Yesterday was September 11, 2022... Where I was on 9-11-01 was just as vivid yesterday as it was 21 years ago... so's my anger! Why is Resident Biden working with Iran to give them nuclear weapons, and give them back money that ought to be used to combat them?

Online headline/story: "News 12 (Augusta) interviews gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams on campaign trail * Abrams said, “But the larger issue is one of the intersections of crime and poverty in the state of Georgia. And while we must do what we can to help support law enforcement, we must also tackle the root causes.” -- You know, if any Democrat politician sits down for an interview voluntarily with a "journalist", you can be pretty sure, the softball questions have been submitted... and cleared... prior to the interview. The first "question" of importance Abrams did not answer and Craig Allison of the News 12 did not ask a follow up question concerned Augusta (#32), Atlanta (#22), and Columbus (#20) being "most dangerous cities in AMERICA. Abrams... (like Chuckles Harris' assessment of our border crisis)..... says we need to understand the "root causes".. well.. "the root causes" are are not "crime and poverty"... Crime and poverty are the RESULTS.. the primary "root cause" is illiteracy (over 70% of prison inmates are illiterate) ... and the Democratic Party promotes illiteracy by promoting students who are not proficient as highlighted/verified by the 2022 Milestone Test scores. Our students need to be learning reading and math..not being indoctrinated that there are more than 2 genders...

I hope Columbus GA's Council took note about Columbus, GA being in the Top (well WORST) 20 "MOST DANGEROUS CITIES IN AMERICA" in 2021...Hey, Council.. not talking about it doesn't keep other cities (and industry) from not noting it.

A good friend of my bride and me went to Washington, DC last week.. She told us that while sitting in the Delta Lounge in the airport, she said Senator Warnock came in and sat next to her.. and the first thing he did was pull out his phone and place it to his ear... but he wasn't talking to anyone... he just didn't want anyone in the Lounge talking with him.. Of course, when boarding the same plane later, he got "the First Class" treatment and the same when the plane landed in Atlanta.. Excuse me.. but who does Senator Warnock represent? It seems to me that a good Senator would welcome a chance to sit in a waiting area and fly on a plane with constituents and take the opportunity to get to know them.. and have them know him better... Hey, Senator Pastor Warnock..who paid for your 1st Class ticket.... yep.. in some form, the people you snubbed...

---
hey.. Warnock sounds more like a false prophet than a disciple of Jesus... Warnock hasn't met a Commandment he tries to obey.

For a short time, I thought my "lead item" for today's "weekend update" would be: "Alabama beat in Texas by Auburn(*) 50 yard field goal".. but Bama pulled it out with a field goal of it's own with 10 seconds left.

(*) -In case you didn't watch the. Alabama-Texas game, Texas' field goal kicker is named Bert Auburn.

I get tons of E-mail from in and out-of-state Dems and Republicans alike begging for money because their opponents are raising more money than them. Just once...

Online headline: "New York Declares State of Emergency Over Polio After Virus Found In Wastewater" -- You know... back in the 60s, I collected "dimes" and "marched" in the March of Dimes campaign to eliminate POLIO from our lives... and we won.. and March of Dimes just "moved on" to become a collecting business for other causes.. The important thing is that "We Won!".. Why is his monster returning to our neighborhoods? My guess in via illegal aliens from countries that polio was not beaten? Covid-19 is not the ONLY disease not being caught at the border ...

Online story: "A scientific breakthrough against COVID-19 has been realized by Tel Aviv University. A team of scientists from the university has demonstrated that antibodies isolated from the immune system of recovered COVID-19 patients are effective in neutralizing all known strains of the virus. This includes the Delta and the Omicron variants. This discovery may eliminate the need for repeated booster vaccinations and strengthen the immune system of populations at risk, according to the researchers." -- Hmmm... wonder if the Democrats will even let this technology come into America? Heck, I wonder if the Democrats will get FAKEbook/FETA to block it as Israeli Disinformation...

He was released by the Georgia Department of Corrections from prison on April 23, 2020." -- Hmm Do the math... He was arrested in July of 2018 sentenced for a minimum of 2 years (no court date as to when sentenced), and released in April of 2022.. Obviously, he did NOT serve his "minimum of 2 years".. Hmmm...all the background checks and "new laws" in the world won't help if violent felons are back on the streets without serving full and adequate sentences.

Online story: "A 13-year-old California middle school student was arrested after bringing fentanyl to school that caused a school supervisor to suffer an overdose. * The Bakersfield Police Department responded to Chipman Junior High School Friday after the school reported that a student was in possession of about 150 fentanyl pills disguised as Percocet, according to KGET. * The pills were discovered after a search was conducted on the student in an unrelated altercation with another student, leading to a school supervisor to discover the pills and inadvertently overdose, according to BPD. Police say the supervisor did not ingest the pills, but opened the pill bottle to check it and was exposed due to them being an "inhalation hazard. * A Kern High School police officer administered Narcan to the supervisor, who was then transferred to a local hospital for treatment and was listed in stable condition. * Police say the student in possession of the fentanyl pills disguised as Percocet also had about $300 on his person, though they could not immediately say if any of the pills were sold or given to another student. The investigation was still ongoing. * The 13-year-old student was charged with possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of sales and was taken to a juvenile hall after the arrest." -- "The 13-year-old student was charged with possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of sales and was taken to a juvenile hall after the arrest."?

I agree the Confederate flags should not be flown outside in a public state site..just as I believe foreign, ethnic nor gender flags should be flown on public government sites. Now, the sculpture is something else...the same people who object to it also support "sculpture" of things like Jesus Christ on a Cross smeared with fecal matter... I certainly don't like that but I'm not trying to take it down.. I pray that the longer a disbeliever looks at it, the more they will get Christ's message.. I also pray that the Stone Mountain sculpture will remind people of how far we have come since that era... I even pray that today's Democrat voter base will learn that it was Democrats who were responsible for the Jim Crow era...
