Pat Priest pens another powerful local column

Not only does she have time to coordinate the local version of Dancing with the Stars and various book club comparisons and gatherings, but also writes the occasional column for the Athens Banner-Herald , this one about our own little strip of heaven near the fastest growing development corridor round these parts.

Political donations from 30677 for 2008 election cycle

This represents from whom the donations are coming in the political season including our recently completed special election cycle. So it seems Dr. Paul Broun, Jr. is popular with his homies and Barack Obama will face off against Mitt Romney a year from now if our donations are any bell weather for what the rest of the nation is going to do. I have seen a bumper sticker for Mitt in my neighborhood and a Kucinich bumper sticker on a car from Barrow county.
