    HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE

    PREMIUMS TO GO UP AGAINStorm claims are driving-up insurance

    prices in Georgia. Most carriers increased

    premiums 9 to 23 percent last year... andanother round of increases is on the way.

    State farm, Georgias largest home insurer,

    is seeking a 7 percent increase for next

    year... on top of a 20 percent increase

    since the start of 2010.

    All state, the number two home insurer,

    had a 23 percent increase earlier this

    year... and number three, the travelers

    group, and plans to increase rates by 18

    percent.

    Steve Manders of the Georgia Department

    of Insurance said the current increases

    result from a series of storms in 2008 and

    09... which had companies paying out a

    large number of claims. This year's round

    of tornadoes... which resulted in millions of

    dollars in damage... has not even been

    factored-in to insurance companies' future

    rate structures. 8/29/11

    WALKER COUNTY COMMISSIONER

    BEBE HEISKELL SETS THE MILLAGE

    RATES FOR PROPERTY TAXES

    ... and those rates will bring in about 205-

    thousand dollars less than last year.

    The net millage rates are 4.835 mills for

    the unincorporated areas of the county...

    and 7.196 mills for residents of the

    incorporated towns. That rate of taxation

    will bring in an estimated 7-million, 458-

    thousand dollars for operation of county

    government and services.

    All of the county's sources of income are

    down this year... including fines, sales tax

    and the property tax digest.

    County Coordinator David Ashburn said

    more than 50 homes were taken off the tax

    rolls this year... destroyed by storms.

    WALKER COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD

    HOLDS THE LINE ON PROPERTY TAX

    Like the Walker County Commissioner... the

    local school board has decided to "hold the

    line" on property taxes for next year. This

    week, the board approved intent to adopt a

    millage rate equal to the "roll back" rate of17.404 mills... the same as the current

    year. The tax digest and maintenance and

    operation levy for 2011 will be officially

    approved at the board meeting on

    September 19th.

    NEW GEORGIA CONGRESSAL

    DISTRICT REVEALED .. DISTRICT

    14TH

    Lafayette, Dalton, Rome and Cedartownwould all be in Georgia's newest

    congressional district... the 14th... under a

    plan revealed by state lawmakers.

    It's not the exact plan endorsed earlier by

    county officials in the area... including

    Walker County's Commissioner, Bebe

    Heiskell... but it does have similarities.

    The new 14th district would be oriented

    more north to south... instead of west to

    east. The current 9th district stretchesfrom Dade County to Gainesville.

    Total counties included in the proposed

    14th District number 11... plus the western

    part of Pickens County. Most of the area is

    currently represented by Congressman

    Tom Graves... though Floyd County and

    south are currently represented by

    Congressman Phil Gingrey of Marietta.

    The proposed new 14th district starts with

    Dade, Walker and Catoosa in the north...

    and stretches south to include Floyd, Polk,

    Haralson and Paulding counties in the

    south... and Murray and Gordon counties on

    the eastern boundary.

    The 14th is a new edition for Georgia,

    brought on by population growth revealed

    Written By: Dave BlountFED CRACKDOWN ON GIBSON

    GUITERS EXPLAINED

    Now we know why the Obama Regime put

    its boot on the neck ofGibson Guitar. It

    isnt about building guitars from oppressed

    wood; its about politics:

    One of Gibsons leading competitors is C.F.

    Martin & Company. The C.E.O., Chris Martin

    IV, is a long-time Democratic supporter,

    with $35,400 in contributions to

    Democratic candidates and the DNC over

    the past couple of election cycles.

    According to C.F. Martins catalog, several

    of their guitars contain East IndianRosewood. In case you were wondering,

    that is the exact same wood in at least ten

    of Gibsons guitars.

    As for Gibsons political support, Henry E.

    Juszkiewicz, Gibsons Chief Executive

    Officer, is a donor to a couple of

    Republican politicians. According to the

    Open database, Juszkiewicz donated$2000 to Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN07)

    last year, as well as $1500 each to Sen.

    Lamar Alexander (R-TN). Juszkiewicz alsohas donated $10,000 to the Consumer

    Electronics Association, a PAC that

    contributed $92.5k to Republican

    candidates last year, as opposed to $72k to

    Democrats.

    The raid served no legitimate purpose.

    Gibson was not even accused of violating

    any American law, but was shut down by

    armed storm troopers for allegedly

    violating picayune procedures India wants

    people to follow regarding the nationalityof those who work with certain wood.

    Indian officials have better things to do

    that prosecute such cases, but not our

    Injustice Department, which is heeding

    Comrade Obamas call to punish our

    enemies.

    The bigger government gets, the moreinevitable this sort of tyranny becomes.

    THE PRICE OF DONATING TO THE

    WRONG PARTY.

    To: Senator Chambliss

    Senator Isakson

    Congressman Graves

    The story, if true, of what took place in

    Nashville regarding the Gibson Guitar Company

    is more than shocking. First of all, why would

    government agents need to make a military

    entrance into a functioning American company?

    Why couldn't they have approached them with

    proper warrants and Marshall's? There are way

    too many military type actions taking place in

    America today.

    The kicker in this case, is telling them they will

    be left alone if they will move their work out of

    the U.S. If this is indeed true, how can congress

    \stand by and allow the DOJ to continue in this

    out of control manner? It is also being said that

    they give to republicans and that this may bereprisal against them by the administration. This

    kind of actions against productive Americans

    must be stopped.

    If they can do this to Gibson, they can do it to

    any company they choose.

    We would appreciate your investigation of this

    supposed outrage, and find a way to reel in this

    DOJ and their actions.

    GEORGIA SUNSHINE LAW REVISED

    By Walter C. Jones, Morris News Service

    ATLANTAComplaints of illegal

    government secrecy have more than

    doubled during last year, Attorney General

    Sam Olens told the House Judiciary

    Committee Tuesday.

    He was testifying about legislation he

    drafted to update the states Sunshine Law

    that requires state and local government

    meetings and documents to be public

    except in limited exceptions. His proposal,

    House Bill 397, would boost the fine forviolations to $1,000. The current fine for

    withholding documents is $100 and $500

    for illegal meetings.

    It would also give Olens the power to make

    a civil case rather than the current

    requirement to try for criminal charges with

    its higher burden of proof.

    His goal, he told the committee, is to target

    abuses of the current law.

    We are seeing more and more what I call

    background meetings where the issues are

    settled before the formal meeting, he said.

    An example would be a city commission

    that completes 20 items on its agenda in

    15 minutes with little debate because the

    discussions were taking place privately

    beforehand, he said.

    Another growing abuse is the use by public

    officials of private cell phones and e-mail

    accounts that they argue are exempt from

    public disclosure.

    Most witnesses from media organizations

    praised Olens for his efforts while

    suggesting tougher provisions, from higher

    penalties to lower costs for requested

    documents to awarding attorneys fees to

    lawyers who win lawsuits for violations.

    David Hudson, an Augusta attorney who

    represents the Georgia Press Association,

    objected to one provision Olens included

    that relaxes the current laws limits on

    closed meetings. Olens said it make sense

    for commissions, school boards and other

    governing entities to meet privately to

    interview candidates for senior positions

    like city manager or superintendent of

    schools.

    From our perspective, we dont know whatit is ... that they would say in a closed

    session that they would not say in a public

    session, Hudson said. ... These positions

    are so utterly important to the community

    that they ought to be able to sit in and

    listen.

    One media attorney was not enthusiastic

    about the whole notion of revising the

    Sunshine Law. Hollie Manheimer, executive

    director of the Georgia First Amendment

    Foundation, told the committee thelegislation could become a way for open-

    government opponents to attach

    amendments that weaken the current law.

    In Georgia, our laws are really not that

    bad, she said. Im afraid were going to

    end up with something worse.

    Lobbyists for the associations of city and

    county commissioners said they had

    specific concerns about individual

    Provisions in Olens proposal but they

    preferred to work them out with him. Forexample, some county commissions in

    rural parts of the state have a staff of just

    one or two people who could become

    swamped by abusive requests for

    documents from anyone peeved with the

    local government, they warned.

    In another instance, Clint Mueller, lobbyist

    for the Association County Commissioners

    of Georgia, raised a concern about whether

    a series of group e-mails to the entire body

    of a commission constitutes a meetingunder the draft law change.

    While Olens is trying to prevent discussions

    out of the view of the public by outlawing

    online debates, Mueller said governments

    dont want to be required to notify the

    media and public every time a

    commissioner hits reply all to an e-mail.

    The committee took no action at Tuesdays

    hearing since the parameters of the current

    special legislative session dont include thebill. Instead, Olens promised to meet again

    in the fall with media and government

    groups to try to find a compromise before

    the legislature meets again in January.

    Hurricane Irene - No Worries "We are

    Family"

    Posted on August 31, 2011 at 11:00am

    Federal Emergency Management Agency

    (FEMA) has issued this press release on

    behalf of those affected by Hurricane Irene.

    TROPICAL STORM IRENE: Overview of

    Federal Family's Preparations and

    Response

    Release Date: August 28, 2011

    Release Number: HQ-11-157

    Sunday, August 28, 2011 3:00 pm eastern

    The administration, coordinated through

    FEMA, is committed to bringing all of the

    resources of the federal family to bear to

    support the states and territories that have

    already been affected by

    Hurricane/Tropical Storm Irene and the

    states that are preparing for the storm.

    I guess this means we don't pay taxes

    anymore, we just provide for other

    members of our family. For the first time in

    history the Federal Family has run up a

    debt of $14.7 trillion.

    We can all buy our Federal Family Teddy

    Bear. Pull the string and it says; "Gimme

    some Obamabucks."

    Now Obama's NLRB tells a church

    school it's not religious enough

    By:Ken Klukowski | Special To The Examiner| 08/29/11 8:05 PM

    It's not enough for President Obama'sNational Labor Relations Board to target

    the Boeing plant in South Carolina. Now the

    NLRB thinks it can tell a church school

    when it's not religious enough.

    Most people have heard by now of NLRB's

    unprecedented decree that Boeing Co.

    cannot build a new airline production

    facility in South Carolina.

    But Obama's NLRB is also claiming the

    authority to dictate labor policies and orderunion elections at Catholic universities if

    they are not religious enough.

    St. Xavier University was founded in 1846,

    the oldest Catholic school in Illinois. Its

    corporate member is a Catholic body with

    the "powers for the governance of" St.

    Xavier, that "links the University to the

    [Catholic] Church and makes it an officially

    recognized member of the Church."

    St. Xavier's Board of Trustees must have at

    least four nuns from the order that founded

    the school, and, according to its bylaws, its

    governing body must "ensure [St. Xavier]

    continues its educational and religious

    mission."

    After quoting these sources and many

    others, NLRB's regional director concluded

    in true Orwellian fashion that "the evidence

    establishes" that St. Xavier is "a secular

    educational institution or university."

    To support this astounding conclusion

    flying in the face of the facts (not to

    mention common sense), NLRB claimed a1979 Supreme Court affirms this authority.

    Yet that case -- NLRB v. Catholic Bishop of

    Chicago -- actually says the complete

    opposite of what Obama's NLRB claims.

    In an instance of deja vu, the Supreme

    Court in Catholic Bishop considered a

    challenge to an NLRB order asserting

    authority over lay teachers at Illinois

    Catholic high schools. (Sound familiar?)

    NLRB claimed that it had no authority over

    a church but that it possessed power over

    church-related bodies that are not purely

    religious, such as schools. The court

    considered whether the National Labor

    Relations Act granted NLRB such power.

    Noting the religious mission of Catholic

    schools, the Supreme Court declared,

    "Good intentions by government ... can

    surely no more avoid entanglement with

    the religious mission of a school" thanlegislation the court previously struck

    down as unconstitutional violations of

    religious liberty.

    Turning to the facts of that case, the court

    reasoned, "The church-teacher relationship

    in a church-operated school differs from

    the employment relationship in a public ...

    school. There is no escape from conflicts

    flowing from [NLRB's] exercise of

    jurisdiction over teachers in church-

    operated schools and the consequentserious First Amendment questions that

    would follow."

    The court then noted that nothing in the

    law's language suggested NLRB has power

    over any church-affiliated organizations.

    The court invoked one of the most basic

    principles of American law, that a federal

    statute "ought not to be construed toviolate the Constitution if any other

    possible construction remains available."

    Accordingly, the court held that federal law

    did not give NLRB the power it was

    claiming, so the court need not consider

    whether to strike down that provision.

    Instead, it held NLRB lacked any legal

    jurisdiction to judge the schools' religiosity,

    and vacated NLRB's order.

    Far from authorizing NLRB's action againstSt. Xavier, the ruling does the opposite of

    affirming the government has no such

    power over church schools. NLRB's

    contrary assertion is a frightening power

    grab that must be taken to court.

    So economic and social conservatives now

    have a common problem. Obama's NLRB is

    being wielded as an instrument of

    unfettered federal power. Congress and the

    courts must act to end this imperial

    overreach.Examiner legal contributor Ken Klukowski

    the Truth Campaign page (This page

    Click here for a sample video.Keepit clean, simple, and to the point.

    Why we need your help:

    With the help of the mainstream media,

    liberals have stepped up their verbal

    attacks on the Tea Party movement in the

    most offensive and vile manner. Just

    weeks before our nation mourns the

    terrorist attacks of 9/11, Vice President Joe

    Biden called Tea Party PatriotsAmerican

    citizensterroristsand hostage takers.

    Congresswoman Maxine Waters, (D-CA)

    told an audience the Tea Party could go to

    Hell! At a town hall meeting held by the

    Congressional Black Caucus, Democrat

    Andre Carson (D-IN), in the most shocking,

    violent, and horrific statement uttered to

    date, claimed that the people of the Tea

    Party movement want to see black people

    hanging in a tree! The attacks are wrong

    and simply UNTRUE!

    Big-spending politicians have tried every

    strategy to destroy the Tea Party and have

    failed. Why use such deceitful vitriol

    against everyday Americans in the Tea

    Party movement? After all, we are simply

    citizens exercising our Constitutional rights

    to peacefully assemble, and elect leaders

    that represent our desires for fiscal and

    personal responsibility, free markets and

    Constitutionally limited government. The

    answer is, liberals know the Tea Party is

    changing the game in Washington by

    putting an end to the gravy train, and they

    are terrified of losing their power and

    perks.

    Untruths have a way of taking hold if good

    and honest people do not stand up against

    them. The Tea Party movement is nothing

    more than Americans who are terrified

    about our countrys $14,000,000,000,000

    debt. We know that trillion dollar (plus)

    annual deficits are unsustainable.

    We know that millions of our fellow

    Americans are out of work because the

    policies coming out of Washington D.C.

    have hindered economic growth. And we

    know that little by little, all Americans are

    losing the freedom to make decisions

    about their own lives because politicians

    and bureaucrats in D.C. continue to grab

    more and more power. These concerns

    were central in the founding of the Tea

    Party movement and they sustain our

    efforts today. The politicians are the ones

    we elect to make decisions and to govern

    responsibly, and yet they choose to attack

    the American people and blame us for their

    mistakes and corruption.

    The Tea Party movement welcomes ALL

    common sense citizens who share the

    same concerns for our country, no matter

    whom they are or where they are from.

    Weve heard the lies from the left. Its time

    Americans now hear the voices of the

    every day, concerned citizens in the Tea

    Party movement. Please help us Speak The

    Truth!

    Hobbit or Terrorist?

    Are you a hobbit or a terrorist. I guess it

    depends on who you listen to. According ot

    Senator McCain the tea party is composed

    of hobbits. According to Vice President

    Biden the tea party is composed of

    terrorists.

    Well, its been many years since I read the

    Lord Of The Rings Trilogy but as I

    remember it was the hobbits who actually

    brought everything together and saved the

    world so maybe we ARE hobbits!

    On the other hand if Biden means we are

    striking terror into the hearts of those

    politicians who want to continue business

    as usual then I am proud to be a terrorist.

    I want to be a HOBBIT! ..Cathie
