"POT FOUND: On June 5, Investigator Doug Martin spoke to Investigator Scott Pulliam who received a tip about marijuana plants growing behind a home on James Lane in Danielsville. A Georgia State Patrol helicopter flew over the area and spotted the plants. Pulliam went to the home and confiscated the plants which were growing in a pot inside the woodline."

Wonder how much money was wasted on gas for the helicopter ride and police presence...All for a naturally growing plant. What a joke these guys are...

They know what it means and says, it's just that they don't give a damn.

You do realize that the Democrats do not have a majority in the house of reps., do you not?

Perhaps a President Romney would have been more to your liking:

“There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what … who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims. … These are people who pay no income tax. … and so my job is not to worry about those people. I’ll never convince them that they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.” — Mitt Romney, remarks at private fundraiser, Boca Raton, Florida, May 17

This statement coming from someone who lives in the redneck boondocks of a Neanderthal state is quite ridiculous.

I would much prefer to live in "the redneck boondocks of a Neanderthal state" than a crime and poverty ridden cesspool of a state known as New Jersey. Might I add that you can add New York and Illinois into the latter description as well.

From what I've heard and read, the touristy part of Jersey received the most attention

I've never knew that NJ had a touristy part. I've always considered NJ the armpit, in that it stinks, of the U.S.

A deputy was dispatched to Comer Elementary concerning an elementary school student displaying "inappropriate" material on his cell phone?? I'm surprised the "special response team" was not dispatched.

You want REPRESENTATION? Well, boys, you are going to be subject to some TAXATION!

GOOD JOB, IRS! Oh, and keep up the good work! Tax the HELL out of

When in "reality" it should be the "low level" constituents like yourself that should be taxed "the HELL out of ". However for some obvious reason, you probably don't pay taxes due to your apathetic lifestyle.

I would agree if you changed the word "intellectually" to "culturally". A liberal arts degree and respect for the fine arts does not infer that intellectualism is rampant here.

Don't give up hope, maybe the residents of Athens-Clarke will progress one day into a reliable self-providing and self-sufficient populace.

[quote][b]Millionexus[/b] -

Athens voted heavily for President Obama in 2012 as well as nearly every single Democrat on the ballot, with very few exceptions.

Of course it's still a democratic stronghold. Anytime one sees a high crime and poverty rate and failing grade school educational measures compared to the resident state, you are sure the Democrats have tight control.

Off course they did. Afterall, it was an election year, right? I have always heard to get your lie straight before you say it.

@melquiades: Well said. The GOP has jumped on this Benghazi thing in an attempt to discredit Hillary and damage her presidential election prospects.

Their attempt to discredit Bill Clinton (Monica scandal) resulted in Gore receiving the popular vote.

[/quote]

The administration didn't "jump" on the requests for support from the embassy to keep it from being labeled a terrorist act, instead of a "protest", before the 2012 election.

Their attempt to discredit Clinton via Monica resulted in Bush receiving the Electoral vote. Just putting it in perspective for ya.

Why would the POTUS bring a detail like this (fear of tyranny) up during a college commencement speech??? Feeling guilty of something?
