck me as odd is how there is so little about what is coming up. Read More …

Citizen of the World[ June 10, 2009 – 9:50 am]by Bill Waller Posted in » Editorial, National

Yesterday I was helping my son with his Citizenship in the World merit badge. We were reviewing all of the atrocities that are coming from North Korea. Monday night I caught a portion of Newt Gingrich’s speech where he declared that he is NOT a citizen of the world, but strictly a citizen of the United States of America. I have not always agreed with Speaker Gingrich, like when he declared that the era of Reagan Conservatism was over, but I did like his citizenship comment.

So Much For Law And Order[ June 10, 2009 – 8:00 am]by Tom Posted in » National

Once upon a time in this nation, you could trust a few things above all others. Millions of guys will watch football, millions of women will go shopping, and Paris Hilton would think the Nobel Prize came in a box of Nobel cereal. One of those things you could count on was that the judicial branch of government would uphold the rule of law. Well, at least I believed that. Ah, to be that naive again. Read More …
