East Texas News
I recently heard
President Bush’s job approval ratings were at their all time low. While,
this may come as a surprise to some, for this journalist, it’s a case of
“we told you so.” I am talking about those opposed to Bush’s lying to
the American people about the reasons for America going to war in Iraq,
when saying “we.” I am also talking about the “we” who voted against him
when seeing through his other flawed policies. Bush’s inept, bungling
leadership has put his backers in the unenviable position of doing
damage control for his image.

Black Colleges Focus on Streets to Lure Fort Worth Students to Education
Wanting to take a bite
out of high school drop out rates and steer more Fort Worth youth from
the streets to the classroom, several historically Black college
representatives stepped up and devoted time and energy in an attempt to
stimulate young minds to consider going to college.
“Education valuable for our young people,” said Dollie Pankey, a Fort
Worth educator who represented Grambling University at the education
fair held at Inspiring Temple of Praise Church in Fort Worth. “These
kids need to understand that the less education you have, the fewer the
opportunities for finding decent employment and good pay.” |
