Subject: Paul Broun Town Hall


Congressman Paul Broun is holding a town hall meeting tomorrow (Tues. Aug. 9) in Eatonton.


As you may remember, a previous town hall meeting by Congressman Broun inspired an audience member to ask "Who is going to shoot the President?" Sadly, Broun didn't condemn the remarks until well after his town hall had concluded, and only then due to pressure from Georgia Democrats and the national news media.


Broun has compared President Obama to Karl Marx and Adolf Hitler.


Broun has called the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta "socialism of the highest order".

Broun is an example of what we teach our kids not to be: he's intolerant, mean-spirited and wrong.

If you can, please attend Paul Broun's town hall meeting in Eatonton and ask him:

  • "Why do you support replacing Medicare with a risky voucher system that doesn't pay for the full cost of senior healthcare? Especially since the rising cost of healthcare means that this voucher will get lose its value over time?"

  • "Why do you want to save tax breaks for billionaires but vote to cut unemployment benefits when Georgia's unemployment is above the national average?"

  • "Why did you vote to shut down the FAA and lay off employees at Athens' Ben Epps airport?"

  • "How many times have you voted for an unbalanced budget? How many times have you voted for a balanced budget?"
It is time for Georgia Democrats to raise our voice. Are you in?

Paul Broun Town Hall
Tues. Aug. 9 at 6pm
The Plaza Arts Center
305 North Madison Ave.
Eatonton GA 31024 (map)



If we don't speak up, who will?

Jeff Dantzler's arrests may be the best thing that ever happened to him

THis has next to nothing to do with Oconee County with the possible exception of the location of his former office, but a former colleague of mine on the radio got popped today for four counts. Any one who has listened to 960 the Ref AM sports talk radio or heard the UGA Lady Dawgs or men's baseball team has surely heard the encyclopedic knowledge of one Jeff Dantzler. Jeff and I are pretty much diametrically opposed poltically, but today he was arrested on four counts including DUI. I hope he gets the help he needs following his incarceration. I work for a lawyer who could help him out if he does not having someone already representing him. This man is a great broadcaster and I hope this arrest serves as a wake-up call for him and his rock and roll lifestyle. I live a far from perfect life myself but long ago and far away I learned how and when not to drink. Now we will be without he dulcet tones on Lady Bulldog broadcasts as well as on Georgia baseball games and also on the after...

A deep wound waiting to be healed - restoring order and dignity in the city cemetery

Image
The Watkinsville City Cemetery is an oasis amidst the houses on the east side of the municipality, near the neighborhood once called Sidney. There is a large section of the cemetery that remains a mystery, but perhaps we can work together to dignify the eternal resting spot somewhat better than the current neglected and forgotten (not to mention unmarked) graves of 70 people, more than likely of African-American descent. They deserve to be honored as well. An effort has been undertaken to repair the graves with fill dirt to stop the continued erosion amongst the graves. The most recent grave and bench belong to Larry Sheats,  and as any one who played basketball at Herman C. Michael Park or knew him otherwise  can attest, he was among the best people this county has ever seen. Larry was always ready to help. Now it is our turn to help. Do it for someone you knew there, maybe the Hardens, or the Downs, or any number of other people, but allow me to reminisce about how L...

I strongly disagree with the impending demolishing of the iconic Watkinsville Water Tower

Image
I know the Watkinsville Water Tower near where the "Big Spring" of what was one called Big Springs, Georgia serves no functional purpose anymore. I know it is a hazard. I know it is rusty and old and past its usefulness for the most part. I see a purpose beyond the aesthetic and instead as a possible financial benefit.  I know there is a way to keep it and make money for our municipality. I wonder who is doing the seemingly shoddy job of removing it (or at least preparing to raze it) and who stands to make money off that?  The dismantling of the Watkinsville Water Tower has already caused one gas leak and I can only imagine what problems await the demolition of the dinosaur.  If it is only because a group of kids have been crawling up it, then build a fence around it. I would think the City of Watkinsville would benefit and making monthly lease fees if they would instead do what about 90% of these abandoned water towers do and that is become a cellular telephone tow...
