...maybe I'm to close to the situation to notice.

It happens a LOT. In fact, I also chastise people from my neck of the woods, Houston and Texas, about the same thing. We think that because these events are front and center in our own consciousness, everyone else knows about them, too. But it ain't so, especially if you're from less-populous areas like Alabama or Mississippi.

I guess I'm another one who never had a heart. I've been conservative from the beginning, and I just never bought the idea that the way to reduce poverty is to impose on the poor the limitations of an economically and socially destructive system.

"Is she pro second amendment?

A card carrying member of the NRA. Is that good enough?

It's a start...but remember, Georage the First was also. I'll predict the Republicians will grab more weapons then Clinton ever dreamed of.

Would it be too much to ask to not have to read many many paragraphs into the post to find out WHAT STATE you may be talking about in this? Long time freeper pet-peeve

We all have to make a living. Don't feel bad, here in Nashville....the Tennessean (another Gannett Dem blow job) is just as bad...maybe worse.

The C\L is being infiltrated with LIBERAL Yankee transfers which doesn't help either.

No where in your story does it say what state is being discussed. It is not until I get to your post that I find out that it is Mississippi.
Unless you count the part that mentions the two schoools she attended, which is still over half way down the article.

Please in the future and not just "Buggs", tell us where you are talking about.
Sometimes it is hard to keep track of the thousands of politicians.

Ironic isn't it that both the Clarion Liar and the old Jackson Daily News (both once Hederman family papers) were once staunch segregationist Jim Crow organs.

Similar story here in Nashville. The old Nashville Banner was more conservative once and then Gannett came in and bought the Banner and the Tennessean which were already merged "classified-wise" and soon dropped the Banner naturally.

My alma mater 1980. I watch them on occasion to watch Eli. That LSU game with the overtime last year was quite a spectacle.

So maybe if Tuck switches in MS, Ratliff will do the same in TX?

And he can take Jeff Wentworth with him.

"It's really irritating when someone posts without any indication as to what location they're talking about."
THANK YOU!!! I often get so frustrated when someone
posts political "breaking news" such as this......and
assumes everyone knows who and where they are talking
about. PLEASE.....always tell us the state, etc. Sure
would be appreciated.

He went to work as a lobbyist for the UN in an attempt to get the United States to pay "back dues." View him skeptically.

Yeah, really. I was scanning through the AM stations last night and heard it was forecasted to be 79 degrees tomorrow. It took me a couple of minutes to figure out I was picking up a station from San Antonio, TX.

RWP in Lincoln, NE. where it should get to 79 F by late April or so.

Yep, that's him. I saw him last about 2 or 3 years ago at my cousin's funeral. I asked him if he were going to run for Governor, Lt. Governor (he had run for that once before and had been a state senator) or something else. He said he was thinking about running for State Transportation Commissioner. He seems to have been successful. I will have to call him.

Thanks.

Was it WOAI? That's the station on which I get Rush Limbaugh via the Internet. It is one of the oldest stations in the U.S. S.A. also has KTSA, founded, I believe, in 1922. Both of these have been 24-hour talk stations for quite some time.
