Barnes (D-Mableton) wrote an apology for a previous remark and had it hand-delivered Wednesday to Cobb Commission Chairman Bill Byrne, who has said he may seek the Republican gubernatorial nomination. Earlier this week, Barnes introduced a resolution insisting that U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich reimburse the Kennesaw State Foundation for legal fees related to Gingrich's ethics case. Byrne wrote Barnes a letter opposing the measure, and Barnes jabbed back, saying: "I don't know who's going to run his campaign his lesbian daughter or his stripper daughter." The remark was published Wednesday in the Marietta Daily Journal "It was an offhand comment," Barnes said Wednesday. "When I saw that it was reported, I sent a handwritten letter to the chairman.

I made a comment about his family that was inappropriate and I apologized." Byrne did not read Barnes' response and directed his aide to mail the unopened note back to Barnes. In his letter to Barnes, an attorney who has appeared before the Cobb commission on zoning issues, Byrne wrote: "I can assure you that I will intensely be opposed to all your future political aspirations.

Noah Robinson the father of the Rev. Jesse Jackson, has died of a heart attack at the age of 88. Robinson died a few hours after being hospitalized Monday, Greenville County Coroner Parks Evans said Wednesday. Jackson, founder of the National Rainbow Coalition and presidential candidate in 1984 and 1988, said he will conduct the eulogy for his father Sunday afternoon. "It was always an honor to be Noah Robinson's son," he said.

"I will miss him." Jackson didn't learn until he was 5 or 6 that the father he was living with was not his biological father. In a 1988 interview, he said the discovery was "interesting, but it was not traumatic, because I was never fatherless or an orphan." Some of his relatives weren't so sure, recalling childhood taunts aimed at Jackson about not having a father. "Being born out of wedlock bothered him disproportionately to the way it did anyone else we grew up with," said his halfbrother, Noah Robinson Jr. "Humiliation. That's the fuel that pushes Jesse." Author Gail Sheehy, who wrote about the 1988 presidential candidates in "Character: America's Search for Leadership," said Jackson told the elder Robinson: "Just you watch, I'm going to be more than you think I can be." Robinson, who was not married to Jackson's mother, is survived by his wife, Catherine, four sons, two stepsons and several grandchildren.
