The founders are. In 1954, come to the rescue was the Historic Preservation society who had enough when the Old City Market was destroyed and they built an incredibly hideous looking parking lot. So, they band together and formeded what some called it hysterical save savannah foundation. Literally seven old ladies, some in tennis shoes, went around throwing their bodies in front of the wrecking ball to stop the progress and a Revolving Fund started to buy a house for 5,000, restore it to what it was and sell it for 25,000 or something.

Like i said, that may very well be the case, and i hope it is. But the specter of an Ongoing Investigation still hangs over her nomination. Therefore, i do not believe the senate should proceed toward quirnlg her until this toward confirming her until this matter is resolved. I want to be fair to her, but this is an important problem that needs to be resolved. I want to make one thing clear. This is about more than just mismanagement of funds or bureaucratic incompetence. This is about an Ongoing Investigation of people in ms. Colvins direct office for contract issues and allegations they purposefully misled congress in order to move her nomination through.
