  1. Local news stations are reporting 3hr waits in Atlanta and Decatur .
  2. Kemp's a crook but the best thing about Abrams winning will be watching all the Republicans heads explode. Heard on the news today early voting has almost doubled over past gov elections.
  3. There is massive floating garbage dump that is floating out on the Pacific ocean ( Twice the size of Texas) It's nice to see someone is finally attempting to do something about it, and it's being done by a 24 year old entrepreneur. It's a start. The project, known as System 001, will begin its test launch off the coast of San Francisco. The Ocean Cleanup estimates it can remove 50% of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch in five years. http://fortune.com/2018/09/08/ocean-cleanup-plastics/
  4. I'm sorry SW if my title offended you, it wasn't meant to offend anyone just a poor attempt at humor., it's an important subject though one that deserves discussion but maybe too sensitive a topic to joke about. I think everyone is concerned about the environment it's just the approach to dealing with it that has us all so divided.
  5. To be fair if you can call yourself a bipartisan independent thinker I can see no reason why Elizabeth Warren can't claim to be a native american.
  6. If dirty air, toxic water and horrific weather events does not concern your average card carrying Republican what could possibly make them care about the planet ? Trouble brewing: climate change to cause 'dramatic' beer shortages Extreme weather damage to the global barley crop will mean price spikes and supply problems, according to new research https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/oct/15/climate-change-to-cause-dramatic-beer-shortages-extreme-weather-price
  7. This should put a burr in your monday morning saddle. As more Americans take advantage of genetic testing to pinpoint the makeup of their DNA, the technology is coming head to head with the country’s deep-rooted obsession with race and racial myths. This is perhaps no more true than for the growing number of self-identified European Americans who learn they are actually part African. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/social-issues/they-considered-themselves-white-but-dna-tests-told-a-more-complex-story/2018/02/06/16215d1a-e181-11e7-8679-a9728984779c_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_
  8. It's a very tight race.For a Democrat,a black woman democrat, Stacey Abrams is running a shockingly competitive campaign So it is a big deal,a very big deal.
  9. Pulling the race card GD, stirring the pot again GD ? I didn't say anything about racism. What we are are talking about here is one parties effort to rig an election in their favor, The fact that people of color happen to be the ones Republicans are fighting to keep from voting is just a fact. If people of color had a history of voting for them I have no doubt they would be fighting tooth and nail to get them to the polls. Is this right ? Of course not, is this how we elect a government that represents the people of GA , Will the Republicans get away with it ? Probably for now, but eve
  10. They thought they were registered until some computer algorithm warned the republicans they might vote against them.
  11. Still denying reality with the "fake news" deflection....as usual.
  12. Kemp wants to inrich insurance companies, bankruptcy lawyers and in the end throw some business at funeral homes. Maybe Abrams is on to something. https://www.benefitspro.com/2018/03/01/aca-more-popular-than-ever-new-poll-shows/?slreturn=20180914170545 https://www.cnbc.com/2018/08/28/most-americans-now-support-medicare-for-all-and-free-college-tuition.html
  13. The cost of healthcare was out of control long before Obama and the ACA, I think trying to recover from a life threatening disease while at the same time having to fight bill collectors from taking your home is bad.
  14. Kemps idea of affordable healthcare is junk policies that leaves the sick holding the bag.
  15. Kemp wants to restore preconditions so insurance companies can deny healthcare for millions of Georgians , gotten rich cheating farmers and investors out of millions of dollars and allowed big donor convicted sex offenders to to keep their business licenses. If opposing that is radical then sign me up.
  16. I'm not the one that's going nuts over an off the cuff comment taken out of content by Stacy Abrams. I'll leave making mountains out of mole hills to the GOP. This brewhaha is nothing more than an attempt to fire up the base,
  17. As long as the Republicans maintain their gerrymandered districts, purge their opposition from voter registration rolls and shut down their competitions polling places they don't have much to worry about.
  18. It appears the debate over commercial flight out of Silver Comet field is over. Gov. Deal announces plans for aviation academy at Paulding airportGov. Nathan Deal unveiled plans on Friday for a $35 million aviation academy to train aircraft mechanics at the Paulding County airport, a plan that could effectively block efforts to commercialize a second airport in metro Atlanta. https://www.ajc.com/business/gov-deal-announces-plans-for-aviation-academy-paulding-airport/55ADDfvafD2AObS5mpAL1L/
  19. Your article is dated back in 1017 it is irrelevant to this conversation. My guess you live in the kind of county Georgia's Republican dominated government wants to preserve and protect. The answer to your question lies in the groups of people whose right to vote is under attack. Blacks represent about 32% of Georgia's registered voters, yet of all the votes on hold 70% are black voters. Just an unfortunate ​coincidence I suppose.
  20. If you can't win honestly gerrymander, if that's not enough shut down the polling places and erase the voter registration roll.
