The entire displaced had easy access to the ballot box. Again as I was explaining to Clyde, it would have required some effort like going to a public library and downloading an absentee ballot and sending it in. If you wanted all of your populace back, you'd be waiting years before you can vote.<BR/><BR/>Sincerely, <BR/>Kevin Boyd<BR/>Dumb Hick from St. Tammany ParishKevinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15411762644607607488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214951.post-1147306626296312142006-05-10T19:17:00.000-05:002006-05-10T19:17:00.000-05:00To Mr. Fant (hopefully, you aren't the ghost of th...To Mr. Fant (hopefully, you aren't the ghost of the past Shreveport mayor):<BR/><BR/>Try reading the column again and this time pay attention to all the unnecessary things (and cost) Ater embarked the state on. We had a perfectly good procedure in place already -- it's called <A HREF="http://www.legis.state.la.us/lss/lss.asp?doc=81341" REL="nofollow">RS 18:1307</A> and about 11,000 Louisianans took advantage of it in the April 23 election. Only a moron would need help in carrying it out, and we don't need any of them deciding elections for us (unless I suppose as in your case you need to use them to keep your allies in power ...)<BR/><BR/>Good to hear from you, Brad; long time! If us UNO grads learned anything, it was to argue with fact and logic, not ignorance and emotion.Jeff Sadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972004592729833310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10214951.post-1147298279791967792006-05-10T16:57:00.000-05:002006-05-10T16:57:00.000-05:00Take heart, Jeff, as for what "Lady Morwen" has re...Take heart, Jeff, as for what "Lady Morwen" has resorted to by petty name calling claiming she "invited Sadow to come to N.O. so a girl can kick his ass, intellectually and physically."<BR/>( http://bayoustjohndavid.blogspot.com/2006/04/stupidest-internet-series-of-all-time.html )illustrates that this is a battle that you have already won.
