They collect former senior intelligence officials and government officials and use their expertise to solve problems and address issues facing the intelligence and national security communities. But there s a more concise way of saying what INSA's members do: They are cheerleaders for the intelligence profession.
According to Gov. Jeb Bush over 20,000 felons could be eligible to vote in the upcoming November presidential election, having had their civil rights restored. The announcement made on Thursday, June 17th comes at a time when the state's electronic voting machines are coming under increasing fire along with another impending purge that, this time, threatens to strip more than 47,000 alleged felons from the state's list of eligible voters.

According to B.J. Blair, re-entry coordinator for the Georgia Department of Corrections, the main reasons most return to prison are technical violations of their release, such as failing to find a job or home, failing to get drugtested, failing to report to their parole officers, or failing to pay parole or probation fees or child support.
