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

Too bad when I was a kid there wasn't a guying our class that everybody called the 'cricket boy', because I would have liked to stand up in class and tell everybody, 'You can make fun of the cricket boy if you want to, but to me he's just like everybody else.' Then everybody would leave the cricket boy alone, and I'd invite him over to spend the night at my house, but after about five minutes of that loud chirping I'd have to kick him out. Maybe later we could get up a petition to get the Cricket family run out of town. Bye, cricket boy.
