Prayers answered for the miners and their families, except for the one unfortunate fellow. This is an excellent start for 2006 for West Virginia and the entire country.

If Aruba thinks they can discard Natalee, and just ditz around until the USA forgets about her, they have another think coming.

Snowden looks ahead to legislative session
By Georgia E. Frye / staff writer
Sunday, January 1, 2006 10:53 PM CST

State Rep. Greg Snowden, R-Meridian, was the guest of The Meridian Star's Editorial Board last week. He discussed several topics that will come to the forefront in the upcoming general legislative session.

Snip...
The Star: State Sen. Videt Carmichael has pre-filed a bill calling for a tourist boycott of Aruba. Would you support that if it gets to the House?

Snowden: I would support it. I have been as frustrated as anyone. It is mindboggling to see how this investigation has been handled. We are accustomed, as American citizens, to having certain rights. It has been shocking to find out about, and to see.

A boycott is symbolic, but I think it would be a strong signal to express, if nothing else, our solidarity with the Holloway family and our disgust over what looks to be a botched investigation and maybe a cover-up.
