Good news! Finally, a 'bad list' Albany wasn't

Good grief, now we're in a another desert.

Interesting quote from Gail Drake's article "We
will only have peace with Arabs when they love
their children more than they hate us".
Do our student athletes—and perhaps others-
-get any school work done when all the coaches
come a calling on recruiting trips?
Falcons doing a deja vu with Raheem Morris
returning as head coach. But at least he fills two
needs.
You can almost hear laughs of Chinese work
ers making the junk they are selling us with its
increasing prices and decreasing quality. But hey,
we did it to ourselves.
Since the Dylan Mulvaney transvestal (sic) fias

If you need any tree trimming or removal, now is
the time to jump on it. Companies need work now.

Kate, we wish you much success with your book.
Your thoughtful views will be missed by many.
Twin Oaks Elves impersonator play must have
been fun. Cute photos in the paper last week.
Representative Michelle Au and other Dems are
trying to pass HB842. It will do away with the
stand your ground law. We have a God given and
constitutional right to protect ourselves without
fear of being arrested for it! We need to let our
Georgia representatives know this and stop this
bill from being passed. Au is originally from NY.
Georgia doesn't need to become like it!
While the federal government has trillion-dollar

Communist is now the second largest farm land
owner in America.
This is America and no one will come to our res
cue if things go sideways into catastrophic chaos.
No one will be resupplying us. No one will air drop
food, medical supplies, and ammunition. There is
no place to escape to for freedom. This is it. We
will be on our own.
OK Lee County school system. What month is
White History month? Or should we just have
history month, and make it fair and equal for all
students?
A well-coordinated, well-funded, and high-pow
ered network of extreme left organizations are
behind the push to remove former President
Donald Trump from the ballot.
Regulations/Technology are three things that
comes to mind. They are destroying NFL with
free agency, College Football with the Transport
Portal (NIL) along with the screw up with the
playoffs and now the Commercial Fishermen can't
do their jobs be of all these new Biden regula
tions. No more Common Sense! And now the new
updates on these I phones suck!
As a voter, I like Nikki Haley, but the big boys in
Washington will run over her I believe. That's the
reason the Democrats are voting for her to keep
Trump off the ticket. Just my thoughts. These
two are not my favorite candidates by the way.
