I hope the Pubbies grease those guys; but realistically, with the gerrymander, my Georgia friends say that Atlanta and its near suburbs (which are choked with fairly recent -- w/in the last 20 years -- Yankee transplants) basically have begun to wag the Georgia dog. The rest of the state may not be able to do anything about Atlanta's misbehavior and South-bashing any more.

I traveled through Atlanta's airport a couple of times in the last two years. Even before the flag change, the mayor of Atlanta refused to fly the state flag anywhere in the city, raising instead -- and how stupid is this? -- the old, pre-50's flag, the real Jim Crow flag. Duhh?

So there it was, a huge flag of Jim Crow Georgia, floating on its pole next to the national colors at Hartsfield Airport. What a bunch of maroons. They ought to make a new, maroon flag just for those guys. Maroon, with a little pink weenie in the middle. Or maybe a little pink rhinoceros.

Ahaha, good one there. The weenie would be my vote. After all, liberal socialist republicans are the real repubs. Conservatives in that party are the actual RINOS. ;-)

Unfortunately, that's the view that many Gerogian's have of our great state - Atlanta, and everything else.

Sen. Harold Ragan would not even return phone calls (he was my state senator). His opponent, Rep. John Bulloch is a fine and honorable man, I talked with him many times. I hope and pray that Mr. Bulloch wins.
