		<description>So Homer Heretic, HR needs to wake up.  Here are my simple rules of life.  BTW I am awake and energized.

Doing the right thing is always the right thing.
Always be a leader.
Never compromise principle.

Good men all follow these basic rules.</description>

		<description>I really liked this post Pete.  One of your best.

Unfortunately, &quot;Do Good Work&quot; may be too complex for these folks who appear to hooked on the idea of asking somewhat else what to do or taking orders from them.</description>

		<description>Didn&#039;t see Senator Butterworth in the Video.

Actually I know many people in Habersham who think JB is doing a great job.

Now if you want to talk about character I will share this with you.  JB&#039;s former campaign manager showed up at a meeting of the board of commission wanting the commission to buy land the manager and a partner owned.  Butterworth and the commission said no.  Jim would not help the guy who helped him get  elected with a favor.  Jim put the taxpayers first over his former campaign manager.  Character is still alive in Atlanta

Guess we will just disagree on some things, but with a name like Homer Heretic disagreeing is sort of easy.</description>

		<description>Didn&#039;t see him in the video.... Is that the thing that his Campaign Manager had the competing proeprty for sale but it didn&#039;t get picked? Now THAT would have been a story!</description>

		<description>Indy, I don&#039;t always agree with you, but if you can afford it, you should enter the public debate.

I think the public does want the truth.  Sometimes, they&#039;re just skeptical of the source at first.</description>

Nobody like me could possibly get elected. The public can&#039;t handle the truth nor can it handle the math.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;&quot;There are no heroes under that Gold Dome.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

This statement seems a little harsh.  The heroes aren&#039;t always the ones we hear about.  I believe there are a few under the dome who really do fight for the right things, even though the odds are often against them.

Indy, you might consider running for a seat and seeing what criticism you receive after a few years in office.  There will always be someone who will find something to criticize about the job you do.</description>

		<description>Howard,

“He is a guy I would trust with the care of my family and finances.”

What a joke.

You might want to check with a few people in Butterworth’s home county.  Or, perhaps this I-Team segment will enlighten you.  Butterworth is cut out of the same mold the GOP is trying desperately to purge.

		<description>Harry, 

Those two votes transferred the money of the many to the few.

I can emphatically state that he isn&#039;t serving his constituents.</description>

		<description>Where along the line did such people lose the guts to speak out and just plain raise hell when corruption is blatant and intimidation is used?

We have managed to make thugs rulers over us because no one stands up to their antics.</description>

		<description>I agree with you Pete, there are a lot of good men and women under the Dome.  Unfortunately, the type of person that rises to power is usually successful at smothering them out.</description>

		<description>Ok, he is on the Senate side and I cannot fault him for acquiescing in a voice vote.

How did he vote on SB31?

How did he vote on transferring nearly all property taxes onto homeowners from large landowners?

If he voted for those 2 things, I would be very wary of the guy.</description>

		<description>I have worked with my Senator, Jim Butterworth since he announced for office.  He is a guy I would trust with the care of my family and finances.  He is a man of character.  Lets be careful of making inclusive statements Indy.</description>

		<description>Just maybe they have learned that a little COURAGE to speak up in the face of corruption goes a long way toward being able to look constituents in the face and not look complicit in corruption.

John Adams wrote :

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution is designed only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for any other.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

If we don&#039;t get back to being moral soon in a truly transformational sense, we are looking straight at collapse and anarchy. That is what is so hideously ruinous about avoiding the truth in the financial crisis via bailouts. These practices are working to make fools and destitute of the moral in order to enrich fraudsters. You cannot punish the good and reward the evil without ripping asunder the moral fabric holding society together.</description>
