Random Thoughts June 2007 - Commentary by J. A. Davis
Every once in a while so many different topics come up, it's difficult to
get to every one in the depth they deserve.
With that in mind, I'm going to touch on several subjects that we at GHC
are working on, aware of, and continuing to develop.
First, I'd like to make a correction in the article I did on
"Remembrance And What If,"
regarding the 199th birthday of President Jefferson Davis.
My error will not change the thrust of the commentary, but it needs to be
corrected lest someone quotes my inept research on one point.
The margin of victory by Abraham Lincoln in the 1860 Electoral College
was 57 votes (180-123) over the combined totals of his sadly fragmented opponents, Breckinridge, Douglas and Bell. [Source:
National Archives ]
I was also partly right and partly wrong in listing some of the
Northern and Western states Lincoln lost. [ See
Electoral Results By State &
Totals by State. ]
My sincere apologies. My faculties don't seem to be quite as effective as they once were.
The one thing we know of the GHC website is that some of the best
historians and statisticians in America are watching us regularly, and we have to be on our toes. I appreciate
their reminders and corrections when we stray.
For those of you who are loyal followers of the contributions of the
GHC website authors, here is some accurate news.
Jim Dean's work
on the dimly publicized
legislation to fund La Raza by
the U. S. taxpayers is getting national attention. His timing couldn't be more
harmful to those pushing some notion they refuse to call amnesty, which includes both Georgia
Senators. Jim has also followed closely the reaction of conservatives and party members to the
betrayal on immigration "reform."
This leads to what I believe will be a serious effort to develop
Republican primary opposition to Saxby Chambliss.
We were also glad to see
the work
of our veteran GHC Steering Committee member, former long term Democratic legislator, Randy Phillips, on
the same subject, any word other than amnesty.
The power of the GHC website is being felt far beyond Georgia. A
national conservative radio talk show is discussing utilizing GHC commentators to differentiate between so-called 'new
conservatives' and the philosophy of America's Founders, and where it has led us. This follows recognition of
the emphasis GHC places on publishing real Constitutional ideology which has become
almost extinct in many forms of media.
As a little insight, they are encouraging us to expose the so-called
conservatives such of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and others who have an
agenda centered around the promotion of the Lincoln ideology of big
central government, support of big business and big military joined with
planned abandonment of the Bill of Rights including parts of the First, Second, Fourth, Fifth and
Tenth Amendments to the Constitution.
We at GHC are following some developments that we will be reporting on.
One includes a potentially huge alleged
scandal
in the highest levels of Georgia government. We are going after it in the same fashion we did with
Ralph Reed
and the Abramoff scandals.
The research and reporting on this expose will be headed by our
Webmaster, Steve Scroggins, who is joined by the GHC corps of columnists.
Another includes the news blackout that has been voluntarily agreed upon
by all the news media regarding the horrific rape, murders and mutilation of a couple in Knoxville, Tennessee.
Because of the blackout it has been difficult to get the facts on the
progress in the case.
We have now ascertained both the local and state police have fairly well
completed their investigations and have indictments against four black people amounting to as many as 46 counts. The
federal government has entered the case but has deferred developments until the state has taken action.
After much delay, we have learned that a Judge in Knoxville has set
trial dates in July and August for the four indicted.
Since you probably won't get much news on this case elsewhere, we at GHC
will try to keep you informed of the developments as they occur.
We will keep you advised as news of any
of the above items and subjects becomes available.
This is a good time to remind everyone that GHC operates on membership dues.
Our website is available to the many thousands that tune us in each day for free. Our members, who pay as little
as $5 annually provide this, and other activities GHC promotes and participates in. We have other
levels of membership at $25, $50 and $100 annually.
Whatever is comfortable to you is good for us. Whatever that is,
please fill out our membership form listed at the top of our home page. Yes, we have Paypal to make your
membership contribution as convenient as possible.
Thank you, for the continued encouragement you give us all at GHC.
