There are no organized cross burnings that I am aware of in Oconee County, Georgia in 2012. Feel free to let us know of any klaverns that are meeting at night down some dirty back road, and we will gladly expose the racist cockroach scum for what they are. That much being said, there really does not need to be any white hoods, cloaks and horses pulling burning crosses to lynch African Americans to taste the contempt our local public seems to have for anything resembling real integration on any scale resembling the rest of our country. The secret klan meetings may no longer be taking place in open space, but they have moved on to the country clubs, golf courses, board meetings, the authorities, the foundations, the church meetings, the not-so-secret lodges and groups, and good old boys and girls getting together under whatever auspices they wish to cover their fat and wealthy asses with at the moment. We are not talking about Southern heritage here people, but we are talking about Sou

From: "Bertis Downs" bertisdowns@me.com Date: October 24, 2012 2:13:30 PM EDT To:  Subject: Amendment 1 Friends, As you know, there are many sides to any argument and certainly in the case of the upcoming vote on the proposed Charter Schools Amendment, plenty of words have been spilled by both the Pro and No forces.   I am against amendment 1, but I will also tell you what I am FOR:  good schools for all kids.  All kids.  That to me is the only goal worth fighting for in education.   I don't think setting up an appointed commission to establish special state charter schools will move us toward that goal.  Thus my No vote.  Of the various columns written recently, I will call two to your attention from the past couple of days that I consider particularly worthwhile: Jason Carter in the Atlanta Constitution:   http://tinyurl.com/9gk2aws Dick Yarbrough in the Macon Telegraph: http://bit.ly/TRs42s   Before you cast your vote o

Obama For America Dear Athens Democrats, After a GREAT debate on Monday night, President Obama is looking at his final sprint to the White House. But because this election is so close, he's not going to be able to do it alone. As early voting continues in North Carolina, Ohio, Wisconsin, Iowa, Nevada, and Colorado, volunteers all across the country are reaching out to swing state voters, making sure that they know their polling times and locations. These swing state voters are the  key  to keeping Mitt Romney out of the White House.  Luckily
