Dear editor,
The Georgia Legislature conducted the annual assault on Georgia taxpayers on schedule this year. Because this is an election year, there were few delays in completing the assault so that campaigning could get underway quickly. As usual there were surprises in store for the hardworking Georgians they claim to care about. One is coming as a result of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that will allow states to collect taxes on sales made by companies with no physical presence in Georgia. Remote Sellers is the term used by the assaulting powers to be in Atlanta.
The SCOTUS (Supreme Court), perhaps realizing the desire for state governments to extract more money from taxpayers, approved the new taxing authority. This approval is another example of the overreach of the court. Prior to this vote the SCOTUS had ruled that state sales taxes were not federal business. I encourage you to read the information on this website: https://taxfoundation.org/potential-outcomes-wayfair-online-sales-tax-case/.
In my opinion, something changed and only by ignoring the Constitution could our SCOTUS approve such a tax. Do you think it could have had something to do with two appointees by the last federal administration who seem to lean toward making laws instead of interpreting them?
Anticipating a new SCOTUS ruling in favor of the states, Georgia House Bill 61 was introduced with five co-sponsors: Powell, District 171 (S.W.), England-116 (N.), Meadows-5 (N.E.), Abrams-89 (N.) and Kelley of District 16 (N.W.) Notice where these districts are located. More tax money for the Northern State of Atlanta. I encourage everyone to look up Georgia HB 61 on the internet to find out what you will be seeing starting 01 Jan. 2019: http://www.legis.ga.gov/legislation/en-US/Display/20172018/HB/61.
Scroll down to the bottom and click on “Current Version”.
Right after the SCOTUS ruled in favor of the state internet collection of sales tax, HB 61 was voted on and passed. The bill requires a 4% sales tax on items sold to Georgians via the internet if the company doing the selling meets certain requirements.
The final House vote in Atlanta was overwhelmingly approved by a hundred fifty-seven yeas to eleven nays. Five legislators didn’t cast a vote at all. State Representatives approved HB 61 and it was sent to Gov. “Cash” Deal for his signature. Deal did his part on 03 MAY 2018. The new tax is effective 01 JAN 2019. Remote sellers may collect the tax or they can put that responsibility on individuals who make internet purchases. There are options intended to have the remote seller collect the tax but taxes not collected by sellers will have to be paid by purchasers who will have additional tax forms to contend with when paying these taxes.
It is bothersome in this campaign season to listen to candidates tell us they seek office on behalf of ‘hardworking Georgians’ or that the special interests will not be allowed to influence their decisions. If candidates were truly doing something for Georgians, taxes would be reduced. State spending would lessen and people would be allowed to keep more of their money.
There is no bigger special interest group than elected officials. Most of us have to live within our means by spending less, buying cheaper stuff or a dozen other things because of our lack of financial means. Some of us wonder why government always gets the money it wants.
Claims by politicians to be working for the people seems more and more to not be the case. Politicians work for their political party, other special interests and themselves. Voters continue to be fooled by what is said rather than what is done and with the candidates in the upcoming elections, it seems nothing will be changing in favor of the tax paying citizens in our state.
Those who approved the tax will likely be reelected and to me it seems this is another example of us doing the same thing and expecting different results. Ain’t gonna happen! Just my opinion from an old man out here in the woods. Wake up Georgia!

Be careful out there
I live near the Ronald Reagan Parkway in Gwinnett County (yes, I drive in the right lane on Ronnie’s Parkway) and the speed limit is 50, nice straight road, probably should be 65 or 70, cars fly right past me and I cringe. It’s now a bigtime speed trap and I saw six police cars stopped in a line near the Lawrenceville Highway exit with blue lights flashing last Saturday morning writing tickets to six stopped cars, so be careful out there. I’d never seen anything like this and I’m an old guy. SpeedTrap.org – a good site, covers the USA and Canada. I don’t think Ronnie would approve of this sleazy activity by government vultures on his namesake road.
Delusional leftwing actor Robert DeNiro has flipped his lid. “Trump has clearly driven him insane”, says the great writer Wayne Allyn Root on ROOTforAmerica.com. Just as with Reagan, the better he does, the more the left hates him.
Elizabeth Warren, Nancy Pelosi, Alvin Greene (D- South Carolina - remember him?) are three of my favorite Demoleftists. Where do they find these nitwit losers? All three are almost as dumb as U.S. Sen. Patty Murray (D-Washington). Liberals will vote for anyone.
Some people you can’t do enough for. A small town in Ireland, Lisdoonvarna, population 300, has been forced to take in 115 Third World refugees. Check it out on BlazingCatFur.ca. This was March 2018. The town took a vote and it was 93 percent opposed to the plan. Only 93 percent? It was 197 locals voting against the plan, 15 in favor of same. It would have created an instant 38 percent population increase. That’s a percentage even higher than on our porous U.S. borders. Maybe they should sent these folks to Oakland, California instead.
News the media never bothers to mention: George Bush 1’s favorite charity is/was the United Negro College Fund (UNCF). George B. has contributed generously over the years with no publicity, no apparent appreciation from those he helped. Maybe they don’t realize it themselves. I can’t find the dollar amounts. Ronald Reagan was a generous person, too, often reading letters from desperate people seeking some kind of government aid to get on their feet financially. They would write to the president and he would respond. He would send them $5,000 or so out of his pocket, people he’d never seen before, with no fanfare, a generous man helping the less fortunate. Naturally the media hated him and claimed he was out of touch – not so.

A feel-good society
America is quickly becoming a feel-good society. Global monied groups are pushing for a borderless world.
A suggested Demoleft Presidential ticket for 2020: Mad Maxine Waters for president and South Carolina’s mystery candidate Alvin Greene (remember Alvin?) for v.p. He has an interesting story and he’s just 41, 33 or so when he won the 2010 Demo U.S. Senate primary, only to be crushed by Republican Senator Jim DeMint in November 2010.
Mr. Greene won his primary easily, without campaigning while spending little or no money. He could energize the Demos with his sparkling personality and would be a heartbeat from the presidency. I suggest a look at his amazing story on the Internet. It could be Maxine/Greene. Vote Demo 2020 on the bumper stickers!
We’re better off with Trump’s tough talk at NATO rather than the usual niceties dispensed by B.H. Obama and G.W. Bush there, points out the savvy Laura Ingraham. She calls our porous Southern border a slow-rolling invasion of the United States.
“Trump hammers NATO. Good! Let’s get out! “
Daniel McAdams on LewRockwell.com
NATO, formed in 1949, was another Harry Truman mistake. He also gave us the no-win Korean War and foreign aid. We’re still in Korea and foreign aid has grown exponentially.
“I’m unelectable in the District of Columbia.”
Congressman Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.)
“Only a fool would voluntarily talk to Robert Mueller.”
Bonnie Kristian on TheWeek.com 2-22-18
It’s still true – don’t do it. The vengeful Mueller will try to trap you. He’s desperately trying to get a scalp. I keep seeing him slinking around on the TV screen and I’ve never heard a sound from him. No one challenges him. He’s being protected by big media, of course. It’s a stacked deck. Nine of the sixteen members of Mueller’s prosecution team gave money to H. Clinton and Obama, no member donated anything to Trump. The Mueller witch hunt is well named.

Liberals hate tax cuts
Columnist Dick Morris says watch out as hard left takes over in Mexico. I would advise all to stay out of that dangerous country. Read it all at DickMorris.com, July 7, 2018 column.
Former Congressman Charles Canady, of Florida, now on the Supreme Court of Florida since 2008, introduced the Partial Birth Abortion Ban Act in the U.S. House in 1995. It was vetoed by President Bill Clinton.
Georgia just had its first state income tax cut in 37 years and far left Democrat Stacey Abrams, running for governor, wants to repeal it, thus increasing the state tax. Liberals hate tax cuts. A recent laughable poll of some 800 people claimed Ms. Abrams was ahead in the race. I’d take that bet any time. The number of Democrats holding statewide office in Georgia is zero and will remain so next year at least, the safest bet you could place.
Democrats have no job creation, no individual initiative, pushing more leftward all the time. They try to guarantee outcomes instead of opportunity.
Dennis Prager says he would rather have discrimination with liberty than no liberty to ever discriminate, referring mainly to the Colorado baker refusing to bake a cake for a same sex wedding. The baker refused and the court found for his right to do so.
The short video is still there – I was at the game in 2011 and was surprised to see the most amazing high school game I’ve seen. I stumbled across it last night. Parkview won the 2011 state baseball championship over Hillgrove by scoring 13 runs at home in the top of the 7th and final inning, after trailing by one run 10-9 and exploding for 13 to win 22–10. They had 22 runs, 21 hits and 3 errors for the day. It doesn’t seem seven years back, maybe three or four.
Crazed Leftists are going wild, which shows us Trumpism is working.

Letter to the editor
Dear editor,
With so much news reporting of this latest flap of illegal aligns crossing over into our country illegally, and finally, with a president who has the Cajones to enforce our laws of these fence-jumping criminals. I say to President Donald Trump, build that wall as high as the first heaven if that what it takes to stop this non-sense.
With respect to all the former first ladies who want to chime in and criticize President Trump for doing the job he was elected to do. I would like to ask, where was Laura Bush when her husband sat in he Oval Office?
Why was she NOT enraging the immigration problem then, and why didn’t President Bush do more while he was in office?
She should put a cork in that mouth, stand with our president. He only wants to fix this ongoing problem that the previous presidents created in the first place.
And since Laura wants so much attention, why not pay attention to those two impudent feckless daughters in the shenanigans they pulled while their dad, then governor of Texas. i.e.: mooning the capital police in a Chevrolet convertible, getting stoned on marijuana and booze up at Texas Christian University. I should know, I was the reporting officer.
And by the way, on this separation that is reported in the news of children from their parents, these parents know full well the consequences of illegally crossing the border, that their kids will be indefinitely separated and detained until the case is adjudicated. And while the case goes through out court system, these criminals and their kids, get free medical attention, free dental, free education, food, a very nice room and clothes.
I was wondering too, if any you liberals out there feels equally sympathetic for the 765,000 children separated from their active duty parents protecting your sorry no account jobless butt so you can have your stupid protest marches?.

Dear editor,
American independence won in the south.
In snow shoe mouth deep they came that 27th day of September 1780, a long column of mounted riflemen full of wrath and anger. The long slender rifles of the frontier (aka Flintlock American Long Rifle, Pennsylvania Rifle, Kentucky Rifle) were balanced across their saddles and knives strapped on their belts. They were “Over Mountain Men” from western North Carolina in the area that would later become northeast Tennessee in 1796. Several years earlier they had formed little settlements along the Watauga, Holston, and Nolichunky rivers on the western side of the Appalachian mountains.
The Revolutionary War for American Independence had not affected them until earlier in this year and due to their remote location they were virtually independent of British and American government. But the war in the north which had been ongoing since 1775 had been fought to a stalemate. Now England had decided upon a Southern Strategy and the war moved from the north to the south. Georgia, the youngest and weakest of the 13 American colonies had fallen to the British with the capture of Savannah on Dec. 29,1778. The British and their loyalist American Tory forces had moved into South Carolina and American Continentals and Whig militia patriots had suffered devastating defeats at Charleston, Waxhaws, and Camden.
British Major Patrick Ferguson had been ordered by British General Charles Cornwallis to invade the South Carolina back country between the Catawba and Saluda rivers and recruit Loyalists and suppress Whig Patriots. Within days of his invasion of the Carolina up country Ferguson had recruited many Loyalist Tory British sympathizers and had began to hunt down and punish Whig Patriots. During the summer of 1780 “Over Mountain Men” militia had swept eastward and engaged Ferguson and his Loyalist Tories in fierce little engagements at Woffords Iron Works, Musgrove’s Mill, Thicketty Fort, and Cedar Springs. They had recrossed the mountains back to their homes planning to resume resistance next Spring.

Dear editor,
The thing that a lot of people dread to hear is: “you have cancer.” The word cancer starts with the letter C, but it don’t take away from the most awesome one that starts with the letter C, and that is Christ. Even though the physical body may be destroyed by the disease, the spirit can remain triumphant: And we do know that God has the last say: We can look at cancer like this: Cancer is so limited: It cannot cripple love, it cannot shatter hope, it cannot corrode faith, it cannot eat away peace, it cannot destroy confidence, it cannot kill friendship, it cannot shut out memories, it cannot silence courage, it cannot invade the soul, it cannot reduce eternal life, it cannot quench the Spirit, it cannot lessen the power of the Resurrection.
If disease has invaded your life, refuse to let it touch your spirit. If you keep trusting God’s love, your spirit will remain strong. Our greatest enemy is not disease, but desspair. Let’s learn how to lean on and trust in the Lord.

Dear editor,
The NFL two weeks ago decided that players will either stand or the malcontents who hate this country and will NOT stand and show respect for our flag remain in the locker-room during our national anthem.
Hey! I have a news flash for you, neither the national anthem nor those old rich white guys, who by the way have enabled these spoiled, pampered jocks to become millionaires playing a childish game is the problem.
The problem is a perpetually aggrieved faction who will never be satisfied.
They should be grateful they live in a country where moron fans have fawned over them, given them celebrity status and elevated their every utterance of action into a newsworthy event.
I say take your no account shiftless nappy haired butt off the field and do your stupid protest on your own time, and leave the anthem out of it.
Giving in and omitting the anthem is a poor idea and merely encourages more of the same behavior.
The anthem helps us remember the sacrifices and gives thanks.
It wouldn’t surprise next if they want to just get rid of the flag because it offends this new demographic that is invading our country (take your pick on that race and culture since we have too many to count of indigenous people taking up America’s real estate).
And for you fans, when the anthem is played , put down your stupid phone, quit picking your nose, take that silly-ass grin off your face, and please, refrain from holding or scratching your junk!
The real sad part of this opinion letter is the parents of these spoiled feckless punks that disrespect our country. These parents are of my age and who should know better. They apparently raised these rogue urchins.
Just as with these incorrigible hood rats, the parents need to be called out too!
Well, this is not the America I grew up in, this twenty first century America I can’t even recognize now. It’s nothing short of a sewer.

Congress seems reluctant to spend money on a border wall. They’d rather spend money on foreign aid instead.
Remember the quick in and out promised in Afghanistan? We’ve now been there 17 years.
“Rights: authorizations for new areas of government control.”

Alvin Greene of South Carolina is my favorite Democrat, not that I would vote for him. He won the Decrat nomination for the U.S. Senate to oppose Republican Jim DeMint in 2010 without campaigning. Who can top that? Maybe he should run again.
How did Joe Biden ever become vice plagiarist of the USA? Where did the Repubs find such a loser as Mitch McConnell? Mitch still looks like ubiquitous character actor Edward Andrews (born in Griffin, Georgia) to me. Andrews (1914-1985) was a very good actor. Maybe Mitch is also. How did Demoleftist Patty Murray ever get elected to the Senate? Accidents happen.
Republican Brian Kemp, running for governor, caught some heat for running a campaign ad with a shotgun on his lap, but I remember liberal Democrat John Barrow when he ran for Congress and lost had his shotgun in hand in a commercial, in an effort to appear pro-gun. Remember Ross Perot? Ross was a big gun control advocate as he pretended to be a conservative. Big media neglected to tell us that, didn’t it.
Any socialists out there? The Democrat Socialists of America have a website: DSAUSA.org. At the last count I can find, there are 69 Congressional members, all Democrats. Don’t believe those who tell you both parties are alike. Republicans are the Stupid Party, Democrats are the Evil Party. I’ll take Stupid. Republicans also have some members who deserve your vote, not enough of them, unfortunately.

Leftist losers all
Rest In peace Tom Wolfe, Andy Johnson, Billy Cannon.
Donald Trump’s tax cut bill received no support from Democrats in Congress. They’re against prosperity – leftist losers all. They need mindless serfs to suffer and robotically vote Demoleft, their liberal masters.
I like this radio commercial hawking affordable insurance for people with medical issues from Big Lou. It ends with: “Call Big Lou. He’s just like you. He’s on meds too!”
Trump’s tax cut bill is “an exercise in rationalism,” says Kennedy on Fox Business Channel. She’s a keen observer of the political scene.
In Clemson, S.C. they say Don’t Doubt Dabo. I used to work with a lady who wondered why so many coaches had funny names. That’s a good question.
The Coaches Poll began in 1950.
“Don’t walk through someone else’s museum”, says Adam Corolla of watching TV shows such as Real Housewives of Atlanta, for example.
Ann Coulter says post-1970 immigrants vote 8-2 for Democrats. They’re taking jobs Americans won’t do – they’re voting like sheep for Democrats. Democrats love illegals. Does the Libertarian Party still support open borders? No wonder they’re stuck around one percent of the vote.
Hunter Hill’s state Senate district voted 56 – 39 % for H.R. Clinton yet he won reelection in a close race. That is a high income district in North Atlanta and Cobb County. Hunter lives in Smyrna. See what we mean when we say a lot of wealthy people are stuck on voting Democrat?

Letter to the editor
Dear Parents, Guardians, Visitors, and Guests,
We are excited to welcome you all to Dodge County High School’s graduation. Our school’s graduation is a time-honored tradition, and we are very proud of the ceremony that our school holds. We, the Dodge County High School Seniors, would like to ask the community--including parents, visitors, and any special guests—to allow each graduate the opportunity to receive his or her diploma in a dignified manner. We respectfully request that there be no cat calls, outbursts, or yells from the crowd. A loud outburst for one graduate detracts from the next graduate. Also, we ask that all guests turn off their cell phones and remain seated and quiet until the commencement exercises are complete. Movement detracts from our graduates and their recognitions. We seniors also request that our guests respect the formality of our special occasion and dress appropriately and accordingly. The seniors agree that anyone who violates these requests will be asked to leave the stadium. We enlist your cooperation and support so that we will not have to ask you to leave the stadium. On behalf of the senior class and student council officers, we appreciate your help with these requests and are glad you have joined us in the Class of 2018’s time of honor.
Student Council President, Zalin Dennard
Student Council Treasurer, Erianna Cuyler
Student Council Secretary, Nicholas Brown
Senior Class President, Jade Honeycutt
Senior Class Vice-President, Alora Barden
Senior Class Secretary, Carcy Clements
Senior Class Treasurer, Ambyr Wilcox
Senior Class Parliamentarian, Aysia Nelson
