GEORGIA GOVERNOR SIGNS SWEEPING IMMIGRATION REFORM BILL

[Amelia]

Revoked driver licenses of teens who failed in school

Are you sure? Failed how many classes?

[wagglebee]

All we would hear is the media saying he's named after a chicken.

[GW and Twins Pawpaw]

I'll bet he feels about his grandbabies the way I do about mine.

[bnelson44]

He looks like Ed Asner

[JRochelle]

O.K. I'll take a look at him as long as no one looks at my governor..

Mitch Daniels is the worst republican gov. in the country. Right after Arnold...:)

[teaker]

Don't forget the new "Stand Your Ground Law," and finally putting the flag issue to rest.

[LucyJo]

Bkmrk.

[Sloth]

Eliminated the gas tax following Hurricane Katrina

That was a dumb stunt.

[zarf]

[Atlantian]

First Republican Governor of Georgia in 130 years.

[msnimje]

And on July 1, 2006 what may be the toughest child sex offender law in the country goes into effect here in Georgia. That would be a real bonus during a campaign.

[Defiant]

Is that Leonid Brezhnev?

Or Ed Asner?

[Defiant]

One of the reasons that liberals have a visceral hatred of GW Bush is that he is a southern conservative. He speaks with a twang and reminds them of religion, morality and patriotism. They HATE that, absolutely hate they. They can take a conservative, barely, if he's from the midwest or north (Reagan), and they don't mind a southerner if he's of the self-loathing kind that only pretend to be religious and southern (Carter, Clinton), but they cannot abide a southern conservative, especially one with a full on drawl.

Now me, I love to drive the libs crazy, so I'm all for Sonny Perdue or Jeff Sessions or someone like that being President. I don't think either of them is well positioned for it right now, and they'd need to be doing different things right now if they were interested in the job, getting a higher profile and working the party faithful.

I live here and I like Gov Perdue; normally I would not have thought about him as a presidential candidate but who knows? The Pub will be running against a pair of flip-flops in any case. As bad as Republicans may be, the Democrats are stale moldy toast IMHO. I am reminded daily of the immortal words of Will Rogers:

"I belong to no organized political party -- I am a Democrat." --Will Rogers

[panthermom]

I remember when he took office, people in the state goverment where all up in arms because of the firm stand he took on waste. We survived and I like the fact that he never waivered in spite of the pressure from the pro illegal groups regarding the new law. I never actually thought of him as president but now that you mention it, sounds like something to consider.

[KoRn]

I love the guy, but I doubt he's electable at the head of a presidential ticket. I wish he would move to Florida and run against Nelson since they don't have any winnable opposition to him down there.

[AzaleaCity5691]

Also has a credibility problem. Namely, he built his 2002 campaign around one issue, an issue that won him normally Democratic rural areas of the state. That was, a vote on the 1956 flag. This was one of the first things he turned his back on. Politicians who don't support said flag would still use it against him in a primary because it showed he was willing to say something to get elected, while once in office, doing the opposite.

[nopardons]

Very interesting. Is he thinking of running?
