Angry mob stones man thought to be sex attacker

@solidroque: It happened in Pueblo, not Denver, but stereotyping is a difficult habit to break, so carry on.

Atheists to put books next to Bibles in Ga. parks

A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side.

Georgia Dems' Senate campaigns marked by internal battles

The most perfect political community is one in which the middle class is in control, and outnumbers both of the other classes.

Handel jumps into crowded US Senate race in Ga.

The primary campaign was particularly heated, and Handel's past membership in the gay rights group Log Cabin Republicans became an issue.When Deal used her membership against her, Handel denied that she had ever been a member of the group, which was an important and influential constituency when she was a commissioner. An investigation by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution confirmed that she was on the Log Cabin Republican's membership rolls in 2003 and 2004, and that she had signed a questionnaire affirming her support for domestic partnership benefits. Politifact rated her denial a "Pants on Fire" lie. When asked by Atlanta NBC affiliate WXIA-TV about her stance on gay rights, she said that she was against marriage and adoption for gays, and that gay people are not legitimate parents.
Regardless of how anyone feels about Karen, she doesn't have a handel on the truth.

Ga. officials educating boaters on new alcohol law

Are Georgia boaters so illiterate they can't read and understand the law and the Deal has to read it to them as if they were 2 years old children.

Texas launches criminal probe into plant explosion

The plant blew up on the night of April 17, three weeks later Texas Law Enforcement decides to open an investigation. This is more evidence of what I have been reading about Rick Perry's cronies is Texas for nine years or more. His intransigence is starting to bites out of his denial of basic safety regulations to offer some reasonable efforts to insure the safety of the workers in his booming economy.

Pitts: Secession may already have occurred

@fixit: Okay, pack your bags and go see for yourself, but if you have spent your life so far in Georgia you might consider taking a pile of money and warm clothing. There are places in Alaska where gasoline will cost you $4.73 a gallon.

Pitts: Secession may already have occurred

@Used2baFreeCountry: High school dropout Bristol Palin admitted that she got drunk on a camping trip and became pregnant as a result. She admitted that it was a stupid mistake. Of course the name calling is uncalled for, but that does not relieve her of her irresponsible behavior. You are free to defend Sarah Palin all you wish, but she served only half her term as governor of Alaska and John McCain admits it was a big mistake to select her as his running mate. Try as you may, you cannot rewrite history, but I have absolutely no doubt that you will work diligently to do so.

Pitts: Secession may already have occurred

@fixit: Alaska is the second largest state that receives more federal dollars than it pays to the federal government. Number one is Washington D.C. and number three is Virginia. Georgia receives only about one cents more for every dollar it pays to the feds. Without Federal dollars Alaska would still be largely undeveloped and the human population would be much smaller. In my opinion, I think it was a better place before it was so heavily developed.

This is still a free country and if you think it isn't there are several countries on this planet you should visit. I promise you, when you return, if you do return, will realize it more than you ever have in your life.

Pitts: Secession may already have occurred

Sarah Palin is criticized in her own state and by the republican party as well. She certainly invites criticism with her simple minded incoherent speeches. This is just one of her incomprehensible classics referring to Paul Revere, "He who warned, uh, the British that they weren’t going to be taking away our arms uh by ringing those bells and making sure as he’s riding his horse through town to send those warning shots and bells that we were going to be secure and we were going to be free and we were going to be armed." Archie Bunker would refer to Sarah as a Dingbat.

Hitler's food taster tells of poisoning fears

The history of methamphetamine has its roots in war. Many of the Wehrmacht's soldiers were high on Pervitin when they went into battle, especially against Poland and France -- in a Blitzkrieg fueled by speed. The German military was supplied with millions of methamphetamine tablets during the first half of 1940. The drugs were part of a plan to help pilots, sailors and infantry troops become capable of superhuman performance. The military leadership liberally dispensed such stimulants, but also alcohol and opiates, as long as it believed drugging and intoxicating troops could help it achieve victory over the Allies. But the Nazis were less than diligent in monitoring side-effects like drug addiction and a decline in moral standards. During World War II, amphetamines were widely used to keep the fighting men going (during the Viet Nam war, American soldiers used more amphetamines than the rest of the world did during WWII).

    Draft language of so-called curfew ordinance

    Full text of the Use of Public Right-of-Ways ordinance draft is below. Highlight: Would set hours of operation of each Athens-Clarke County "building campus" -- e.g. City Hall, the courthouse and Dougherty Street government building -- at 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily. Park hours would either be set by the Athens-Clarke County manager or the Mayor and Commission. The ordinance has been derided by members of Occupy Athens and others as seeking to enforce a curfew on public property, thus damaging their First Amendment right to peacably assemble for long-term protests. read more
