		<description>&quot;You might have patronage sucking hacks jumping from windows even at the threat of an audit from a Big 5 accounting firm. &quot;

Tell them to aim for private land, not public streets or sidewalks.</description>

		<description>&quot;Call for a real audit of the city.&quot;

Not trying to be patronizing, but I don&#039;t know if you understand the shockwaves that would send through the City of Atlanta Government.  You might have patronage sucking hacks jumping from windows even at the threat of an audit from a Big 5 accounting firm.</description>

		<description>As with everything, some people just can&#039;t grasp words with simple meanings.

Race Baiting: The art of dangling a cane pole over the fence at Atlanta Raceway during raceday with a big ole fat juicy bologna sammich attached. 

After the race starts, this is done in hope that your favorite &quot;racer&quot; will take the &quot;bait&quot; and pull his car ahead of others on the track. 

Some &quot;racers&quot; have been known to snatch the &quot;sammich&quot; from the pole and enjoy a hearty meal, one they would other wise not get until the end of the race.

For example, Tony Stewart fans spray their bread with orange food coloring, and he likes grey poupon mustard only. One fan used &quot;common&quot; mustard, only to have his sammich flung back into the stands on the next lap.

It&#039;s hard to figure out what all the commotion is about, besides, it all just boils down to &quot;racing&quot; in the long run.

Everyone wants to win the race, but there will always be only one winner. Race fans.

The next lesson will be on Bait Racing. sport of the Adirondacks.</description>

		<description>Give me a break.

Race baiting was their only intention. 


Demonbeck is correct in his assumption. Straight-forward, right out of their mouths, it was said. This was a scripted ad, planned and filmed for maximum effect. So don&#039;t make like it was a simple slip of the tongue.

Everyone will deny the political incorrectness of it all, and say some sort of oppression caused the need to do it. 

Young screwed up running his mouthin the Wal Mart mess, now him, blonde-bombshell beauty Shirley and &quot;Laverne&quot; Lewis have also weighed in. 

How we have such incompetent idiots running the premeir city of the southeast is beyond me. Shirley, she talks a good line of BS, but that&#039;s about it.</description>

		<description>The fact is Shirley has come hat in hand literally to the legislature since she took office.  This kind of rhetoric will close many of the doors she has worked so hard to open.  

I think it is time Republicans stop worrying about the pandering back stabbing hacks from Atlanta and move on with what we know is the best for all of Georgia.
1. Take the airport away from the city first thing.  Earl Ehrhart and friends need to find the balls to finish the drill
2. Take away the cities special privelages and taxing authirity.
3. Call for a real audit of the city and its use of state funds


Every time we try to get along with a Democrat they stab us in the back a la Newt and Clinton.  When the democrats start to give credit where credit is due then I think we can have an honest dialogue but until that day comes why bother with them.  They are not worth the energy or time. And before you say that is racist that means Bobby Kahn  and Dubose Porter too.</description>

		<description>&quot;Itty bitty&quot; city, SP? I don&#039;t think so! Most of the Mayor&#039;s speech Wednesday at the Commerce Club, the one where she responded VERY emphatically to the &quot;race baiting&quot; controversy and then moved on to important issues, was about the need for good, strong, responsible  financial planning, now and way into our (and our children&#039;s) future to provide for a city that can easily be at 800K citizens within 5 years. Yet a city where 24% of the population still lives below the poverty line.  

Clearly, such a wild mix and shift is going to require a lot more creativity on everyone&#039;s part, if they are capable to rising to the occasion instead of just sending out mass mailings telling people, erroneously, that they can&#039;t vote, as Republicans wasted a campaign of mis-information doing in this election. No wonder the Mayor was angry and pushed back! Who wouldn&#039;t be?

We&#039;re bursting at the seams here in the city limits of Atlanta, and droves of motivated (and smart) young people are flocking-in. 

Tired, old, FEAR-based politics that play to white folks&#039; stereotypes about Dems and blacks is a waste of everyone&#039;s time and effort, especially when you are living, working and building in a dynamic, thriving urban environment. 

Come join in the reindeer games.</description>

		<description>This is the straw that breaks the camel&#039;s back.  The Milton County legislation will now likely sail through the upcoming legislative session, and that will be a good thing for the citizens of North Fulton.</description>

		<description>This is EXACTLY why cities in Fulton County are incorporating.  Who wants to live and pay taxes in a city who looks upon their good citizens as threats!  I agree with Debbie0040 to show them the ad when they come begging for money....AND, they will.  What is Franklin going to do with her itty bitty city when she has run everyone out of it to form their own incorporated city???   I think the next thing should be to split the county and make it 2 counties if they are that scared and feel that threatened!!!!!!</description>

		<description>A blogger, Peachtree Screed, actually punked the AJC bad on this one, from yesterday&#039;s post:

Personally, I think this entry from Doug represents the blogosphere&#039;s march on the AJC&#039;s readership.
