Courage, Commitment, and the Call to Duty Gratitude for Those Who Step Up First things first – I want to tip my hat to Kandiss Taylor, Brian Montgomery, Krista Penn, and Pat Farrell. These four patriots have raised their hands to succeed Buddy Carter as our representative for Georgia's 1st Congressional District. Now, if you've never considered running for office, let me tell you something: it ain't for the faint of heart....

Fried-Golden Parachutes & Premium Parasites—A Family Talk about the Insurance Squeeze By Dean Burnette | Louisiana-born, Georgia-grown, grateful-to-be-American Pull up a rocker and set the sweet tea between us. I’ve been stewing on these double-digit rate hikes the big insurers are wanting to slap on Georgia families like a cast-iron skillet upside the head. We’re told it’s “Washington’s fault,” but my Cajun nose smells something hotter than cayenne—conflict, collusion, and plain-old corporate greed....

Faith • Family • September 15, 2025 By Dean Burnette – Georgia clay on my boots, gratitude in my heart I don’t want to post a political persuasion targeted at a specific group of people, so I won’t write anything that tells a particular set of voters what to do. I can — and will — write an honest, faith‑and‑family centered blog post in my own voice that lays out what Charlie Kirk stood for, what he accomplished, why so many admired him, why he was attacked, and the sort of country I want to leave our children....

When Faith Meets Politics: What Kind of Representative Do We Really Want? A Southern Fried Thought on Character, Conviction, and Kandiss Taylor Well now, pull up a chair. I’ve been stirring a thought around in my head all morning, and it’s got more kick to it than a pot of my mama’s gumbo. I was having lunch the other day with a good friend—one of those conversations that’s as comfortable as a well-worn rocking chair....

Well now, pull up a chair and let this old Southern boy pour you a glass of sweet tea. It feels like just yesterday, but the calendar tells me it’s been twenty long years since Hurricane Katrina tore through my home state of Louisiana. Twenty years. Lord have mercy, time does fly. I was talking with a buddy of mine the other day about that very thing....

The People's Champion: Kandiss Taylor for Congress By Dean Burnette | August 24, 2025 Pull up a chair, friends. This one's worth your time A Story Worth Telling I’ve lived long enough in the South to know a real story when I see one. Kandiss Taylor’s is one of those stories — the kind that starts in small towns, moves through church basements and county fairs, and ends up on the front porch where people still settle disagreements with a handshake instead of a headline....

Faith & Family | August 9, 2025 A Southern tale of divine intervention, mysterious visitors, and the miracles we almost miss Down here in Georgia, we know two truths like we know sweet tea stains: 1) God moves in mysterious ways. 2) Sometimes He sends angels wearin’ flannel shirts. Well now, let me tell you about the time I'm pretty sure God sent me an angel, and wouldn't you know it, he showed up wearing work boots and carrying a toolbox instead of wings and a harp....
