WTVM-TV9 story: “COLUMBUS, Ga. - Around a thousand people gathered in Columbus for a student-led and faith-based event. * “Fields of Faith” is an event put on by Fellowship of Christian Athletes. It was held at Golden Park on Nov. 1. 8 the event was all about youth taking a “bold stand for the Gospel with scripture readings, testimonies, and amazing praise and worship.” *Along with food, all those who attended also received a Bible.” -- I remember my first FCA event... 1961...at Wynnton Methodist Church here in Columbus, GA and the featured speaker was Fran "The Scrambler" Tarkenton.. it was quite an event!


---
If you ever had any doubt whether Obama was calling the shots for Resident Biden, the fact Biden now wants a "pause" is irrefutable evidence!


---
From the "they say tomato, We say tomato" department - HamASS says "cease fire", Biden and staff says "pause"... there ain't no difference!


---
Democrat Mayor's of major BLUE cities are meeting with White House officials looking for federal help with their 'migrant crises'. Hmmm.. well, it looks like the first problem they need to talk about is their concept of what the problem is... they have ILLEGAL ALIEN crises CAUSED by the federal government which doesn't consider it a crisis..


---

Online headline/story: “Georgia education officials decide which test scores mean kids can read * The state Board of Education decided Thursday that students who score from 520 to 820 on the Lexile Framework for Reading are ready for fourth grade.” – Once again.. the State has adopted a standard that “pleases it” rather than “challenges and helps students”! The Scholastic Guided Reading Lexile Range chart shows a 3rd Grade range of 0-1120, but the state standard now considers 520 “passable”. Sorry.. this is not acceptable!

Online headline: “ Georgia to appeal order to add Black districts to state’s political maps, but special session still set for Nov. 29” -- You know, all Congressional districts should be as symmetrical as possible, and have very similar numbers, but how can anyone claim figuring out how many of a race or political party allegiance can be a determining factor? People can move to other districts, and people can change party loyalty.. when that happens, do you just change the districts lines to suit your politics?


---
Online headline: “Georgia education chief Richard Woods calls for a $3,000 raise for teachers” -- hmmm...meanwhile, in Columbus GA, the Local School Board UNANIMOUSLY gave the Superintendent a 20% raise worth an additional $40,600.00! Something is just not kosher!


---
Online headline: “‘They’re all dead.’ Witnesses recall double-homicide scene in alleged Columbus gang trial” -- When it's gang v. gang related, "self-defense" should not be allowed as a plea!


---
Online headline/story: “ Get Ready for an Unforgettable Night of Music with MIKE CLARK, JR. at Grown & Sexy 1st Friday! * The doors open at 8 pm and it's GROWN FOLKS. BYOB. : -- BYOB? Hmmm...not good... that usually means "partiers" finish off their bottles so they aren't carrying "open containers" when they drive off after the show.. Now.. the next question.. is BYOB legal anymore?


---
Online headline: “Columbus Water Works is working to remove toxic chemicals detected in drinking water” -- For nearly 7 years our CWW has paid outside lawyers to fight against the EPA about giving us better water... and now the CWW is planning on a permanent rate hike for the substandard quality of water it provides.. This is maybe a worse situation than the Business Licensing issue currently being aired in Columbus' Finance Office!


---
Online headline: “ Black Female Attorney Wins Her Ethics Case Against the Georgia State Bar” -- Let me get this straight... an attorney used information given in confidence to a person trying to hire a lawyer by discussing private facts, and the lawyer used such against the person... and she considered that "ethical"? In my book, Attorney Marsha Mignott should a been disbarred!


---
Online headline: Abrams says Biden has ‘over-performed expectation’ and blames 'harder' times on ‘global issues’ “ -- Hmmm.. you know.. by Stacey Abrams’ standards, I’m sure Resident Biden is competent..


---
Online headline: “ Columbus GA Police Department introduces the new Real Time Crime Center” -- Hmmm...sounds exciting... but it would work better if Columbus GA Council would finally give the Columbus Police Department the 100 more officers to put on the streets that were promised 15 years ago!


---
Online headline: “Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republicans passed aid $14.3 billion in aid to Israel as it fights Hamas coupled with cuts in IRS funding.” -- Yes! The Republicans needed to do this, and the 2 Republican who voted no on the bill should pay dearly in committee assignments. Now, what I want to know is why so few Democrats supported this pro-Israel bill... it would cut IRS investigations into the Biden's.


---
Online headline: “ Alabama’s first transgender mayor isn’t so happy about people knowing it” – Hmmm… Males in "Drag" are misogynists! It's just as disrespectful as costuming oneself in "blackface" .


---
WRBL-TV3 story: " The Georgia Department of Transportation announced on Thursday that Harris and Muscogee Counties were awarded with $69 million for multiple resurfacing projects. * According to GDOT, the largest resurfacing project, which GDOT values at $18.8 million will consist of 14 miles of milling, inlay, and plant mix resurfacing on State Route 85 from State Route1 to North Central Church Road in Harris and Muscogee Counties.” ;--- Hmmm... you know, it used to be that Harris County needed decent roads for its citizens to drive to Columbus because of family and household needs... but now Harris County citizens just need commuter roads to get back and forth to work in Columbus while enjoying less crime and less taxes. This project just makes Columbus residents pay more in TSPLOST taxes to benefit Harris County.


---
Online headline: “Al Sharpton joins calls for DOJ to investigate death and burial of Dexter Wade in Mississippi” -- Hmmm… With Al Sharlatan's past of making scam reports (Tawana Brawley for example) , if there's really any wrongdoing by law enforcement officials, Sharlatan is not the person Wade's family needs to be their spokesman.


---
Online headline: “Millions of dollars in jeopardy as Columbus leaders sort business license debacle” -- Wow! This isn't just about about incompetence, it's about MALFEASANCE! It's not just about fixing, it's about FIRING... It's not just about substandard performance, it's about SUBPOENAING PERSONNEL! This is worse ...way worse... than the Landfill Scandal earlier this century!


Oh! After a long... too long absence, it looks like the Columbus L-E Newspaper may be making a comeback!


Oh! (again).. Hey, Columbus, GA voters.. If Council doesn’t do something about this now, we will have the opportunity in March that we haven’t had in a long time… we get to elect/unelect 6 Councilors and a Mayor and really get a chance to clean house. Remember the Councilors that fight for us, and keep them, but let’s get rid of the others!  And it’s close enough that voters won’t forget about it!


---
Not sure how I missed it, but apparently the head of HamASS is living in Qatar... Why is Resident Biden thanking Qatar rather than demanding Qatar to capture and handover this animal to us or Israel!


---
HamASS avows...emphasizes… that its goal is to wipe Jews off the face of the Earth... Hmmm...how is that any different from Hellary wanting to eradicate all she considers "deplorable", or Resident Biden's DOJ wanting to use the FBI and IRS to wipe out President Trump's family?


---
Have you seen the journalists in Israel wearing those bullet proof vests that have "MEDIA" or "PRESS" across the front… in ENGLISH? Hey, if I was in a combat zone, I think I would want my media designation in Arabic so the IDF and HamASS soldiers could read who I am!


---
I'm hearing conversations on TV that the Israel/HamASS situation is causing 'a split' within the Democratic Party. Well, as I see it, the Democratic Party leadership is exposed to their own agenda, and a lot of the Democrat voter base has finally awakened.


---
Hmmm... a couple of needed "Why" questions: 1 - Why hasn't Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam been visible about the HamASS atrocity? and 2- Why hasn't MSM been camped out on Farrakhan's front porch?


---
Hmmm... a Connecticut McDonald's is selling its "Big Mac" meals for $18.00.. (plus taxes).. .. I remember buying my 1st Big Mac burger for 35¢ in 1964-65... and as my memory serves me, it was bigger than today's version. Now, does anyone remember when Connecticut elected a Republican Congressperson or Senator?
