Letter to the editor
Dear editor,
Here is an honesty check for you democrats who literally give the obscene portrayal and gesture of “flipping off” anybody who supports Christianity and votes conservative.
Case and point: In 2004, Hussein Obama said and I will quote, “What I believe is that marriage is between a man and a woman,” and then, for political expediency in 2015, this new vogue and prevailing fashion of America celebrating homosexuality, Obama, flip flops and says that he “supports homosexuality”. Many democrats didn’t hold that against him.
Fast forward today in the political race for the White House by the democrats, where the field of 18 or so liberals, and yes, that buffoon (former Vice President Joe Biden) says that they would support revoking the tax exempt status of religious institutions-colleges, churches and charities-if they oppose same sex marriages, and again, many Democrats didn’t disagree.
Today, if you haven’t lived in a cave, or mirroring an ostrich with your head buried in the sand, anybody could come to the conclusion with the Democrats ideology; they believe in and support socialism over capitalism, abortions through the entire nine months of pregnancy, free taxpayer funded health insurance for illegal immigrants, and sanctuary cities.
Democratic voter is so wrapped up in anything about homosexuality, they go along with these perverts in hyphenating a dual identity in calling themselves “LBGTQ” Americans. The Democrats show where their party is headed with respect to Christianity!
The increase for hatred for all things Christian will be the beginning of the end for the Democratic party, and it will be well deserved.
A bumper sticker I once saw kind of says it all, and I think you will agree. Well, perhaps not the Democrat voter. The bumper sticker said, “Gay freedom, a woman’s right for abortion, honk if you support”. I wonder which horn GOD is honking for?

Big Media likes to hype amiable Republican losers to run against their heartthrob liberal candidates. They will claim with a straight face that Repubs such as Mitt Romney, John McCain, Gerald Ford and other like-minded types are Republicans who can “win in November,” as they say. One would have to be an idiot to trust advice from those left-wingers. They told us also that Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump had no chance.
Professor Fang Zhou immigrated legally to the USA and now teaches history at Georgia Gwinnett College, about five miles from where I live. Professor Zhou says illegal immigrants are a drain on the economy and criminal justice system. He supports President Donald Trump and freely expresses his opinions. What’s wrong with that?
Democrats in action: they seek to take rights away from law-abiding citizens while increasing the rights of illegal border invaders. There are no conservative Democrats in Congress anymore.
Pro football star Drew Brees made a Biblical reference and caught a lot of flack from the left. If he had taken a knee during the national anthem he’d have drawn praise from the in-crowd left for his supposed “courage” in expressing his views.

Dodge defeats East Laurens
By Joey Marchant
With a 34-14 victory over East Laurens, Dodge has moved a step closer to making the state playoffs for the eighth straight season.
Dodge started the night by honoring its 2019 senior class. In a touching moment, Dodge Seniors brought out a #85 jersey in honor of Kevin Mack, a Dodge County Middle School player who passed away while in the eighth grade in 2016. Kevin was loved by all who knew him. My son told me the week of the Dublin game this year that one of the last times he remembered hearing Kevin speak was in the locker room after Dodge Middle squandered a halftime lead to Dublin in the 2015 Middle School Region Championship Game. Kevin tried to encourage his teammates who were taking the loss hard. “We will beat Dublin when we get to high school,” Kevin said. Kevin’s prediction came true as Kevin’s classmates beat Dublin in high school for the next two years. His old Dodge Middle teammates beat Dublin in 2016 for the Middle School Region Championship. Kevin’s memory lives on in the hearts of his teammates as demonstrated here Friday night.
Mason Mangham kicked off for Dodge squibbing it so as to protect against what happened on the opening kickoff the prior week. East Laurens returned it to its own 41 yard line where the Dodge Defense forced a three and out to start the game.
After an East Laurens punt, Dodge took over at its own 32 yard line. Kade Harpe started at quarterback for Dodge, but he was trying to get over a stomach virus and would not make it through the first quarter. Harpe completed a seven yard wide receiver screen to Keldrick Beck on the first drive, but Dodge could not make a first down. Timmy Johnson came in to punt and got off a 51 yard punt, which was inexplicably fielded by East Laurens at the two yard line and returned to the five yard line.
AJ Melvin dropped the running back for a loss on first down. On second down, Lamarie Mitchell intercepted a pass on the 22 yard line that deflected off the hands of an East Laurens receiver. Mitchell’s feet got tangled up as he came down with the ball, so Dodge would take over there. Kade Harpe kept the ball twice for a total of eight yards. Harpe then handed to Daylon Gordon who ran 14 yards for a touchdown. Mangham added the extra point to give Dodge a 7-0 lead.
Dodge went with the traditional kickoff this time as Tyrese Johnson dropped the returner on the East Laurens 22 yard line. The Dodge Defense forced a three and out with Nathan Coley fielding the punt in heavy traffic and returning it 11 yards to the East Laurens 45 yard line. Harpe tried to continue hitting Beck for a five yard gain on a curl route between two incompletions, but Dodge would go three plays and out, and Harpe’s night would be done. Timmy Johnson punted for 33 yards angling it out of bounds at the East Laurens seven yard line. Dodge forced a three and out, and the East Laurens line drive punt went out of bounds on its own 38 yard line where Dodge would take over.
Freshman Hunter Kirkley came in at quarterback to relieve the ailing Harpe who was noticeably sick on the sidelines between possessions. Kirkley hit Davis Marchant on a tight end screen pass for a gain of 27 yards to the East Laurens 11 yard line. Dodge’s Offense stalled, and Mangham connected on a 27 yard field goal to give Dodge a 10-0 lead.
Gabe Thompson kicked off, and a host of Indians tackled the returner on the East Laurens 28 yard line. On first down, Landynn Powers sacked the quarterback for a loss of eight yards. On second down, a blown coverage by Dodge resulted in a huge play for East Laurens. Two Dodge Defenders jumped a hitch route by a receiver allowing a second receiver to catch a pass running free down the sideline. Safety Ja’Lon Jaynes slowed him up on the Dodge 40 yard line allowing Timmy Johnson to catch the receiver from behind tomahawking the ball loose momentarily before the receiver gathered the ball in at the Dodge 10 yard line. Two plays later, East Laurens completed a touchdown pass. The extra point cut the Dodge lead to 10-7.
Nathan Coley returned the kickoff to the Dodge 34 yard line. Kirkley completed passes of 13 yards and 15 yards to Beck as well as a 23 yard pass to Kevin Sykes, Jr. to get Dodge to the East Laurens eight yard line. Gordon carried for gains of six, seven, zero and a one yard touchdown. Mangham’s extra point gave Dodge a 17-7 lead.
Kane Northcutt ran the kick returner out of bounds at the 24 yard line. Timmy Johnson, Noah Cummings and Javon McNeal combined to drop the East Laurens running back for a 1 yard loss on first down. On third down, Elisha Williams sacked the quarterback for a seven yard loss to force a punt.

Letter to the editor
Dear editor,
Falling Totally Apart!
Although love is one of the most durable forces on Earth, this nation is treating it like an itch you can’t scratch.
I pray that this nation will wake up and realize that God’s word will not fail. There was quiet a few signers of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, no place it is listed separation of church and state. What the founding fathers believe in does not see m to count.
Supreme Chief Justice John Marshall spoke primary reason of religion, Christian religions is a greater influence over the souls of men than in America. President John Adams’s stated that our constitution would not function properly if separated from religious valve and standard.
Mr. Robert Winthorp, Speaker of the House, stated men in a word, must necessarily be controlled either by a power within them or by a power without them, either by the Word of God or by the strong arm of man, either by the Bible or by the bayonet. President George Washington in his farewell address reminded America that religious teaching and values must never be removed from politics and public policies dealings.
Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperits, religion and morality are indispensable, inseparable supports. Looking at the many things that will always affect this nation, lack of vision, enthusiasm, focus, inspiration, trust and above all, belief in the creator.
Heavenly Father, you have blessed us with folks of all colors afraid to go about their lives. Dear God, bless and help the good men who are running the country and gibe them help in every way. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Johnny L. Black

What’s wrong with that?
Big Media likes to hype amiable Republican losers to run against their heartthrob liberal candidates. They will claim with a straight face that Repubs such as Mitt Romney, John McCain, Gerald Ford and other like-minded types are Republicans who can “win in November,” as they say. One would have to be an idiot to trust advice from those left-wingers. They told us also that Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump had no chance.
Professor Fang Zhou immigrated legally to the USA and now teaches history at Georgia Gwinnett College, about five miles from where I live. Professor Zhou says illegal immigrants are a drain on the economy and criminal justice system. He supports President Donald Trump and freely expresses his opinions. What’s wrong with that?
Democrats in action: they seek to take rights away from law-abiding citizens while increasing the rights of illegal border invaders. There are no conservative Democrats in Congress anymore.
Pro football star Drew Brees made a Biblical reference and caught a lot of flack from the left. If he had taken a knee during the national anthem he’d have drawn praise from the in-crowd left for his supposed “courage” in expressing his views.

Halt Halloween hazards with these tips
Halloween has become a hugely popular time for fun and festivities, but with it comes the potential for a variety of fire hazards. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) encourages everyone to take these simple precautions to stay safe without sacrificing that fun.
“Halloween brings an opportunity to wear fun costumes, decorate our homes, and eat too much candy,” says Lorraine Carli, NFPA’s vice president of Outreach and Advocacy. “However, without proper safety precautions, we run the risk of turning good times into the wrong kind of scary ones.”
According to NFPA research, between 2012 and 2016, decorations were the item first ignited in an estimated average of 800 reported home structure fires per year, resulting in an average of two civilian deaths, 34 civilian injuries and $11 million in direct property damage. The decoration was too close to a heat source such as a candle or equipment in almost half of these fires.
NFPA offers these tips to stay safe during the spooky season:
Costumes: Avoid fabric that billows or trails behind you, as these can easily ignite. If you are making your own costume, avoid loosely woven fabrics like linen and cotton, which can be very flammable.

I wondered for several years how “Russia collusion expert” Robert Mueller (remember him?) every day and night appeared on the television screen, a shadowy figure slinking across the background, never uttering a word on camera. Finally he came on to testify and I saw why they kept him under wraps. I was shocked. He was a dud and didn’t seem to know where he was after the lights and cameras were turned on.
“The only ones who colluded with the Russians were Hillary Clinton and the DNC; the China and Ukraine colluders were Joe Biden and his son.”
Mark Levin
Poor Hunter Biden the energy expert is being hounded for trying to make a few zillion extra bucks overseas where he doesn’t even know the language or the business by those mean ol’ Repubs who question his conflicts of interest – imagine that. Don’t the Repubs realize Hunter’s father was vice plagiarist of the USA for eight years? The Biden duo figured they had the leftist media in their hip pocket but the situation could be spinning out of control. It’s called buying access.
I wonder again how long could Richard Nixon have stayed out of prison with either Bill or Hill Clinton’s record.
Bumper sticker of the day: FREE SPEECH is more important than your feelings.
Is San Fran Nan (cy) Pelosi a SINO: Speaker In Name Only?
“Kamala Harris is Obama 2.0…Except Angrier and More Masculine.”

Irish defeat Indians, 35-6
By Joey Marchant
The undefeated and fourth ranked Dublin Irish rolled into Dodge County where they defeated the Indians by a score of 35-6. Dodge had a great defensive game plan and was able to contain the strong Irish rushing game for nearly two quarters. In the end, Dodge’s inability to produce on offense resulted in the wearing down of the defense. Dublin ran 73 offensive plays to Dodge’s 31 offensive plays.
Dublin got the ball to start the game at its own 33 yard line after Mason Mangham intentionally squibbed the kickoff. On the first play, Dodge lost containment on a 36 yard run before Mikhail Carr could make a tackle at the Dodge 31 yard line. On first down, Javon McNeal dropped the running back for a three yard loss. On second down, a host of Indians led by Elijah Williams dropped the running back for a loss of five yards. This brought up a long third down on which Noah Cummings sacked the Dublin quarterback for a four yard loss. On fourth down, Dublin snapped the ball far over the head of the punter. Running back Jaquez Evans also handles punting and kickoff duties for the Irish, so he picked the ball up and tried to get back what yards he could breaking three tackles. However, McNeal brought him down at the Irish 36 yard line.
Dodge had an excellent opportunity to take an early lead. Daylon Gordon rushed for three yards on first down. Kade Harpe completed a wide receiver screen to Tyrese Johnson on second down, but a block was missed, and the play failed to gain. On third down, Harpe tried to change the play at the line of scrimmage, but there was some confusion and Harpe was sacked on the play. Timmy Johnson got off a 38 yard punt, which rolled into the end zone for a touchback.
Dublin drove down the field entirely on the ground, but the Dodge Defense stiffened around its own 20 yard line. On fourth and three from the Dodge 19 yard line, Dublin sent Evans into the left flat. Dodge was focused on the run, and no one covered Evans who caught a short pass and ran into the end zone for a touchdown. Dublin added the extra point and led 7-0.
The Dublin kickoff went out of bounds, and Dodge started at its own 35 yard line. Nathan Coley rushed for one yard to the 36 yard line. From there, Harpe hit Keldrick Beck on a short curl route between three defenders. Beck quickly turned and showcased his speed going 64 yards for a touchdown. The extra point was blocked, and Dublin led 7-6. Beck’s catch and run was Dodge’s only big offensive play of the night and accounted for two-thirds of Dodge’s 97 yards of total offense.
The Dodge defense would continue to stand strong forcing Dublin to punt on its next two possessions. Then late in the half, coach Roger Holmes dialed up a play Dublin had not shown on film. The quarterback dropped back as if to pass with Evans blocking before he slipped the ball to Evans from behind on a draw play. Evans headed up field, and then he cut to the outside picking up some key blocks on his way to a 45 yard touchdown run. Evans was tackled by Carr as he crossed the goal line and fell out of bounds into a piece of band equipment cutting his arm. However, he refused to leave the game. Paramedics bandaged him up at halftime until he could get further attention after the game. The extra point gave Dublin a 14-6 lead, and the half ended that way.
The Dodge offense self-destructed on the first play of the second half when Tyrese Johnson attempted to take a handoff from Harpe on the jet sweep. The ball fell to the turf, and Dublin pounced on it at the Dodge 10 yard line. Two plays later Dublin scored. The extra point gave Dublin a 21-6 lead.
