Why we need a trial In 1969 I, like most Americans, was fascinated with the moon landing.  I was very young, but I have vivid memories of building plastic models of the Saturn V and especially the lunar lander.  The lander model even came with a little base that looked like the moon.  My...

Regarding the 287(g) meeting on Wednesday, October 2, 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm at the Collins Hill Public Library. I received a call today (October 2) from Gwinnett’s Solicitor General Brian Whiteside. He is concerned that those on both sides of the 287(g) issue may be perceiving a...

We believe that immigration has been a key component in building the United States into the exceptional nation that it is.  Even today we lawfully admit over 1 Million people every year – more than any other nation on earth. The debate should not be about whether we accept immigrants,...

In a decidedly un-Republican move, the Republican-controlled County Board of Commissioners is planning to raise taxes.  Because they can.  And because they didn’t get the MARTA tax increase they wanted. This is such a bad move.  It is very possible that after the next election your...

A elected official who I know to be a man of integrity and who was very involved in insurance in the state of Georgia could not find anything good to say to me about then candidate Jim Beck when he ran for Insurance Commissioner last year. Now I have an inkling as to why. I just wished I had...

I had difficulty finding one place with a listing of all of the candidates that are running for leadership positions in the Georgia Republican Party.  Delegates to the State Convention will be voting on these folks on Saturday, May 18, and I thought you might find a single source with links...

Here is the text of one of the letters lawmakers in our state received from a group of Hollywood actors.  Their assumptions in this letter indicate their utter disregard for anything that stands in the way of money and that they can not comprehend anyone who would stand on principle.  Their...

Here is what we find looking at the numbers for early voting as of Tuesday, October 30 – one week before the election.  Numbers include in person and absentee voting. Since we cannot determine party affiliation from the votes in the General Election, we go back and match those that have...

I am always skeptical when the Legislature wants us to modify the Constitution.  This should only be done in very special circumstances and with careful consideration.  Generally, the only reason we are asked to modify the Constitution is because the Legislature is trying to do something they...

Some people have asked about writing in a new name when they vote for Governor tomorrow.  Here are the facts: 1. Because this is a run-off, there is no option for a write-in candidate on the July run-off ballot😟.  If you do choose to vote in the July run-off, you must vote for the...
