Yes, there is. Nathan Deal failed to disclose the loans to the State Ethics Commission last May as is required by law. Had he disclosed the loans as he was obligated to do, there is a very good chance that he would not have won the primary race. As for selling his house, it will not cover the loan. He owes more than he is worth, and the loan becomes due in February. And since he quit his day job, he has no income coming in.
Deal needs to step down and let someone else be the Republican nominee.
The loans you are talking about were disclosed to the State ethics committee are business loans related to the salvage business. They are up to date and being paid monthly. The information was sent in as soon as it was requested. All of that has already been hashed out. I read earlier this summer that Deal’s office was working to find out from the state what all they needed, and they would only tell them bits at a time. It is set up that way to make him look like he was withholding documents. He is being steamrolled.
The co-signing of the loan to his daughter and her husband is a totally different matter and has nothing to do with the issue above. It is a personal matter. I know many wonderful parents who have done this for their children. The business was profitable before Obamanomics - they hit hard times. He’s going to pay for it, he’s stepping up and doing the right thing. Deal is hitting hard times just like the rest of us and you malign him for it.
I don’t know what your agenda is but you appear to be spreading halftruths about Deal. If you think he should step down, why not call his office? Why help out Barnes’ cabal on a public forum like this?
