Dear Editor,

I can’t say exactly when it happened, but shortly after “I am honored to accept your nomination,” she took off her lipstick and the demure hockey mom changed to a pit bull.

Alaska Governor Sarah Palin sunk her teeth into the hindquarters of Barack Obama, the liberal media, and the hypocritical elitist crowd that looks down its nose at small town America. Governor Palin showed that the character and strength of the conservative values of small town America are as solid as the Rock of Gibraltar.

With plain talk, she stood up for the real America when she pointed out the hypocrisy of Barack Obama speaking one way in Scranton and another way in San Francisco. She spoke from the heart, and it was clear that she did not need focus groups, pollsters, and other tea-leaf readers to tell her what she should say and how she should say it.

John McCain made a brilliant choice in this woman of character and inner strength. She brings a breath of fresh air to the GOP that is crisper and fresher than her state of Alaska.

The McCain-Falin ticket is one that will inspire Americans like they have not been inspired since Ronald Reagan.

Former track star humbled
Dear Editor:
I truly appreciate the Cordele Dispatch allowing me this space today to extend a “thank you” forty years late.

Mr. Man is peculiar
Men are peculiar creatures. I suppose, now that I’ve laid that provocative declaration on the table, you’ll want solid proof to back it up, though proving it will not be a difficult task; all I have to do is point to…Mr. Man.

Life, liberty, and .….accessories?
Spartanburg, South Carolina, is not the cultural center of the universe. I am qualified to make that statement based on my experiences in Spartanburg which include The Hearon Traffic Circle, The Midnight Sun, and Wofford College.

Mr. Man and childhood obesity
Mr. Man has a fat grandson. The kid lives in Texas, so we rarely see him, but according to pictures on Facebook, he is fat.

Life, liberty, and .….springtime?
Spring is officially here. I don’t care about the calendar, the baseball season, the basketball playoffs, Easter, when the Confederate Jasmine blooms, when the robins come through, when the sand hill cranes fly, or what the temperature does.

Victim thanks officers
(A story about a robbery at gunpoint ran in Thursday’s Cordele Dispatch. As is the paper’s policy, the victim was not identified. He submitted a letter of thanks, but asked that he still not be identified.
We are honoring his request because of the circumstances. Sheriff Donnie Haralson and other officers know who he is).

Life, liberty, and …vacations?
Vacations are a time to get away and escape the humdrum of your normal life. Some couples I know like to take a trip about once a quarter, just get out of town.

Mr. Man and spilled milk
We’ve come a long way, baby, but women are still second class citizens...I haven’t heard Helen Reddy roar in quite a while.
