For One Night Only: OBAMA LIVE![ June 24, 2009 – 12:15 pm]by Tom Posted in » National
Tonight is the night, ladies and gentlemen. For one night only (well, a day and a night, but who’s that picky), you’ll be able to get all the Obama you can handle…and then some!
Tonight, the President will be on ABC to have a “conversation” on health care and his plan for reform. What will be missing is any meaningful dialog from the other side. ABC claims that they’ll have the opposition present during the question and answer period, which may indeed be right. However, it’s the President who’ll have the final word on everything. Read More …
Jolivette Supporters Think Punishment To Harsh[ June 24, 2009 – 8:00 am]by Tom Posted in » Albany Dougherty County
PCCI told City Commissioners that Rod Jolivette’s punishment, his demotion, was to harsh and asked the Commission to step in and get involved. One person actually told WALB that she thought there should be more discussion regarding Jolivette’s punishment. Excuse me? Read More …
Oxendine LIES About His Electoral History[ June 24, 2009 – 6:30 am]by Jeff Posted in » 2010 Campaigns
John Oxendine and his supporters like to claim that he has had more votes than any Democrat in 3 of the past 4 elections.
From a campaign email on May 8 (that I’ve been hearing his supporters parrot recently):
John Oxendine has received more votes in three of the past four general elections in Georgia than any other single candidate on the ballot of either party.
My Secession from the Tea Party Movement[ June 24, 2009 – 4:53 am]by Publius Posted in » Editorial, Local
Everyone,
It’s official everyone. I’ve given it much thought and after the emails over the past few days, I have made a decision, I am leaving the Tea Party movement here in Southwest Georgia. When I first joined this movement, I saw it as an opportunity for me and others to express our opinions about the government in an open mic type format with hundreds or thousands there to listen. At the April 15th Tea Party in Leesburg, it was just that and that’s why I wanted to become more involved. So, I did. Here I am. But unfortunately, upon my joining I realized that we weren’t truly united on issues concerning the way Tea Parties should be run and the way the agenda would look. I voiced my opinion and was assured that open mic would be given 40 minutes. Well, over these past few days, new speakers have been added and will be speaking during the open mic. It might as well not be open mic if we have people speaking about specific topics during the open mic. The Tea Parties were meant to be a way for the people to voice their anger at the government, not be educated on issues of the day. We have lost sight so much that even this so called “grassroots movement” (which isn’t one anymore) is no longer effective. Now there is no turning back on this decision because my family has moved our vacation to New England back to the original plans which would make me unavailable to be at the Tea Party. It has been an honor to work with you and I truly hope that the Tea Parties return to their message and back to their directive, that is let the people speak.
With that, I bid you farewell,
Kyle Constable
