LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
To the Editor:
Georgia’s new voting law is 21st century demogogary. It makes it more difficult for qualified minorities to vote. And what is with the “NO Food,No Drinks“rule in voting line. This is nothing but a vainglory power trip. I am a former poll worker, and was precient supervisor the last 2 times I worked the polls. I know all about illegal electionering. Both times I was supervisor, I had to pull rank and run off volunteers who were electioneering too near the polls entrance. One voter wanted to take a ballot from the polls, which I had to stop him from doing, on pain of prosecution. But it is overkill to deny a hungry or thirsty voter food and drinks, waiting to vote, in times like these. There is really a need to go after Trump and his US and foreign cronies for their stealing of the 2016 election. But don’t be like the Scribes and Pharisees, ”strain at a gnat and swallow a camel”. Learn from our southern heritage. According to C Van Woodward, demogogary barely suvives two generations. I happen to be a teacher, with social studies as one of my teaching areas.

To the Editor,
To remove the influence of God from America is to remove the Heart and Soul of her people, but that seems to be a predetermined and provocative action taking place in our Nation today!
In 2006, Barack Obama made the following prepared statement, “whatever we once were, we are no longer just a Christian Nation but Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, and a Nation of non believers .” Before this time, the Democrat party platform gave ascribed consideration and mention of God in their platform every 4 years.
Beginning in 2008, God was only mentioned 1 time in the platform; in 2012 all mention of God was removed and due to public pressure, they were forced to return 1 small reference to God with a minor note of “God given Potential.” The 2020 Democrat party platform used the “God given potential” statement once again!
In 2015 at a women’s summit Hillary Clinton stated that, America’s deep seated cultural and religious beliefs and structural biases have to be changed and if elected President her goal would be
to make those changes.
The moral foundation of America under God is now under siege as never before!
Our borders have been thrown open to all comers; family values and all respect for human life is being desecrated; while division and racism is used as weapons against the people. Freedom of Religion and the right to assemble is now infringed upon, while denying fair and legal representation under the law, by our judicial system. Every effort is being made to federalize our elections in violation of our Constitution and States Rights!
White supremacy, Antifa, Climate change, Critical race theory, ESG back ground checks, Social Justice organizations, to name a few, have become useful ideology of organizations, for Government, Big Tech, Financial institutions, Corporate America, and Global interests to use as tools of persuasion .
Cancel culture, character assassination, and violent actions are now daily occurrences used to discourage and silence those who choose to disagree with the daily political and media barrage of false narratives being fed to the American people.
God will never accept the egotistical endeavors of man to rule in His place, but He will definitely judge their Actions. Thank you,
