HuffPost "headlie": "Holder resigning: Attorney general backed rights" -- "backed rights"? How warped.. Did he back the rights of American citizens to know their neighbors were legal? Did he back the rights of American citizens to know all who vote are who they say they are? Did he back the rights of American citizens to be treated fairly by the IRS? Did be back the rights of the families of those killed at Benghazi? Did he back the rights of law abiding citizens to know they could count on our Constitutional rights? In a word.. NO!

Online headline: "Despite slow, troubled start, Holder leaves mark at Justice Department" -- Yeah, Holder left his "mark' on justice.. 666...6 years, 6 months, 6 scandals, pray that we recover.
---
Online headline: "Rev. Al Sharpton claims he is advising White House in search for new Attorney General" --
Hmmm.. is this a trailer for a Saturday Night Live skit?
---
Online story: "Controversial civil rights activist Rev. Al Sharpton says he is helping the White House pick the next U.S. attorney general." -- Well, at least Sharpton is not referred to as a civil rights LEADER.
---
Online story: "Journalists attending the annual Clinton Global Initiative have reportedly been kept in close quarters and given not so much as the freedom to go to the bathroom alone. * New York Times reporter Amy Chozick wrote about her experience on Wednesday, describing the basement where journalists were held, tight security presence and the press aide who actually followed her to the bathroom stall." -- Take note that this is a NY Times writer (reporter/journalist is sorta a stretch) who is generally thrilled to drink the Kool-Aid..

Democrat Gubernatorial candidate Jason Carter says the best thing for the economy is to have a middle class with money in its pockets. What he didn't say is that he knows how to do that, or that he wouldn't spend his every moment digging into their pockets to take more taxes.

L-E story: "(Georgia Labor Commissioner Mark) Butler noted that Georgia has added nearly 80,000 jobs over the last 12 months, giving it an annual job growth rate of 2 percent. That’s “very strong because the national average in job growth is only 1.8 percent,” he said." -- Hmm.. Governor Deal sees new jobs.. Jason Carter sees new pockets to dig into.

WTVM9 story: "COLUMBUS, GA (WTVM) -The Chattahoochee River is set to receive some much-needed upgrades this week thanks to the National Weather Service. * Rains take a huge toll on the river and the RiverWalk. There is major flooding most times during heavy rains, and the river forecast services in Columbus want to take away that danger. * Beginning Thursday, Sept. 25, flood stage levels on the Hooch will be lowered with the help of a new hydrologic system. * In turn, this will help to keep the area around the river safer during severe weather." -- Hmmm...Will someone please explain how one goes about controlling flood waters. Water, especially upstream flood water, takes the course of least reistance,, alway has, always will.

L-E headline: "Muscogee Marshal's deputies performing speed checks on Macon Road" -- Good grief, if there aren't enough Municipal Court papers to deliver or renters to be evicted, why not close the Marshall's office? Hey, may Chief Boren can have them brought in for impersonating CPD traffic cops?

L-E headline: " Giving religion a bad name" -- Oooops.. thought it was about what Obamageddon and the Democrats were doing to Christianity.
---
If you haven't heard about it, there's a series called "Black Jesus" being aired on some cable channel (google it for some video).. with the amount of cussing Black Jesus does, it must be based on the Gospel of Jeremiah Wright.
---
LIV's L-E "soundoff": "Thirty years ago America had 60 million guns and every few days local news reported on another shooting. Today we have 300 million guns and the first 10 minutes of every broadcast is shooting incidents." -- Good grief.. guns don't pull their own triggers. The difference now and 30-40 years ago was that murderers used to get the death sentence carried out.. it sent a message to those thinking about committing such crimes, and it took any chance of recidivism off the table.
---
L-E's "Thought for Today, “A child educated only at school is an uneducated child.” — George Santayana, American philosopher (born 1863, died this date in 1952)." -- Unfortunately.. those poorly educated, socially promoted and graduated are now parents, and not qualified to help their own children at home.
---
L-E story: "LANCASTER, N.H. — The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department says a Georgia woman has been rescued from a Mount Washington trail after suffering an allergic reaction from an insect sting. * Conservation officers were assisted by officers from a local fire department, a search and rescue team, the U.S. Forest Service, the Appalachian Mountain Club and good Samaritans" -- Good grief.. is there such a shortage of real news that this item has gotten the attention of the NH Fish and game Department executive offices, mainstream media and the L-E? And look at the resources spent by various government agencies.. If they time to do this, then they have too many employees and resources.

Derek Jeter went out knocking in the game winning run.. wanna bet when Hollywood does a movie about it, an umpire will make a bad call denying Jeter of his civil rights?
---
L-E headline: "Filling your tank for less * Prices at the pump fall below $3 a gallon for much of the U.S." -- Hmmm.. everywhere but Columbus, GA.. maybe the DOJ will look into a somewhat monopoly situation in the Columbus distribution system.
