[This is an unpolished diary that I kept meaning to get back to. But given today's shooting at the FedEx facility, I think I'd rather post it now than try to get it into shape -- which could take me a week.]

This Family Circle's "10 best towns for families" requires by law that every head-of-household owns a gun and ammunition. How's that working out?

Today, the Atlanta Journal Constitution (Atlanta GA) ran an Op-Ed piece that was the typical pure drivel about Republicans having to obey the Norquist Pledge, and how Boner was sticking to his guns because of it.

I'm submitting the following Op-Ed as a rebuttal.

I appreciate any edits, suggestions, constructive criticism...whatever you've got to make this a tighter, more readable, and overall better essay. FYI, the word limit is 450 to 600.

Thanks, y'all.

After all, if you're going to war, you've got to know when you've won. You have to be able to judge its success based on certain objectives.

The Kos Georgia group hasn't been active for a while, but now is the time for us to get organized to see how we progressives can best work within the state. Of course, you don't have to live here to join, but if you want to keep up with Georgia politics, please feel free to join us.

With Saxby Chambliss facing a run-off, there will be a lot of floor-mopping among the Republican candidates. And whether it's Karen Handel, Eric Eirckson, or that crazy guy in Marietta who brings piles of embryo = personhood bills to the floor every year, their candidate won't be so hot.

There is a real opportunity to take Saxby's seat. We need to get to work.

Sitting on top of a U-haul truck for 48 hours may seem like a strange way to draw awareness to a cause, but it sure caught my attention.

There is an epidemic of LGBT kids who are kicked out of their homes when they come out of the closet to their families. They have nowhere to go, and end up on the streets doing whatever they have to in order to stay alive.

But Richard Westbrook, through his organization Lost n Found, hoped living homeless on the truck would "raise awareness of the staggering number of homeless gay youth on Atlanta's streets."

"God's word is true. I've come to understand that. All that stuff I was taught about evolution and embryology and Big Bang theory, all that is lies straight from the pit of hell. And it's lies to try to keep me and all the folks who are taught that from understanding that they need a savior."
