If that is what the Perry County folks want then let them go for it. An additional Holiday now and then does not hurt anyone.

Anyone having a problem with this is just probably jealous.

In honor of Obama and his supporters: Make it a day you don't WORK, and UNPAID!
We could call it: "The First Affirmative Action President's Day"!
