I see what you mean, bubba. People just can't be trusted to form their own opinions. You would like for those squealing donkeys to shut up wouldn't you?

Has any one else had the problem of having written a serious letter to the editor only to get a person reply? Not to mention a personal invitation to meet face to face? Of course not having your letter published. WHAT??? There is sadly no public forum with which to address issues that are contrary to current policy makers.. and just how did Norm insinuet himself in this mix, I'm not sure I want the answer to that question, or maybe I do... Norm of all trades, I hear you're out there, any more words of education for us?

Sorry, of course I meant "personal" reply, at least I see my mistake and correct them in a timely fashion.

Oh gosh, here I go with a gramatical error, sorry again. I guess no one's perfect, but recognizing mistakes and correcting them goes along way, doesn't it... I'd like to think so
And yes, I know this wasn't gramatically correct either!

lucky-you are beginning to understand how the fishwrapper and outhouse wiper operates, i.e. no ethics, no responsible reporting, passing out political ads of the commisars to the commisar and his supporters to preview before the ad is ever placed in the paper so the commmisar and his supporters can make rebuttal in the same edition of the paper.
Kenneth West is to blame primarily because he let it happen, Cooper is involved along with the other commisar buddies such as manape. It shows they are using dirty tricks and Kenneth West is the dunce in the whole affair.

A friend of mine attempted to get this letter in the NGN and was slapped down completely. So where do you go from here!!
I do not have to print anything; your letter, Dick Bell's or anyoneelses. I also do not have to run this as an ad. Frankly, I am tired of being accused of lying, and the newspaper being the main issue on topics.
Kenneth West North Georgia News
West Printing westprinting@alltel.net
Dear Editor Mr. Bell said in last weeks (NGN) "Assuming he (Harold) would use Chattooga County was a fairly safe bet too, As it has the lowest per capita number and they would want to make Union County look as bad as possible." Harold's paid ad was to show the people of Union County that they are being mislead in regards to taxes, not to make Union County look bad. Bell quote "I recently read an email and saw a political ad", etc. Would imply that you had prior access. Chattooga County DOES NOT have the lowest per capita,Chattahoochee County Has that distinction. There are appox 10 other counties that have a lower tax per capita than Chattooga County. For Dick Bell to use the same figures and same Counties as Harold Did is beyond coincidence The excuses and lies keep on accumulating one upon another.. Sincerely,

Maybe Mr West needs to look inhouse for the reasons the newspaper is the main issue.
Maybe Mr West is the dunce in this whole affair and is being used without his knowledge by one of his employees.

It is news to me that I am involved in dirty tricks.
When a private citizen publishes a difference in opinions in the NGN, you call it dirty tricks, unethical, and an outrage. Watch it when you slander and liable a private citizen.
Here is the bottom line. If Cook can't use simple statistical comparisons on his website, how can we trust him to get the budget right? PERIOD.

Mr. Reed. Dick Bell may not appreciate you using his name on the Internet without his permission. After all, he is a private citizen and you sir are violating his constitutional right to privacy.

For that matter, is there a constitutional right to "Freedom of expression", to be presumed innocent, or to not be taxed without representation?
How about any reference to "God" or "Creator" ... or even an "electoral college"?

you fail to tell everyone that Cook uses Paris' numbers published in the NGN, so if you don't trust the numbers, blame the commisar.

"When a private citizen publishes a difference in opinions in the NGN, you call it dirty tricks, unethical, and an outrage. Watch it when you slander and liable a private citizen. "
This is what I really said:
"no ethics, no responsible reporting, passing out political ads of the commisars to the commisar and his supporters to preview before the ad is ever placed in the paper so the commmisar and his supporters can make rebuttal in the same edition of the paper. Watch it when you slander and liable a private citizen."
I did NOT call it an outrage, as usual the Ape's mental function is not working.
Also no slander involved, as the comment was directed at the NGN, heck I've slandered you more than anyone, you gonna sue me?
and it's spelled libel.
