MOULTRIE —
Dear editor:
The Terrorist Act enacted while Mr. George W. Bush was our president was a law that did not seem to affect my rights as a U.S. citizen.
But the DMV office in Thomasville told me today that I wold be required to prove certain things before I could qualify for a Georgia driver’s license.
The DMV office said your veterans license is not a credible credential. (The Georgia State Legislature issued to veterans a drivers license for service to our country and the State of Georgia.)
I do believe a veteran’s word carries more weight than an act passed by our U.S. Congress, dealing with illegal aliens or one or more deceptive terrorists who can outwit the law on any given date.
If the ACLU really cared or my congressmen really cared about my civil rights, this Terrorist Law would never have reached committee, let alone the president’s office for his signature. Mad and upset.
Term limits will return some power to “we the people.”

Tribute to my dad
Dear editor:
Growing up in South Georgia every little girl thinks of their daddy as their prince; I am no different. And I believe his years of sacrifice, dedication and unconditional love for me is a story worth telling. - Rant and Rave for 05/21/13

Oh joy! The Turtle Man will return
Great news! The Turtle Man is coming back for another season on television!
And yes, I’m being a little facetious here. It’s a ridiculous show, but apparently it’s entertainment for some people. -
The kind of stuff that happens in dictatorships
Distrust of government secrecy has been elevated to an exceptional level with the disclosure the Justice Department covertly examined two months of Associated Press phone records to determine who leaked details to the AP about a foiled terrorist plot.

And would you like fries with that?
Most of us have seen the Chick-fil-A signs that urge us to “eat more chicken.” So would you ever expect to see one that says, “eat more crickets?”
