GET A GRIP...PLEASE! Another poster said it PERFECT... "This group no longer wants answers. They already have them. They just don't like the answers or the facts." Check your post BEFORE you post and remove all the brackets...They are NOT working right now...

NO! NO! NO! For ONCE tell the TRUTH K.V. Steven Lang came on here and OFFERED to put together a meeting JUST LIKE YOU DESCRIBE with one exception, that you and the rest of THE STOP ALL PROGRESS IN PAULDING group couldn't live with...He was going to do it at a NEUTRAL site (not in a church where ya'll have even got the pastor praying to GOD to bring down the Airport! He was also going to MODERATE it like a NORMAL open style forum with questions and answers...this is NOT what your group wants. They want David,Blake and others on a stage with a microphone passed among the audience so y

A better word to use is what the STOP ALL PROGRESS IN PAULDING group is: CONFUSED...which means: unable to think clearly; bewildered. "They were utterly confused about what had just happened"...and the synonyms apply even more to this group and its thinking: bewildered, muddled, addled, befuddled, disoriented, & disorientated! GET A GRIP...PLEASE! Another poster said it PERFECT... ""This group no longer wants answers. They already have them. They just don't like the answers or the facts."

Congratulations! You just made as good a statement on here as has been said to date... "This group no longer wants answers. They already have them. They just don't like the answers or the facts." "This group no longer wants answers. They already have them. They just don't like the answers or the facts." "This group no longer wants answers. They already have them. They just don't like the answers or the facts." I repeated this several times so it will sink in!!! THIS IS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM!!! The airport is ALREADY there, it is NOT going anywhere and THE STOP ALL PROGRE

The ONLY "Collusion" is that many of the AA board members also sit on the IBA board and that David Austin sits on both as well as being our BOC Chairman. This is the STOP ALL PROGRESS IN PAULDING'S definition of Collusion!!!

Well you missed a LOT...You missed finding out that the IBA and the AA had many of the same members and that David Austin was not only on all three BUT is also our BOC Chairman...Oh yeah, they also told us that David has a brother who is Mayor of Dallas! You missed hearing that Todd was NOT invited to a 2 day meeting in Douglasville at the Douglasville conference / meeting facility (because this same STOP ALL PROGRESS IN PAULDING GROUP is also against Paulding having such a facility)and later hearing Todd SAY if he had been there he would have ran back and told everyone what was discussed.

Keep drinking the Kool-Aid...Keep drinking the Kool-Aid!

I guess if that's the case I should switch sides as you are describing yourself and THE STOP ALL PROGRESS IN PAULDING GROUP to a tee! Actually I am only trying to make you folks see how SILLY you sound to the OTHER 150,000+ Paulding County residents! Must be doing pretty good...sure lit a fire under you and K.V.

Actually I am out there daily meeting folks as I go about my daily business, talking about the Airport and other things related to Paulding County. I have been "face to face" with you, Patti, Pubby, the drama queen, the AJC gal, the Channel 46 guy, the neighbor news guy, & the Channel 2 guy. I also spoke with the DELTA pilot and the union rep at two different meetings. I visit with all the commissioners...including TODD...as well as Mayor's Boyd and Doris. You see I have got a VERY good grasp of EXACTLY where most folks are with this matter. Now if this hasn't narrowed down yet f

Don't read too much into this "tearing the county apart" as once you get past the STOP ALL PROGRESS IN PAULDING group of at best the 20(+-), who show up at the meetings in their blue shirts and past Ms. Patti's website you really don't have an issue. If you go to a high traffic area say around Target in Hiram or up on Cedarcrest at a strip center...better than 1/2 the folks you talk with DON'T even know we have an airport much less an issue with it. Ask the question as follows...If you had a choice of driving to Hartsfield / Jackson to fly to a vacation destination such as Biloxi, Myrtle

First how do you know I am a "SHE"...you been "peeking"... CPR is not going to be "baited" into a meeting just so you can find out who I am...I would lose my inside info from both sides if I did that and for now I like hearing both sides takes... You have a neutral person who has volunteered several times Steven Lang, and based on his qualifications he posted he seems very knowledgeable.

STOP trying to scare folks...The Yorkville area is no more "in the cross hairs" of ANYTHING...No more than us who live here in East Paulding are from DOBBINS!

You are absolutely right and I am sure David and the other commissioners (with the obvious exception of Todd) look at Patti EXACTLY like that!

Simply watch the BOC video and her 5 minute RANT...SHE was an embarrassment to Paulding County the way she acted, and did nothing but promote her website and attack our commissioners! AGAIN!...SHAME ON HER!!! If I was on the board she would NEVER receive another second of podium time! and there most definitely is a STOP ALL PROGRESS IN PAULDING group...it's holding a meeting tonight!

How do you know I HAVEN'T been attending them?????

Last only an hour and a half...LOL! PATTI & K.V. will march around and wave there hands while PONTICICATING that long! and HEAVEN forbid if a camera is there, if one is DO NOT get between them and it or you will get hurt!!!

Of course there has to be compromise BUT the STOP ALL PROGRESS in PAULDING group is not willing to listen to anything except NO COMMERCIAL flights! Since this is NOT going to happen and everyone except this handful knows it the Airport keeps doing it's thing, the FAA keeps moving quickly towards fast-tracking the approval and Paulding will get it's NEW Silver Comet Field WITH commercial flights in the near future! The compromise has to be...what can be done to satisfy Patti Smith that makes sense for BOTH her and the County. Until she quits threatening, posturing, and playing to the me

Hope they don't need to FLY into Paulding to look at sites...or sure hope they don't attend an AA or BOC meeting and see the STOP ALL PROGRESS GROUP in action! You would see NOTHING but positive news about PAULDING if your STOP ALL PROGRESS IN PAULDING group would SHUT UP!!!

David and his administration have had to deal with MANY issues left to him by the previous Commissioner...Jerry Shearin is the one we should all be EMBARRASSED by...The Airport is only on of many matters they have had to deal with, fix, clean up after...however you want to term it.

No, if watch the ENTIRE video at the 38:45 mark it becomes the Patti Smith show and she proceeds to make it nothing more than a vicious rant and attack against our elected officials. She is doing nothing more than self promoting both herself and her website. She is a true EMBARRASSMENT!

The term "red herring" is used to refer to something that misleads or distracts from the relevant or important issue. It may be used to detract or lead readers towards a false conclusion. Then my comment is exactly that...It was concise, and to the point. No false conclusion at all though...EITHER SHUT UP OR MOVE!!! Pretty well to the point I think!

We actually agree on several things then...Yes, of course it is a personal issue for her BUT again the Airport is already there and is not going ANYWHERE...it is going to grow...and just like the parkway did a FEW folks are going to be impacted more so than the majority who are not. Instead of continuing to attack the Airport and our County officials the better course of action is to see what is going to be the BEST long term fix for her situation and move to fix that.

Ok, I have NO IDEA if this would work or not BUT she should explore having the tract of land zoned for commercial use...then that opens up HUGE possibilities. I have not looked at the viability of doing this but that does come to mind. I will say after watching her now for several meetings I DO NOT think that her intention is to move or sell but rather promote her on issues and website.

"Tundra"...I have NO problem (of course) with her or anyone expressing their opinion, speaking at the meetings, etc. BUT Patti has taken it to a new level...she is soliciting support not for her agenda (the commercialization of Silver Comet Field) but for her personal website and herself. If you are going to request time to speak at one of the meetings, in a public forum, you should professionally speak to the issue and not go on the attack as she has and did. The BOC is a board of professional business men who have made it a point in their lives to move away from their respective busin
