Job creation fund one step from approval

Sister Ruby you just NAILED the exact problem with Albany.

I am sure I will be called every name in the book for this but in my opinion if your only source of income is from entitlement programs and you are UNDER the age 62, you should have no rights to vote. Why should a person who has no desire to better themselves, their community or their nation have a say in its future?

They did purchase Cypress Pond Plantation and have completely ruined what was once a beautiful house.

Let me guess...your "remedy" is to add blacks to the school board regardless of their qualifications or background. If someone wants to talk about "violations" why dont we take a real close look at the non-profit organizations that the Sherrod's have created. The Sherrods are by far some of the most racist people in the entire state. What a joke.

State DOE: DCSS must reimburse $167,000

Here we go...I figure its a matter of time until the NAACP comes in and says the the Ga Department of Ed is racist.

Dont you idiots understand???? If Dougherty County officials would just run the agencies by the books, maybe more business would consider moving here....Oh wait...given our stellar pool of job candidates...that wont ever happen.

Obama hints at cuts to entitlements as possible budget compromise

Oh yeah, I am sure the Obama's will stay home for spring break. That would involve using judgement, being a leader, and showing a good example to the American people what a family is supposed to do when an economy and budget is out of whack. Lets not even discuss the mere millions that it costs to fly the secret service and the presidential vehicles over to whereever they go.

Just ask for a case yourself and hand them out to the runners. I know that isnt the honorable thing but would have worked.

State democrats hold town hall meeting on education

What a joke this is. Why do dems think that pouring money at things is an automatic fix??

I think if Georgia would just bring approporiate discipline back into the schools (remember how awful a feeling it was to think the principal was going to paddle you) and implement a rule that if you drop out of school you must work for the state for free until you are 18 or go into the military to dig ditches until you are 18. I know that will never happen, but it makes alot more sense than having them go to jail which usually happens. Have those that are too cool for school learn a job skill....turns them into asset rather than a liability.

Murfree lacks board support for contract renewal

Albany_Failures...........Did you just have a small fit? You completely contradicted yourself. Ask yourself this question and be honest...if you were blind and were read Murfree's resume and his ranking among the other candidates would you be proud of the job he has done? Albany will never be great again until the voters of this once great city turn a blind eye to color and open their eyes to what will truly move the needle toward a better future for Albany and SOWEGA.
Unfortunately, I dont think that will ever happen given the widespread opinion that we the people belong to the government and they should dictate everything in our lives. If you want us to wind up like Greece, just vote for Obama. I would suggest however that you learn to garden, purify water and buy bullets.

Tribunal recommends Northside Principal's contract be renewed

Again, all you idiots are declaring victory. What you dont understand is that this is yet another negative against any industry coming to this town. BubbaRed, hopefully your buddies in the city goverment can get you a seeing-eye dog for free. The only conclusion I can come to is that you must be blind. I have tried to understand your position, the only thing that seems to be the common theme with you is that as long as a few of your brethren can get away with theft, fraud, perjury and discrimination....everything is fine.

At least Mr. Cathy didnt say that he was disappointed in the direction of the DCSS....... Then we really would have an uprising.
