[ Here is GA a law to require an original LF BC was dropped when the Feds threatened to withhold $ for the dredging of Savannah harbor. You tell me Obama and his minions aren’t terrified of the issue. Yet some claim it’s all smoke and no fire, nothing to see here, move along. Makes you wonder.
And before the Obots demand it—no, I don’t have a link. Do you think the Feds put in writing, ‘Drop the demand for the BC or we’ll withhold your $’? No, they didn’t put it in writing. But it was all anybody here in GA could talk about for a while. The $ was promised, and the state house vote was coming up.
All of a sudden the $ was threatened; the congressmen in the affected district switched their formerly strong support of the measure to ‘against’ overnight—with no other explanation than the Fed blackmail—and the $ was back on again. I’m sure the trolls will see no connection. The people here saw it loud and clear, though, and we’re the ones that matter. ]
Too bad they couldn’t get it in writing to drop the issue or no fed funds.
Nobody would be stupid enough to put it in writing. That would make it illegal. There are back-channel ways of delivering a message. Given how gung ho our reps were to pass this bill, and how abruptly they all changed in the blink of an unexplained eye, there really is no doubt. No liberal in the state believes that is what happened...and no conservative doubts it.
