Speak Out October 22

Hi this is Cher. Many thanks to the Santa Rosa Road and Bridge Department on and their prompt and excellent job of filling in the pothole by my driveway. Way to go. Thanks very much.

Yeah, this is Kenneth. I think all democrats ought to fall in line with what the President and Harry Rear expect of them. And that is that they become Americans selected to serve honorably and onward for the liberal endeavor. If they follow these dictates, every American will understand what they are and where they come from. Thank you.

There seems to be some question on the accuracy of Aaron Little’s reporting or perhaps of his selective reporting. Mr. Meiss had wanted to open R.L. Lewis’ seat for nominations rather than just outright appointing him back to his elected seat. Thank Lloyd Hinote for being the honorable city councilman for assuring that dignity remained on the council. I am glad that Mr. Meiss recognized Milton elects people, not race or gender, and it just so happens Milton apparently satisfied his quest for political correctness. I hope he does not intend to use that as a gauge for future decisions, and will do what is right and not what is politically correct. And since he wants to follow tradition, he can use Mayor Thompson as an example. We need to thank Marilyn Jones and Ashley Lay for their mature decision to nominate Jimmy Messick for the TPO. Mr. Meiss said he sent the letter to FDOT supporting the southern route before the city council’s resolution to not support it, but as you did correctly point out, it was sent after the resolution. Mr. Meiss has started his term with misinformation and has raised suspicion amongst the city council and to his future ability to uphold the oath he swore on the Bible to uphold. We do need a reporter who will report positive news, but also need one who will also be entirely honest in the reporting.

Good morning. This is Robert. I got my sample ballot yesterday and for the location of the courthouse, it says nonbinding on every one of the locations. “Non” means “not” according to the dictionary. To me that means no matter what the voters choose, the majority of the county commissioners can move it to wherever they have their vested interest. So I urge you to vote “no” on the tax until they can decide that they’ll put the courthouse where the voters want it. Thank you. Vote “no” on the tax. Bye.
