Dear Editor,
I’m responding to a recent post made on Facebook by State Representative Karl Olver over remarks made by Congressman Bennie Thompson in a Homeland Security Committee hearing.
For the purpose of recognizing the representative as a constituent of Mr. Thompson, I will refer to the representative as Karl. I appreciate Karl making the post on Facebook.
Firstly, it reveals a lot about who he is as an individual that has bought in to how many of his colleagues try to “excite” their supporters.

Among all the Ole Miss football players, coaches and fans reveling in the postseason success of the Rebels, one of the happiest has to be Keith Carter, the school’s athletic director.
The victories over Tulane in the first round and Georgia in the Sugar Bowl have vindicated Carter and his then risky decision to cut ties immediately with Lane Kiffin after Kiffin had decided to take the coaching job at Louisiana State University.
