Harold I spake thusly: "Leadership is about accepting challenges and presenting solutions"

Only now, several years later and with the benefit of hindsight, do we realize that in Harold Logsdon worldview, "solutions" is shorthand for "developer-friendly rezoning".

Harold Logsdon how dare you compare yourself to George Washington. You sir are not good enough to be dirt on that Great Americans shoes.

Obama's weapon of Choice!

"George Washington didn’t make excuses...."

Harold, Harold, Harold.....

Many years from now, when you shuffle off the mortal coil, people will recall these words and eulogize you as follows: "When the going got tough, Harold Logsdon didn't make excuses....he commissioned a poll!"

Where's the plan Harold? Even DAR has a plan at least. If you want my vote then at least have a plan. Raising over $30,000 and paying a consultant over $15,000 to run a campaign for mayor won't BUY my vote! I need some positions on the issues that affect my life in Peachtree City. I'm still very much undecided.

Joe,
I don't see the hatred that Cal Beverly,or you, talk about in any of the challengers' literature or public comments. Harold Logsdon's material simply points out the flaws of Brown's administration. Direct PAC has their own agenda. I have not seen nor heard anything that leads me to believe they support any one candidate. The assumption they support Harlod Logsdon has been floated by Steve Brown. I will agree there are strong feelings about this election, however I do not see "hatred" coming from any of the challengers. Yes, there is "hatred" among citizens against Brown, but as I have said before, it has been created by his own actions.
I also want to clarify what I meant in my previous reply, I said Steve Brown won the last election by pointing out flaws of the previous administration, just like his current challengers.

How can you acuse Harold Logsdon of hatred after four years of the current Mayor's antics? Name calling along with shouting matches at city council meetings, the current mayor has created his own problems with his leadership style. All I have seen out of any candidate's material are factual points that have occurred under Brown's administration. In any election, challengers are going to point out the current administration's flaws and attack them. Steve Brown did the same thing when he was elected. Now all of a sudden it's not OK to do so?

Cal Beverly is correct: the venomous hatred present in PTC politics serves no good. What good, for example, came from Bob Lenox's attempt to have Steve Brown arrested because a secretary drove his daughter to day camp? It was an all consuming hatred--- a belief that by attacking Brown, Lenox could re-invent his public image, maybe even get a "do over" on the unsuccessful referendum vote to erect the shrine to Bob. This is a phenomenon that recovering alcoholics label "projection"--- exposing the faults of others to hide their own. Unfortunately, the opposite results usually occur. It is now not fairly debatable that we witnessed what may best be termed the Lenox legacy of lawlessness. More of the same with Logsdon? Logsdon dares to compare himself to George Washington, a man who eschewed the politics and the attacks that so prominently adorn Mr. Logsdon's slick, professional mail pieces. You, sir, are no George Washington.

Even after five years out of office, Lenox still faces new revelations of questionable dealings that surface on a regular basis (i.e., the purchase of the wastewater property from developer friends). The question then becomes--- Why has Logsdon embraced this same conduct? To quell the continuing revelations? Apparently, the agenda of his well-paid political attack consultant is more important to him than George Washington's lessons in statesmanship.

Logsdon has not condemned the brand of poisonous politics that Cal warns of: he has embraced it wholeheartedly. Logsdon will be a return to old past of cloistered control and secret deals in secret meetings.

I may vote for the Pizza Boy. He may be absent but at least he has not been hateful !

Brown compares himself to Thomas Jefferson and now you're flirting with a comparison to George Washington. Next Rapson will compare himself to the master of fiscal responsibility, Alexander Hamilton and Dar will make a run at Patrick Henry. Tennant, of course, is Benedict Arnold - because he abandoned BRAWN (Brown Rapson and Weed Nucklheads).
