Top Issues Facing Responders:

According to the media, the brass, the public, or to me? All have issues that are drastically different in perspective. How about Amendment 1!!! Let's see thanks to our wonderfull voting public we will lose 30 mil in 07, 32 mil in 08, and who knows how many millions we will lose out of our budget in 09. But at least they will save their 12 dollars a month. Maybe that can pay for an extinquisher and a first aid kit, because we won't be their.
