Robert's Rules of Order would tell you that the audience doesn't GET a say unless the chair allows it. So, guess what? Those "grumblers" were in the WRONG!

Allow me to inform you that Mr. Chairman (Mayor) allowed it, as you should recall if you were there. He allowed opening the meeting to the public for discussion. So don’t make statements that are not factual.

Judi-ann did do some good during her outburst when she told the people…”if they think they can do better then run for office”…I plan on doing just that for the next election…so thank you Judi. I’m coming after your Council Seat.

I did vote her in and I hope I get the satisfaction of helping to run her out.

Once the chair opens the meeting for public discussion, you can do that until it's time for a motion or vote. At that point, the talking is over. The issue at hand happened after the vote.

Sorry if I didn't make that clearer.

Judi is a rude Yankee. Get use to it or vote her off council. She is a liberal and most of the time she can not hear because she has her fire hat over her ears. But what you see is what you get. I would rather have that then someone that can never tell the truth. I expect she would do a better job as a town meeting member in a small New England town where she could count the paper clips that are used each day. She is very smart but somtimes can't see the big picture. But when you look who is sitting up there she looks really good. Says what she thinks, is not a rubber stamp for the Mayor, and can think 100 times faster then Boone ever thought of doing. Well I guess that is not really saying much. He does come up with the old saying "I agree with the Mayor" as often as he says "I have another one". As for Stuart and Cindy well ? Come on folks about 50 of you really care what is going on each day in the city and only run your mouths when if has a direct impact on you. You don't come to council meetings, you don't vote, care how bad your city looks over the last 5 years, yell about your school tax, demand the county give you the service you pay your county tax for and could care less about anything except "YOURSELF".

OK, I wasn't at the meeting, but I have not read one post where anyone said the mayor intervened to get council member Rutherford off of the senior citizen in the audience. Can someone who was there comment on that?

Was the mayor still at the meeting, or was he on his way to the Y-Knot already?

He was planning his next 6:00 PM Council Meeting!!!

I would like for Harold to explain that maneuver to the Citizens. Why is it that this hurry up…last minute meeting was scheduled for 6:00 and not the normal 7:00 as all other meetings?

Will the next meeting where "mud cat" (screen name) claims that Judi-ann is going to apologize be scheduled for 6:00 or will it be a t 5:00?

How stupid does Harold take us for…scheduling a meeting to ram his agenda through when most people couldn’t get home in time to attend his newly schedule meeting time!

Rudeness is not a reason for a recall election - obviously if you have attended any city council meetings.

How about you (SandiSue) and others who complain constantly running for office next time? Judi and Stuart are up and you could go after either one. Go for it.

You were correct with your title. Dump Judi
How do you know I or someone close to me has not run for office? Hmm... look through the records.
Anyhow, don't worry anyone who runs and has any experience or is not support by Direct Pac will be run into the ground. We all know who Direct Pac represents at least I hope we are all being educated. We also know you all do not want experience in council. Oh no they may know the ropes and not be pushed around. Oh and by the way I am still waiting for Direct Pac to claim in kind contributions. Still have not seen that accounted for. Look at most state, federal campaigns and Pacs and you will see in kind contributions all over the place. Yes a hosted house party or a cook out is an in kind contribution. Why did Direct Pac not report theirs? I know a lot of you bloggers are or were in Direct Pac.
Please stop trying to fool us all with your excuses for those elected officials supported by Direct Pac as was Judi. Oh and yes we will remember at election time.

You are right, just have to find someone that is willing to give up cocktail hour to attend city council meetings. O yea I forgot, some did not do that after being elected.

Tennant did seem under the influence of something, but can't remember any others. Do you?

Of course you are correct - Peachtree City people giving up anything (cocktails, trips, cars, dogs, TV, big houses) to serve on city council is a real stretch.

Dan Tennant and Harold Logsdon are probably the only two politicans who would accept a bottle of cheap wine in lieu of currency for payment. Harold is probably responsible for 40 percent of the Y-Knot's revenue. They both probably work better with a little sauce in them.

...talk about their mothers, too.

The Internet has lamentably allowed "experts" like you and me to throw our barbs from the safety of our Dells and Gateways instead of actually having the guts to say things to someone's face.

Remember, kids - if you don't like what someone says or does, call them:

1. A drunk
2. A child molestor
3. A liar
4. A cheat
5. A thief

Don't worry about substantiating it. If you say it enough, it will magically become true.

Cal - maybe you should tell everybody to settle down? Or is this all okay with you too?
