WHITEY

I supported David Austin,Todd Pownall, David Barnette, And Tommy Graham In their last elections. Todd Pawnall was very instrumental in getting David Austin elected four years ago. I will be voting again for David Austin this year beacause I personally feel as if he did a good job for Paulding County. All four of these gentlemen have done a good job for Paulding County, And hope they will continue to do so. I know of nothing that Heidi has done that is corrupt that some in this thread has alleged? The last of the old guard has now gone (Ragsdale Chose not to run) I want som

You got some examples, or are you just spewing off

I hit the wrong button had no intentions of voting this post up. First when the citizens first voted for this reservoir the plan was for a regional reservoir in Haralson County, if I recall correctly on the little Tallapoosa River? You do know that if the reservoir was operating today we would still be buying all of our water from CCMWA. Never has there been any plan to treat this water in Paulding County and sell this water exclusively to Paulding County residents. We pump the water from the Etowah River to our reservoir, and then pump the water back to CARTERSVILLE Treatment plant; then p

Mr.Dis I think you are wrong, I know of no Government entity that is self insured. Here is the Cobb County web site that explains all the benefits http://hr.cobbcountyga.gov/downloads/2011_WebSummary.pdf Do note that you have several carriers involved in your Health care Package Ranging from Blue Cross/ Blue Shield, Kaiser Permante for the HMO and Cigna for the dental coverage. The BC/BS even has different plans that you can choose from. All of them charge a premium to provide these benefit’s to the employees. Which is normally cost plus 10 %? For years Cobb County paid these p

I am glad that Heidi took a stand on the T SPLOST I am against this new tax. we have Billions tied up in a transporation bill that should be spent building roads bridges etc form the Federal and State Gasoline taxes. Lets use that first, Not to mention the millions being collected on the Local SPLOST just recently passed for roads here in Paulding County

The ultra right wing of the Republican Party now is faced with a big decision according to the AJC http://www.ajc.com/news/georgia-faces-tough-call-1467773.html

The post # 1 County Commission race is getting into full swing the past couple of weeks. I noticed that Heidi Leggett and a lot of her supporters have been braving the heat and doing a lot of campaigning on the streets of Hiram and Dallas. Last Friday I stopped at one of her campaign sites at the corner of Bobo and MacLand Road and was pleasantly surprised with her knowledge of the problems facing Paulding County, And some of the solutions being proposed. Here is a link to her web site if interested. http://elect.heidileggett.com/ Anyone that would brave this heat to campaign for this

Wow do you really believe this? How about the Bush tax cuts for the rich folks, It was passed the same way that Obama Care was passed

I thought the republicans had control of the House and Senate in 2003. Am I wrong?

Since you called me out in this post and others I will have to respond to your drivel. I do not believe you will see where i have made such a statement as bolded in the above post. Seems I recall a few years back where you supported the National Health care bill? I also supported the mileage rate increase imposed on the Cobb county homeowners to provide for no furlough days for you and your buds in the CCFD and the CCLEO, even though the TEA PARTY opposed any millage rate increase. Furthermore.... I still do not understand your position on the ACA.....YOU ONLY HAVE HEALTH CARE BE

Is Rommney care socialism?

Oh I thought you knew the cost,So you are just assuming something

You are on medicare are they not paying your bills? They are still paying mine

You seem to really be in the know so...... what is the cost?

Government has always taken care of me, and you They have provided me water to drink, Clean air to breathe,Roads to drive on, Arenas to see sporting events,armed forces to defend me,Schools to teach me,Police officers and firemen to protect me politicans to govern me.Airports to land on and this list is endless If Roomney should some how get elected,yes I can get along without it,does not affect me anyway, But i am quite sure that my kids and grand kids would be disappointed Maybe Rommney will get elected and replace Obama care with the Mass.version of Rommney care but wait...........

Had no problem whe George W Bush was president. Heck he even passed Part D (RX) drugs plan when he was President. As long as thr TEA PARTY is not in control I will be okay

I have been on Medicare Part B for eleven years And Part "A" for eight years. Like most Federal, State, County, City and Major Corporations this is a requirement at age 62 and 65 respectively And Medicare becomes the primary carrier and your employer paid insurance is Secondary. I have two surgeries this past year and did not see any abuse by the doctors, Hospital or the P/T that I needed. I did notice that Medicare paid a set fee for certain things that a hospital and the doctors charged for and only paid 80% of that charge, And the Hospital and Doctors wrote off the overcharges and my

The uproar over Obama Care reminds me a lot of what occured when MediCare was passed in the 60's since then the citizens have realized that medicare is really a good program and helped a lot of folks to obtain medical treatment that they would not have been able to afford.

I have been payin attention, Heck I have been affected

Yes I do

I do

Large corporations have been for years before Obama was even elected been doing away with employee Health for retirees for instance Bethelem steel and then all the other steel corporations, Lockheed, general motors,Chrysler,Ford etc. All the airlines, Most recently Delta. In addition,Most City,county,state,and federal governments have been increasing the co pays and requiring the employees to pay increasing premiums for their health care all of this was occuring well before President Obama was elected. Obama care will reduce the cost of health care in America

Don't let the door hit you were the good lord split ya BYE BYE

But......This was almost a carbon copt of the Rommney health care law passed by GOVERNOR ROMMNEY of MASS.

Just so you know Cobb County this past Tuesday passed a resolution to dump all retirees from health care coverage, Saving the tax payers the $16.000 per retiree begining 1/1/2013 Furthermore I pay for insurance coverage now, Under Obama care I will have more RX drug coverage than I presently pay for
