Chuck Williams has no business complaining about BOC staff comments yet alone policy

OK, first things first, I ran against Chuck Williams for the State House of Representatives in 2011. That does not give me any official platform to criticize Mr. Williams, any member of his family, or how he conducts his business or makes any comments to media. That much being said, Mr. Williams should resign his seat in Georgia House of Representatives immediately and apply/run for a slot on the Oconee County Board of Commissioners or the staff if he wishes to control the comments coming out of Emil Bashara or any other member of the Oconee County government. Mr. Williams simply has no standing to control or direct any facet of the county government, and the directive from County Administrator Jeff Benko for all staff to clear any comments to the media through him is highly impractical, near impossible to police, and completely unjustified given the pout and hissy fit thrown by Representative Williams over a potential fly-over the 10 Loop By-Pass.



Chuck, you need to get a thicker skin if you serve in public office. Toughen up, Representative Williams, and leave Oconee County governmental policy to those who are elected to do so, and quit meddling in an area where you have no business or legal authority to dictate policy.

Jeff Dantzler's arrests may be the best thing that ever happened to him

THis has next to nothing to do with Oconee County with the possible exception of the location of his former office, but a former colleague of mine on the radio got popped today for four counts. Any one who has listened to 960 the Ref AM sports talk radio or heard the UGA Lady Dawgs or men's baseball team has surely heard the encyclopedic knowledge of one Jeff Dantzler. Jeff and I are pretty much diametrically opposed poltically, but today he was arrested on four counts including DUI. I hope he gets the help he needs following his incarceration. I work for a lawyer who could help him out if he does not having someone already representing him. This man is a great broadcaster and I hope this arrest serves as a wake-up call for him and his rock and roll lifestyle. I live a far from perfect life myself but long ago and far away I learned how and when not to drink. Now we will be without he dulcet tones on Lady Bulldog broadcasts as well as on Georgia baseball games and also on the after
