BRACK: Here’s another example of us having too much government

By Elliott Brack | FEB. 11, 2020  | We’ve got too much government.  People in both political camps can agree on this.  It’s the way you go about governing that divides us. The question is where you put your emphasis on what government should do.

VIEW: Newnan inspires thought: Let’s not allow dividers to win

By Andy Brack  | U.S. Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., said something a couple of weeks back that’s been circling through my brain: “Look, I have this firm belief that if America hasn’t broken your heart, you don’t love her enough.”

My heart is breaking as our nation is being torn apart in ways never imagined by founding fathers and leaders of the country for 200 years.

BRACK: Do you have a continual tickling cough?  Here’s one solution

By Elliott Brack  | For over a year, I have had this continual cough. It’s not a cough from a cold, but an occasional tickling of the throat that brings on a cough. Sometimes it erupts into a “coughing fit,” with the best remedy a cough drop. That lubrication somehow stops the cough. It could happen two or three times a day, and even awaken me at sleep.
