There are probably only four candidates running to fill the vacated Congressional seat in Georgia’s 6th District that you’ve heard of. Allow a fifth to introduce himself: That’s a bus wrapped for Kurt Wilson, who’s running a campaign based on term limits. That image was sent by a longtime reader who asked “Seriously?” Wrapping an
A brief note: As sad I am about the passing of Editor in Chief Jon Richards, I couldn’t add anything worth reading to the eloquent and moving tributes written by so many others. He was a good man, one who I respected and admired, and I will miss him. I am pretty certain, though, that

As Justice Potter Stewart pointed out, one may not not be able to define obscene material, but can still “…know it when [he sees] it.” And former State Representative Jill Chambers is adamant that her efforts on
Judson Hill is out with his first commercial that starts airing today. He’s up against this POS from Mutual of Omaha’s Dan Moody: And they’re both trying to catch Bob Gray, whose cookie-cutter spot has been blanketing tv screens in the district for nearly a month.
