Let the facts speak in the lawyer issue
The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal Editorial, 1/29/8 Former House Appropriations Committee Chairman Charlie Capps, D-Cleveland, was in many ways a stereotype and in other ways an anachronism. Silver-haired and cigar chomping, Capps, who stepped down earlier this decade, was the epitome of the one-time Delta legislative power broker. Capps had his customary cigar at a…

Guns: Airports should tighten weapons security
The Clarion-Ledger, 1/29/8 The air-traveling public can thank Jackson Mayor Frank Melton for increased scrutiny of passengers claiming to be police officers attempting to carry guns aboard commercial flights. If it weren’t for Melton’s odd gun-toting personality quirk, the potentially deadly issue might not have become public. The Clarion-Ledger reported on the lapse in air…

Hampton tries to carry water for Hood, but spills the bucket
“Sunshine” bill Let’s be clear here. This is a direct partisan attack on Attorney General Jim Hood. It is Republican inspired and it is directed at the state’s top Democrat. He is vulnerable on the issue politically, admittedly much to his own doing. He set himself up with bad political decisions involving outside counsel and…
