No response from Robert Brown and have never had response from David Lucas, so didn't bother to email him. <BR/><BR/>Non Respondents:<BR/><BR/>D) Federal: No response from Jim Marshall.<BR/><BR/>E) School Board: Sharon Patterson, Lynn Farmer, no response, even though the issue directly affects area school children.<BR/><BR/><BR/>This group is a pretty broad consensus; if Charles Bishop, Elmo Richardson and Harold Linnenkohl ignore this they are no better than Chavez. <BR/><BR/>VicVichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01818080987390770336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14376093.post-47538955109651063062007-08-16T14:30:00.000-04:002007-08-16T14:30:00.000-04:00Clearly you do not have a teenager who texts: Best...Clearly you do not have a teenager who texts: Best Friends For Ever<BR/><BR/>Also, I hear that Lauren sent you an email about meeting with the three Ward Five reps regarding Forest Hill Road.

Easy piety consists mainly of pointing a finger at someone else' or disapproving of someone's lifestyle. Although I don't agree with cozying up to Hugo Chavez, I agree that being AGAINST cozying up to him is definitely easy piety.<BR/>More difficult piety involves actually doing something that improves the human condition whether it happens to be popular or not, and whether it happens to line your coffers with $$$ or not.<BR/>Our country is now in a situation where health care is neglected, border security is neglected (except for pompous statements about building The Great Wall), food safety is neglected, product safety is neglected, the Geneva Convention is neglected and diplomacy is a forgotten word. And not only all-of-the-above, but the stock market is low and gas prices are high. American men and women are dying in an ill-planned war that shows no progress.<BR/>And yet we still have politicians who are humming "holy, holy, holy" as they plan new ways to neglect both the poor AND the middle class.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16764566800701618387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14376093.post-35639903498968823552007-08-16T11:05:00.000-04:002007-08-16T11:05:00.000-04:00What is a BFFE?What is a BFFE?Vichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01818080987390770336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14376093.post-19068271257535745842007-08-15T23:20:00.000-04:002007-08-15T23:20:00.000-04:00Now if you can get Lauren Benedict to show public ...Now if you can get Lauren Benedict to show public support for the redesign of Forest Hill Road, we might be able to say we have some stand up folks in office rather than the usual politics for politics sake gang. After today, Lauren is just about the only local politican that hasn't commented on contacting Larry Walker at GDOT.Vichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01818080987390770336noreply@blogger.com
