Thanks For Conserving All That Water Now Pay More!
http://ace.mu.nu/archives/261983.phpIt turns out residents did a good job of conserving water. Too good in fact. Since usage dropped so much, water rates have to go up because according to the Fulton Country Director of Public Works, the county just cant swallow this reduction in revenue. Residents will have to make do with less money but not government. Nope, never government.

A Government of Excellence
http://www.snappedshot.com/archives/2049-A-Government-of-Exc...far has resisted. The average water/sewer bill should increase nearly $9 per month to a total of about $68 per month, water officials said. How's that classic proverb go?

Wars R Us: How Do We Break The Habit?
http://badamerican.wordpress.com/2008/05/05/wars-r-us-how-do...but inside most people know. Have you ever wondered why no pollster has conducted a poll asking the simple question of ordinary Americans - what do you think was the primary reason we invaded Iraq?
