FREEDOM FLIES AT GSU

The Bald Eagle is a symbol of liberty and free will.
President JohnF. Kennedy said, "the fierce beauty and
proud independence of this great bird aptly symbolizes.
the strength and freedom of America."
Georgia Southern has had the honor of housing
not one or two, but four bald eagles over the past
nine years. With the tradition of powerful names,
the newest addition to GSU's bald eagle community
named Freedom.
Just this past spring, Gina Holt, a nest sight attendant,
found a baby eagle in a heap of its own feathers lying
on the ground.
Lying motionless on the driveway, the bird had ap-
parently fallen from its nest. Now suffering from Cone

By Jeffrey McMurray
Associated Press
WASHINGTON - In the weeks since
his blistering speech at the National
Republican Convention attacking his
own Democratic Party, Georgia Sen.,
Zell Miller says he has noticed little
difference in how he is being treated by
his colleagues.
"I have passed all of them in the
hallway, ridden up on the elevators with
them," Miller said in an interview with
The Associated Press. "I can't think of but
two I sensed any iciness to me, and they Zell Miller
weren't the biggest of fans beforehand."
Miller, who retires in January as the Senate's most conservative Demo-
crat, says it's a myth that he has kept a lower profile since his keynote
address at the GOP convention fiercely cast Democratic presidential
candidate John Kerry as weak on defense.
Miller's campaign schedule representing President Bush has been
"much heavier" since the convention, Miller says, and he expects it to
pick up even more before the Nov. 2 election.
As for his speech, Miller says he wouldn't change a word _ and it

Our Opinion
Candidate's ramblings
don't amount to a debate
Thursday night was the second match up between President George Bush and his
opponent Senator John Kerry. The two men met in St. Louis in a town hall setting,
with members of the audience asking questions that they supposedly wrote, and that
were chosen to be asked by debate moderator Charles Gibson of ABC News.
To say it kindly, the debate was terrible. Neither man took any kind of stance
on the issues, but only hurled political rhetoric to those watching.
Saturday Night Lives Amy Poehler from Weekend Update said it best when she
announced that "the candidates took questions from the audience, and preceded
to say whatever the hell they wanted to." She was dead on.
Regardless of the question asked, each
