House Speaker David Ralston: “Your Money Is Atlanta’s Money”

by PV

Rumors have it that House Speaker David Ralston has officially flown over the Cuckoo’s Nest…and, apparently, is intent on dragging the entire state house with him.

PV Provides A Little Background: The oft-discussed T-SPLOST coming-up in 2012 had its beginnings in a vote on HB 277 in April 2010.

Bill Evelyn of the State of Georgia Tea Party (a separate entity from Georgia Tea Party and the Atlanta Tea Party Patriots) has put together an awesome video showing Speaker David Ralston in the Well of the House last year speaking on behalf of HB 277.

The video, literally, speaks for itself, and it’s a little over 7 minutes of Ralston demonstrating that a) Ralston knows NOTHING about why this country was formed, b) He knows NOTHING about how his own house district constituents likely truly feel about shoveling their money to “Atlanta”, and c) Just how OUT OF TOUCH he is with Georgians:

Today's Deep Thought

I scrambled to the top of the precipice where Nick was waiting. 'That was fun,' I said. 'You bet it was,' said Nick. 'Let's climb higher.' 'No,' I said. 'I think we should be heading back now.' 'We have time,' Nick insisted. I said we didn't, and Nick said we did. We argued back and forth like that for about 20 minutes, and then finally decided to head back. I didn't say it was an interesting story.
