I just heard via email that Left on Lanier, a north Georgia Progressive Blog has gotten some national attention.
The Daily Kos, a national blog, listed Left on Lanier as a local Georgia blog. I guess that's a good thing.
It's not a personal endorsement from Liz Cheney ... but, Dang!

A New Candidate for Office?
Left on Lanier is a Hall County blog that does quite well with local, state, and some national issues. I just read of my candidacy for County Commissioner at LoL.
LoL could mean 'Laugh Out Loud' or Left on Lanier. In this case, it could be either.
Yes, I've been saying that any idiot would do a better job that that Chris Lutz guy. Why? Just because he associates with Craig Fetterman* who is a certified true Conservative. That is reason enough.
But do I want to run? Yeah. I have things that need to be said. I don't want the job of County Commissioner or any other 'elected' position. Winning a debate doesn't excite me much either. Winning an election? Only a rat can win a rat race. I'm disqualified at least on DNA.
So why invest enough time and effort to at least not embarrass myself?
I don't see any pay off in being known as 'politician' in our community. Being the third nutcase on the left is a better reputation.
While I'm still thinking about how much better government could be, please remember.
The GOP has been getting elected for 30 years on a platform that says our government is the problem. And our government and our economy has gotten steadily worse for 30 years.

Tiger Woods! Always first.
Couldn't help myself once I saw Bill Clinton with his pants down. This might not be politics, but two out of three cheating husbands agree. Tiger Woods is number one in public apologies.
Cartoon Fun
Just a little something on Healthcare and Washington. The GOP has been saying, "Let's Start Over!" on healthcare.
Outside of Washington, heathcare doesn't have playground do-overs. If a patient dies, they stay dead. It doesn't matter if the death was from neglect or departmental turf wars. Dead is dead. There's no starting over.
The GOP killed healthcare reform over the past 14 months by doing nothing. So to the GOP:
"You can't have a do-over if you haven't done something!"
And, to the Democrats: Eavesdrop on the message to the Republicans.
In the greatest country in the world, people are dying because insurance companies won't let doctors save lives. Period.
