CCB is honest, a rarity on the pro-TDK side, but his logic is seriously flawed. Steve Brown brought some serious concerns in his letter to the editor.

Mudcat is flip-flopping again. He says the Direct PAC wasn’t claming a victory with Logsdon. That’s a bunch of bull. You can run Mudcat, but you can't hide.

I said this on another post, but it bears repeating here. Can you feel the desperation in the posts [below] from the Direct PAC guys Mudcat and Robert W. Morgan (Birdman elsewhere)??? You gotta love the way they are abandoning their Mayor Logsdon, still trying desperately to justify TDK, and doing everything humanly possible to get the townsfolk not to believe Steve Brown.

Robert W. Morgan says it’s hopeless and there’s nothing we can do. It appears that killing the road does, in fact, give us some control. Steve Brown’s points are very good. Not surprisingly, neither Mudcat, Birdman nor Morgan tries to counter any of his arguments.

They’re hedging now by saying Steve Brown has had some good ideas. Forget it guys, you couldn’t look objective if tried with all your might. It now appears the traffic model for the SPLOST was broken really bad. Steve Brown was right about the road being advertised as a traffic reliever being a huge lie. The only counter the Direct PAC crowd has is “build it anyway” and their famous line “roads are good” so who cares what we promised before.

Birdman rambles on about name calling … wait a minute … Birdman accusing someone of name calling?? One of the biggest trash talkers on the site, Birdman, accuses others? Yeah right. Hey, what about Doug Warner? I’d like to know why his name comes up in nearly every scandal. Many on the web site are saying that Doug Warner planted the clause in the contract without anyone knowing it. This reminds me of our dirty Congress sneaking graft into omnibus bills.

The worse of it all is Birdman lifting the DAPC guys up on his homemade pedestal. He keeps talking about the DAPC guys taking great “risks” on behalf of the city. PLEASE, Birdman, TELL US EXACTLY WHAT THOSE RISKS WERE? WE WOULD ALL LOVE TO KNOW!! THE ONE MILLION DOLLAR PAYOFF SEEMS TO HAVE PUT ALL THE RISK ON TAXPAYERS. Can wait to see your list of supposed risks.

We are getting shafted in a big way, and the developer crowd is trying to eek out a victory against the facts, traffic engineering reports and our wishes.

I happen to think Logsdon is doing exactly the right thing in fighting GRETA and their 4- lane TDK idea as I posted in detail earlier under "Use some logic, Man" as a response to Manofgreatlogic.

Another interesting aspect of Logsdon's GRETA fight came out in the (other) newspaper this morning. If PTC does not follow GRETA's reccomendations they could lose future transportation funds since GRETA controls those purse strings. Well, it seems pretty easy to me --- just ignore GRETA and build a 2-lane road or none at all if Logsdon wants to knuckle under to the anti-growth whackos. After that, no problems with growth because we would not receive any funds from the State for road improvements. What's wrong with that solution?

If I was bragging on my hubby and his accomplishments in the last election, I apologize. Direct PAC is no more, but they got rid of the childish, self-promoting, closet-Democrat, most embarassing and without a doubt, the worst mayor (so far) in the history of Peachtree City.

So certainly the city's image was improved and everyone from Westmoreland to Isakson to Seabaugh to Dunn would agree. Not that anyone actucally cares, but it sure makes the few of us who love this city feel better.

Now, here's the important part --- read carefully Steve and Kool-Aid drinkers --- Logsdon is no picnic either. He's a "let's all get along " kind of guy. Nice person, poor leader. Does that mean he is automatically wrong on all the issues? No. Does the fact that he beat Brown (like a drum) mean he is entitled to a free pass on his leadership abilities and the decisions he and others make? Hell, no!!!

He is not always wrong, nor is he always right. Who he beat and who supported him is not a relevant issue - unless you are one of those morons who thinks everyone is getting a bribe from the evil developers.

What is relevant is how he performs and what he gets accomplished. So far, not much. But maybe, just maybe he will show us something next year. Meanwhile, how about looking at what he does or does not do instead of dragging Brown's BS or the "bribing developer" crap into it? See if you can do that - start with just one day - it will get easier.
