The GRA: Hypocrisy and Incompetence, Defined

Bill Simon, Monday, May 15th, 2023

It’s too bad we don’t have a Time Machine of sorts in Ga GOP politics. Because, if we did, and if the ambitious proposed amendments to the Rules of Georgia Republican Party are passed in the upcoming 2023 State Convention, perhaps we could go back in time to test the GRA’s theory of who the […]

Bill Simon, Tuesday, May 25th, 2021

What…if…? Introduction WHAT IF it could be proven to President Donald Trump, with documented facts, events, and  evidence.…what if it could be proven that the person in Georgia who is primarily responsible for the March 2020 Settlement Agreement was not, actually, the SOS, but Ga GOP Chairman David Shafer himself? What do you think Trump would do if he found out he was actually screwed over by Ga GOP Chairman Shafer? Do […]

How many judicial appointees does it take to screw-up Georgia?

PV, Monday, November 13th, 2017

Rumors have it that one of the scumbags involved in the 2014 Pumpkin Gate saga is scheduled to appear this Wednesday in front of the Judicial Nominating Commission (“JNC”) to apply for a Superior Court Judge vacancy. Since there were several scumbags at that event in August 2014, you might wonder which scumbag it is? […]

PumpkinGate: The Cover-ups – Part 2

Bill Simon, Friday, October 24th, 2014

Cover-up By Dawson County Sheriff’s Office (“DCSO”) Personnel For nearly the past two months since August 23rd, I have been engaged in filing different Open Records Requests (“ORR”) with the Dawson County Sheriff’s Office.

PumpkinGate: The Cover-ups

Bill Simon, Thursday, October 23rd, 2014

Prelude There are people involved in the Georgia Republican Party in this state who think that Nydia Tisdale (her first name rhymes with “Lydia”, but begins with the letter “N”) “deserved” the treatment she got on August 23rd, based on the story that is easiest to believe as told by some “witnesses” of the events […]

Nydia Tisdale: More Republican Than David Perdue

Since August 23rd, there have been several “claims” by several people who were at the Burt’s Pumpkin Farm event that, essentially, run something like this: “Nydia Tisdale is a plant for the liberal media and she set-up that whole scenario to get grabbed by Tony Wooten and arrested.” Well, that’s quite fascinating for people to […]

The Purpose of The Georgia Republican Party

Bill Simon, Sunday, May 12th, 2013

Since there are a lot of people who are Republican-voters in this state who appear to have very different points of view about what the “Georgia Republican Party” should be about and what it should do for the Republican “cause” in Georgia, I think it is important for everyone, whether you are an old timer, […]

Myers-Briggs & Ron Paul Supporters

Bill Simon, Friday, April 13th, 2012

Prologue This particular issue of the Political Vine was inspired by one guy making, perhaps, the most astute observation that I’ve ever heard in consideration of trying to understand what happens to cause the melee of political personality clashes between “Ron Paul People” and “Every Other Republican.” Everyone in the GOP is aware of these […]
