I need a home
Dear Editor,
Please make sure Santa sees
this.
I am a good little boy, but
shy. I have lived at MAMA's
animal shelter for about 2
months after someone dumped
me out. About the only thing
that I want for Christmas is a
home with a family who will
take care of me as if I was a
person. One other wish is for my
other canine friends to have
homes also - especially the older
dogs who never get adopted. I
look forward to seeing your
sleigh going through the sky
over MAMA's.
Love, Marco - MAMAS
Shame on you
Dear Editor,
Shame on you Bamberg
County Council for vehemently
admonishing the Advertizer –
Herald and Times & Democrat
newspapers at the December 6,
2010 County Council meeting.
These newspapers were
performing their civic duty to
inform the public and answer
questions submitted to them.
Bamberg County Council has
been wrestling with the
Bamberg County Hospital
situation for years. I do not fault
council for trying to deal with
the hospital issue. I am
criticizing them for not
communicating with the hospital
employees and the public.
County Council and the
Bamberg County Hospital
Board should have had open
dialogue with the hospital
employees and the public when
they first started to investigate
ways to improve health care
delivery in Bamberg County. If
County Council and the Hospital
Board had presented the same
information they provided at the
December 6, 2010 council
meeting when they first started
discussions about the hospital,
they would not have had upset
employees and citizens voicing
their concerns. I am pleased the
Advertizer – Herald and Times
& Democrat newspapers are
involved with informing the
public on this issue. If as the
County Council says, “Bad
information was disseminated”,
then the fault squarely lays on
the shoulders of County Council
and the Hospital Board for not
keeping the employees and the
public informed. Any and all
closed door meetings of elected
and appointed officials should
be challenged and answered to.
The Shining Light of Freedom,
cannot be extinguished when the
Shining Light of the Press is
glowing brightly on our elected
officials. Thank you Advertizer
– Herald and Times & Democrat
newspapers.
Ronald R. Moulder, citizen, Bamberg, S.C.
