I love it when I find one of these articles that ya'll are fired up about, wish I could find something cute to say to keep it going but I got out of the stock market just before the big one a while back! That statement about the gold crash is one I predicted a while back, Just wait till the ultra rich real rebubs decide they have fleeced ya,ll sufficiently and are ready to cash in!!! Remember the Hunt bros.

Athens thugs are expanding their territory, wonder if they are trying to sell franchises!

This is so simple I hate to say it but who is buying this stuff?

Our politicians need to get to work solving our problems, not the ones they create!

Suicide is such a long time solution for a short time problem. Its always such a waste of human potential.

Well, at least things have not reached the level they did during President Carter's administration when the rich republicans concocted every cocomania controversy imaginable to destroy his presidency. When they resort to attacking the President's family they will be getting there! Democracy is at stake when the minority cannot or will not accept the results of the election process and we are seeing this happen over and over!

What a great claim to fame!

We don't have an endless supply of oil and natural gas and the intellegent folks at least have a plan!! I for one applaud them.

@TeeWee: I am sure you would welcome an investigation into the war in Iraq to determine the real reasons for that fiasco that caused the deaths of 50,000+ of our finest young men and women since you feel so patriotic these days!

I have found that checking for facts in the political rants from the right is useless because there usually aren't any!

@snarkydude: Just my opinion but it seems to me that you may be living a bad dream, When your predictions fail, which they will, it may turn into a nightmare!

Has not gotten Georgia anything and now this. What kind of legacy will this get him? At least spend your last days working for the people who elected you! Do something constructive!

Sick to do it, Sicker to defend it. Fire the crooks as soon as possible!!!

Oil companies and politics are a great mix , just see the Bushes and see what $$ can do in this country!

@cyou299: Enough said! Not to mention neglect with 911 and the revenge war.

So much $$$ and now the politicians want it all !! The accumulation of wealth has become the driving force and democracy be damned!

Nothing boring about Athens, just when you think things are returning to normal the devil goes to work!!!

Most of the PEOPLE involved in local churches have good intentions, however those yehoos on tv begging for seed money make me want to puke!!!

A class has solved the problem with fairness in competition, Lets hope that a solution in the works for other classifications.

There are folks doing flips in their graves!!! If only they could come out for their share of justice!

Just thinking out loud, but I wonder what the family value repubs are going to do when the folks in the south realize that like Social security and Medicare, Obama care really is in their best interest. Insurance companies, drug companies and health care folks are living in fear right now, MARK MY WORD!

@mpd0.59: That's our governments job and you better be thankful when they get it done! They are your last resort when the large corporations decide to take your money! IE gas, oil, communication, insurance, health care and others. The last financial meltdown was a result of a lack of regulations on our banking industry.

The repubs are jerking our chain again and guess what, the voters in gawga will never figure out who is paying them!

An age old lesson to be learned here is fame and drugs do not mix! New money needs to come with directions!!!

Humans are sinking lower and lower on the evolutionary scale!
