Priorities

“Gas $2.40 + per gallon and our federal elected officials are too busy pointing figures at each party and our state officials are too busy trying to apologize for slavery. Chambliss, take the lead do something to earn you payroll would you?

The irony

“Yes Sir, only in America can one get in trouble using gas chamber to kill animals, but yet do nothing to dull pain to child during abortion procedures, People, we had better so some serious changing in America quickly.

Your critic

“Mr. Walden, I would suggest that your routine critic have the steel to confront you because obviously his problem is much deeper than your writing. People with inferiority complexes pick an issue to gnaw on. I don’t know you personally but I observe and read you enough to respect you as a professional journalist who is very good at his trade. The bone this person is picking is about other things. Maybe he or she has been arrested or flunked English.

The two sides

“Yes there are two sides to every story. On one side the hospital had to pay big fines to the federal government and to Joyce Dickerson. On the other side, a person brought problems to our attention. You don’t just pay these fines at the snap of a finger. There are a lot of legalities involved. You can bet now that this won’t happen again.

Applause

“I want to praise what’s going on at R.B. Wright School. I saw a great chapel program directed by Mrs. Kirkley. Great job.

The costs

“The CRMC board has spent a lot of money in this recent issue that will take away from the maintenance and operation of the facility. We can be glad that this matter didn’t go to trial on any front. The public would have had to pay out much more.

You know better

“Mr. Duggan do you really think someone will take responsibility and resign in the CRMC issue. You’ve been on the board. You should know better.

No admission?

“Attorney John Carlton. You said that the hospital admits to nothing...well, it wasn’t necessary. The fines speak for themselves. It would show a lot of character if you would admit it and say it won’t happen again.

More to the story

“Following Dr. Trescott’s letter about the sponge lawsuit, I asked the Observer’s editor why the medical people did not respond to the accusations of the lawsuit in the Observer’s story. The editor informed me that the hospital’s attorney and public relations department were contacted more than once and those parties decided it was best for them not to comment . He said that was their choice.

Life is a matter of perspectives; think about it
My friend, a city boy, was yelling for help. We were fishing on a river, and he had ventured over to another spot.
“Someone help! I’m cornered!” he yelled.

We better wake up
Dear editor:
Have our GOP representatives gone to sleep or are they refusing to act for the people they are supposed to represent? The Obama administration has contracted a Spanish company called SCYTAL, to tabulate the 2012 November presidential election.

May God bless my Uncle Henry
My uncle once noted on his return from a fishing trip that he caught so many fish he couldn’t put them all in one pile.
That’s how I feel trying to keep up with all the causes and organizations that either require support groups or else they comprise support groups.

A kind humanity
Dear editor:
Humanity. One word. That word can translate into many other words. Some would say humanity is dark, greedy and bent on world domination. Others may say humanity is sweet, kind and caring. I myself witnessed a small part of a loving, caring humanity the other day.

Why it's a bad tax
Dear editor:
In regards to the Transportation TSplost Tax: The statement, “Economic development suffers if we don’t pass this tax” is not a valid statement, because Georgia has always been behind the 8 ball in regards to transportation, but yet look at the growth we have experienced; being behind in transportation didn't hinder economic growth. Georgia now ranks 11th in the country as of 2010 and this occurred mostly since 1995. The economic vitality of Georgia is alive and well considering the slump the country is in.
