BEWARE of the books "Conversations with GOD" and "Conversations with GOD for Teens"
Beware of this book! Oprah and schools are pushing it. It is scary that someone would be bold enough to write a book from God's point of view contrary to His Word. Please send this warning to all with kids or…

Plan would clear up confusion, calm tempers over Jacksonville libraries
No mention of whether the taxpayers will be expected to feed and cloth these 2 new members with tax payer dollars? I also disagree with the library not having to account for donations to the library. I think donations should come right off any funding by the city. They are not a separate entity but part of the City of Jacksonville and funded by the taxpayer.
Concerns centered on too much influence by City…

City leaders making good on promise to share Jags tickets
In case no one has noticed, what Jack Webb said was a lie. They have never given these tickets away except to city employees (this is the first year they are doing this. GRRRRRRRR Are they really allowed to take property (in the form of taxes) away from one person with the express idea of giving it to someone they feel is more deserving of part of your hard earned paycheck????

The US Chamber of Commerce has letters which can be altered by you and sent, and they also send the appropriate letter depending on whether your senator voted for or against this bill (they check the voting roll call for you) in July (in our case, that's important since Bill Nelson voted for and LeMieux…

Opinion in today's paper: Tea Party: Criticism only goes so far
As I feel this writer clearly does not understand the responsibities of our city government and what the tea party is and is about, I thought and do hope some will go in and make comments? We would hardly need city officials if the tea party were responsible for doing their jobs, now would we? A link taking you to this opinion letter at bottom of opinion.

Florida senator, Duval teachers union president respond to study on merit pay
The communist or socialist approach to teaching I guess where the union thinks the whole team should get credit for the work of one person? I think individual accomplishment should be recognized and performance of the teacher, who excelled, should be rewarded. What about you?
Union president says that people seek a silver bullet…

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??
If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets. It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists.
You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
