I was listening to The Regular Guys (link to the right) this morning and they started discussing the Fox News show Red Eye and CNN talking about the poor ratings at CNN. How bad has it gotten over at Atlanta based CNN? In the age 25-54 age demographic that advertisers most covet, the 3am Fox News show [...]

I live in Roswell, Ga, a city of 80,000 people located about 20 miles north of downtown Atlanta. Roswell is one of Atlanta’s wealthier suburbs, but we also have a large immigrant population that live up and down Roswell Rd in all the old apartments that dot the landscape.

The left just loves to make fun of all the folks that had concerns about President Obama speaking to our school children a few weeks ago.
