Beyond The Trestle: A more respectful call
http://beyondthetrestle.blogspot.com/2009/11/more-respectful-call.html
The blog formerly known as Safe As Houses. Friday, November 20, 2009. A more respectful call. Calls for Rep. Glenn Richardson to step down. Arguably, it's a more artful criticism that others we've seen recently, but I'm just not there yet. Richardson needs to get help - and if he opts to step down on his own that's fine - but there's no reason he should sacrifice his position yet.

Beyond The Trestle: Hmmmm ...

The blog formerly known as Safe As Houses. Thursday, November 19, 2009. University of Georgia Police Chief Jimmy Williamson, or someone claiming to be him, is taking umbrage in the comments section of this story. Joe Johnson needs to learn quote as stated. Changing people's words is irresponsible. Maybe, I need to go back to written questions with written responses.

Beyond The Trestle: Deal favors cigarette tax hike
http://beyondthetrestle.blogspot.com/2009/11/deal-favors-cigarette-tax-hike.html
The blog formerly known as Safe As Houses. Thursday, November 19, 2009. Deal favors cigarette tax hike. Rep Nathan Deal may not think President Obama is a naturally born citizen, but at least he's exhibiting some sanity on some economic issues. Past time we raised the cigarette tax, both for the short-term revenue enhancement and the long-term public health benefits.

Beyond The Trestle: Crunching numbers
http://beyondthetrestle.blogspot.com/2009/11/crunching-numbers.html
The blog formerly known as Safe As Houses. Thursday, November 19, 2009. Via a Twitter post by loyal reader Holly, we find this breakdown of the efficiency of our elected officials in Congress. And let's just say the numbers aren't good for Georgia's delegation. Sen Saxby Chambliss has seen three bills he's sponsored out of 132 get passed, while Sen. Johnny Isakson has also passed three bills out of 93. Who's down at the bottom of the list you ask? Oconee County, Georgia Politics. A more respectful call.

http://beyondthetrestle.blogspot.com/2009/11/dangerous-ledge.html
The blog formerly known as Safe As Houses. Thursday, November 19, 2009. Marco Rubio, who is challenging moderate Republican Gov. Charlie Crist in the GOP Senate primary in Florida, is one of several conservative leaders blindly lurching to the right in an effort to purge the party. Via Andrew Sullivan. We find out that Rubio is now openly criticizing President Ronald Reagan, and Sullivan is baffled, but not stunned . The direction the GOP is heading does require a repudiation of Reagan's legacy.
