One more thing what bothers me most about Party leaders like you that cover up failure of PARTY office holders is the first stage of fixing a problem is identifying and admitting you have one. It is scary you would go as far as using a study ripe with corruption and administrators being arrested to help KATY COX keep promoting the FAILED NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND policy she supports! 

If you took time to talk to teachers, parents, students…..you would know must of what I am proposing is the obvious solution. The reason it was easy for me to work on solutions that must support is I took the approach of a parent and neighbor not a political hack playing cover up for any PARTY!</description>

Once again as a loyal PARTY member you attack me personally rather than deal with the issues and solutions I have suggested. You obviously care more about protecting a PARTY office holder ie Kathy Cox than debating the educational issues with face. It is joke by anyone who knows me that I would care about someone kissing my ring. What I care about is solutions to help our future generations. I realize as a PARTY insider this is hard for you to understand!</description>

		<description>JK, 

You clearly need to worry much less about math skills and more about reading comprehension.  State Senators are free to endorse who they want.  Members of the GOP Executive Committee are not.

I admitted that I was wrong about you CAPTILIZING RANDOMLY.  You admitted that it&#039;s all about YOU, and how candidates must come and kiss YOUR RING to get YOUR endorsement.  I went back and read YOU SAID &quot;Hey I am dyslexic but I will put up my math and business reasoning skills against an ENGLISH major. It does not make one of us smarter merely different skill sets!&quot;  THE TRUTH:  Your lack of reading comprehension skills are the reason you think I am involved in a cover up or making excuses.  If you took off your tin foil hat, you might understand me better.  BTW, I was an Economics major, not an English major.

All relevant issues are not being covered by you.  YOU SAID: &quot;I find it rather ironic you accuse me of an misrepresentation when you obviously just got caught!&quot;  I asked where you stood on global warming, in the news this week, questionable data being used, and YOU SAID &quot;.................................................................&quot;

&quot;When was the last time a Senate Majority Leader in Georgia endorsed a candidate in a primary over a sitting incumbent in the same party?&quot;   As far as I know, never.  BTW, Rogers has endorsed Cagle, Graves, Kemp, McGuire, Olens, Shepherd, Fred Thompson for President and more. Tommie Williams endorses Jeff Chapman, Kemp, Olens, and I am sure there are others. 

I have the guts to answer questions and you don&#039;t.  Or would you rather go back to not answering how much of your 17% were Democrats?  My guess is at least three quarters, but it&#039;s only a guess.

Until you answer either one of my questions, I am done discussing this with you.  I am going to borrow your web page www.Idisagreewitheverythingyouareabouttosay.com .  Anything you have to say to me without answering either of my two questions is ignored and refuted.  (EVERYONE CHEERS!)

My advice, go take a reading comprehensions skills test and quit assuming the world revolves around you.</description>

The post is about Georgia’s Senate Majority Leader, Chip Rogers endorsing Rodger Hines over the incumbent Kathy Cox. As a PARTY leader you could have at least stayed silent over the 8 years of failure under Kathy Cox rather than spinning a study defending Cox which was ripe with cheating and fraud!.  

BTW when was the last time a Senate Majority Leader in Georgia endorsed a candidate in a primary over a sitting incumbent in the same party? 

As far as me backing a candidate I have pledged to help anyone who will end the failed MATH 123, promote the use of joint enrollment for vocational students, let the local distracts, colleges and technical schools set standards for graduation over the state and we promote teaching over high stakes testing.

And I do think from the positive feedback I have been given when I blast out articles about this issue on my large e-mail list that many parents, teachers and administrators feel the same way. 



And finally I know and like Roger Hines. As I have told many people who have asked me about him I am not sure what he exactly supports for reform. And I will remain silent about my support until I fully understand his or any other candidates’ platform. And with my large following on this issue I have been contacted by candidates to meet with them about solutions as well as talked to numerous lawmakers on both sides. I have made it clear as with my offer to Kathy Cox I was open to meeting with them as long as it was understood this is about finding solutions not politics.</description>

		<description>And exactly who in the GOP who is a District Chairman or statewide officer has weighed in on this issue?  Until you can name names that won&#039;t refute it, you are gulity of spin.  I am not proving to you that you are full of BS, I am proving it to everyone else.  And you are GUTLESS for not stating where you stand on Global Warming.</description>

		<description>You complain about data in tests being tainted.  You won&#039;t do the same about global warming.  

I have a job to do in my party.  That job requires that I do not take sides in a primary.  If I quit that job and joined you in a witch hunt, then next person to take my place would be barred from taking sides in a primary.  You are still having trouble comprehending that.  I am not protecting or covering up anything.  I am just refusing to you in a mob and deal out whatever brand of social justice you have in store before an investigation is over or any proof is presented.  I don&#039;t need to promote myself.  I don&#039;t have any stone tablets of prophesized doom.  You are the one who constantly promotes himself with &quot;I warned you&#039;s&quot; and &quot;I told you so&#039;s.&quot;

It seems as if all you do is throw rocks and not work on getting any real solutions enacted.  If you aren&#039;t going to run, are you backing Hines?  Or Woods?  Farokhi?  Westlake?  Until you back someone to replace Cox, it&#039;s all about you and how much you know more than everyone else.  You just love to talk to hear the sound of your own voice.  The problem is, you think we like it too.</description>

I have no personal issue with Kathy Cox. I do not hate Kathy Cox. In fact I was contacted by a mutual friend of Dana Tofig after Math 123 failed roll-out and asked if I would meet with Kathy Cox and her staff since my warning was spot on about the issues. I told them I would have no issue with a meeting as long as she understood this was not about politics only about the kids. 

And I will not mention names but is no secrete the level of support by Georgia Lawmakers even in her own PARTY is not strong. The support is way down and it is not because they do not like Kathy it is about her failed record in office. 

Once again you have avoided all relevant issues regarding her poor performance and as a PARTY leader to cover for Kathy Cox with a tainted study with  fraud and administrators getting arrested is a new low! 

If the thread was even remotely about Global Warming I would have no issue giving my opinion. Yet the thread is about how some leaders in the GOP have the guts unlike you to stand up for our country over protecting a PARTY member. 

You on the other hand would rather play political games to promote yourself in the PARTY over doing the right thing!</description>

		<description>Alright JK,

I will admit I was wrong on one thing I stated.  You do not RANDOMLY capitalize.  You capitalize to emphasize words.  BTW, the only POWER I use on PP is to make others think, and that has nothing to do with any position I may have within my party.  If you don&#039;t like it, I welcome you to move up here and run against me.  Even if you won, I would still have the same amount of power on PP.

Is that a total of 10 times you have avoided answering the global warming question?  You have some hate on for Kathy Cox and just because I am not joining your witch hunt that makes me, in your warped mind, part of some cover up.  When an investigation is over, and if Sup. Cox has been found guilty of something, I will endorse one of her opponents or at least denounce her.  I doubt that will happen, but we will see.

One of my standards for supporting someone in public office is them not being convicted of a major crime.  Is that so bad?  I also believe in &quot;innocent until proven guilty.&quot;   Disclaimer, If I really believe that something is going on I may make an exception.  If you are trying to convince me or others that there is really something going on, we are LOSING the MESSAGE because you act like a MADMAN with his HAIR on FIRE.   I am neutral on Kathy Cox&#039;s race because I am neutral on every contested statewide race in the GOP.  That may burn you up, but at least I have ethics that require me not to play favorites in races even when I want to.  IMO, you have yet to display a set of ethics higher than &quot;off with her head.&quot;

If I understand you correctly, if you were arrested for any crime, you are guilty.  And if anyone who works for you is arrested, you are gulity as well.  Is that the way you see our legal system?

You ARE a HYPOCRITE for complaining about one set of tests that are suspect and NOT another.

Since you won&#039;t answer the question on global warming, I will ask a new one.  When you got your 17.3% against Tom Price in the GOP primary, and Sinton had no opposition in the Dem primary, how many of your votes were by Dems who wanted to Sinton to run against someone who  likes to SPECFICALLY capitalize as opposed to a respected incumbent Congressman?

If you HATE Kathy Cox so much, why aren&#039;t you running against her?  You could do it for the kids future!  Only someone who loves the sound of their own voice would complain this much and not take any real action.  Is it not that you hate America, but you love the sound of your own voice more?  Or are you just tired of getting beaten in GOP primaries?

Speaking of fools, have you ever heard me complaining about Sup. Cox?  But hey, take your winnings.  I admitted I was wrong on SOMETHING.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Alright JK,</p>
<p>I will admit I was wrong on one thing I stated.  You do not RANDOMLY capitalize.  You capitalize to emphasize words.  BTW, the only POWER I use on PP is to make others think, and that has nothing to do with any position I may have within my party.  If you don&#8217;t like it, I welcome you to move up here and run against me.  Even if you won, I would still have the same amount of power on PP.</p>
<p>Is that a total of 10 times you have avoided answering the global warming question?  You have some hate on for Kathy Cox and just because I am not joining your witch hunt that makes me, in your warped mind, part of some cover up.  When an investigation is over, and if Sup. Cox has been found guilty of something, I will endorse one of her opponents or at least denounce her.  I doubt that will happen, but we will see.</p>
<p>One of my standards for supporting someone in public office is them not being convicted of a major crime.  Is that so bad?  I also believe in &#8220;innocent until proven guilty.&#8221;   Disclaimer, If I really believe that something is going on I may make an exception.  If you are trying to convince me or others that there is really something going on, we are LOSING the MESSAGE because you act like a MADMAN with his HAIR on FIRE.   I am neutral on Kathy Cox&#8217;s race because I am neutral on every contested statewide race in the GOP.  That may burn you up, but at least I have ethics that require me not to play favorites in races even when I want to.  IMO, you have yet to display a set of ethics higher than &#8220;off with her head.&#8221;</p>
<p>If I understand you correctly, if you were arrested for any crime, you are guilty.  And if anyone who works for you is arrested, you are gulity as well.  Is that the way you see our legal system?</p>
<p>You ARE a HYPOCRITE for complaining about one set of tests that are suspect and NOT another.</p>
<p>Since you won&#8217;t answer the question on global warming, I will ask a new one.  When you got your 17.3% against Tom Price in the GOP primary, and Sinton had no opposition in the Dem primary, how many of your votes were by Dems who wanted to Sinton to run against someone who  likes to SPECFICALLY capitalize as opposed to a respected incumbent Congressman?</p>
<p>If you HATE Kathy Cox so much, why aren&#8217;t you running against her?  You could do it for the kids future!  Only someone who loves the sound of their own voice would complain this much and not take any real action.  Is it not that you hate America, but you love the sound of your own voice more?  Or are you just tired of getting beaten in GOP primaries?</p>
<p>Speaking of fools, have you ever heard me complaining about Sup. Cox?  But hey, take your winnings.  I admitted I was wrong on SOMETHING.</p>

When you put in all caps it is understood as a way to emphasize the word. Second Global Warming question was only a political trick to change the topic when you guys get caught spinning BS! As I said leaders like you on both sides who care about power more than our country is why we are in a mess! Only a FOOL would buy your BS! And if FOOLS like you cover up for incompetent politician like Kathy Cox than you have no right to complain about the horrible results! 

All I can do is present the facts. And I hope you realize the PARTY brown nose points you have gained was at the expense of our kids’ future! Only someone who loves power more than their country could spin support for a party member using a study that administrators got arrested for cheating!</description>

		<description>I think I had about six causes in this thread. 

One was to point out the Konop is a hypocrite for questioning one set of tests that had questionable standards and not global warming.

Two was to be semi-entertaining.

Three was to point out that JK likes to randomly CAPITALIZE.

Four was to point out he has taken to the habit of use words like &quot;YOU SAID&quot;, and &quot;THE TRUTH&quot; in almost every thread.

Five was to make references to his stone tablets of prophesized doom.  (He’s always warning us about something he predicted.)  If anyone else has a theory about where else in left field where he is putting on his Nostrodomus cape and prognosticating, I am eagerly listening. 

And Six was to see how many times he would ignore the question about global warming.  I stopped count around seven.</description>

My only ‘cause’ is to inform voters of problems with the current system and leadership. If voters do not listen than it will be at the expense of our future generations.</description>

		<description>OK JK,

Now it&#039;s getting scary... get out of my head and answer his Global warming question so we can disagree again... and if you do, ask GOPGA about evolution v. intelligent design as science...  since that has been more associated with education (v. non-education) lately.</description>

		<description>Attn John K and GOPGA:

You guys are talking past each other, have diminished into name calling, and aren&#039;t really helping your own cause in the process.

I would respectfully ask both of you to agree to disagree and move on at this point.</description>

		<description>YOU SAID;

“What part of I am not interfering in a primary race don’t you understand?” 

“You are proving that you are terminally stupid.”

THE POINT:

You just did a great job making my point. PARTY is more important to you than your country! Until we have leadership on both sides that cares about country more than winning elections we will continue on a race to the bottom.</description>

		<description>JK,

Until you can answer the question of if you support global warming, you are not worth talking to.  I may still talk about you.

What part of I am not interfering in a primary race don&#039;t you understand? 

You are proving that you are terminally stupid.</description>

YOU SAID:

“I have also stated if you can prove that Cox knowingly did something illegal, I would come after her harder and with more impact than you can muster.”


THE CONVICTED STANDARD:

WOW your standard for public office is not being convicted of a crime? And you are neutral on ethical behavior and or basic competency of Kathy Cox as long as she is in your party and not doing time.</description>

		<description>You two brain trusts, need to work on your reading comprehension skills.  The first thing I said in this thread was that Roger Hines won my home county in a straw poll.  I have stated that I am not backing anyone in the primary.  If I want to fire Cox and hire Hines, my chance to do that is in July.  I have also stated if you can prove that Cox knowingly did something illegal, I would come after her harder and with more impact than you can muster.  

You talk about what could happen in great detail.  It is possible that a candidate could walk into bank and hold it up.  It&#039;s possible.  There would be jail time.  Someone could get killed!  Your problem is that you can&#039;t PROVE she did anything wrong.

You have problems with people &quot;using misleading and unethical data.&quot;  For SIXTH SIXTH SIXTH SIXTH SIXTH SIXTH time, do you support the theory of global warming?</description>
