Which only proves that P T Barnum was right.

Mr. Dobson must have had more important things to do than make a public appearance, because both he and his BFF Whitey were no-shows. I would have thought they would have been there to celebrate their "victory" over the IBA and the AA.

Taxpayers don't "give" money to governmental agencies. It is taken from them. That's why they call it a tax instead of a tithe.

Are these districts the same as the Commission Posts, geography-wise?

Well, you have read "one" version of what is going on. Wait until old Whitey puts his "spin" on this one..... At tonight's session the Commission voted 4-1 on 3 separate measures to hire a law firm to file suit against 2 other county agencies. So, now the County will be spending untold $$$$$ to sue ourselves. SMH

When I read the thread's title, my first thought was, "well, she ain't been to a Commissioner's meeting recently."

That poses a question...... Just "what" legislation do you think we need? What new law that, if we don't have it, will throw the universe into a tailspin? The only time Americans are truly safe is when no legislature is in session.

I think that if I were ever to run a political campaign, I'd want the first picture of me to be at least somewhat presentable. Not wearing a Harley tee-shirt and in need of a shave. Shows a lot of respect for the voters. NOT.

And you think we citizens should turn the reins to a $135 Million County Budget over to some inexperienced yahoo only because he is opposed to the airport. Makes as much sense as the rest of your "reasoning".

The utter irony of all this is that none of the anti-passenger activists that are (allegedly) pro-"general aviation" have yet realized that cargo flights are not regulated by the hated 139 certificate. UPS or FedEx or DHL could, beginning tomorrow, start flying 737's full of cargo in and out of PUJ and do it 24-7-365. And it's called "free enterprise". If I recall correctly, Swafford was hired by Shearin. Who, strangely enough, now supports Leggett. So, the wannabe commission chair can't fire Swafford without making his new mentor look bad. There is a big difference betwe

So, what is the "something" we need to do? You are hungry and broke. There is a deer rifle hanging on the wall over your fireplace. Bambi is grazing on your petunias in the back yard. Oh, what to do? What to do? That I can agree with. Let's do something to make a profit and bring in some jobs.

I'm not the one that painted the kitchen hot pink and the living room chartreuse. With blue-green shag carpeting. Some things, you DO have control over. Just teasin' on ya, but you knew that.

I thought the figures were $52MM from the FAA, and $3MM from the State, and $3MM from Paulding IBA? You are absolutely right that King Jerry Shearin promised the airport wouldn't cost us a dime. Many people believe Shearin is the puppeteer that is pulling Roger Leggett's strings.

I don't think your millage rate went up. Your property taxes went up because your property values went up. You should be happy about that.

You and I are exactly on the same page. At some point, hopefully soon, the "anti's" will come to the realization that they are not going to make SCF go away. And stop with all the lies and misrepresentations. And offer some positive suggestions to capitalize on what is here already.

Don't assume that I haven't already done my research. There is an old saying about not asking a question that you don't already have the answer to.

Low, I somewhat agree with you. It is disrespectful to idiots and liars to compare them to Whitey. I am just totally aggravated that Whitey can continue to spread his nonsense and make false allegations about anybody and everybody and he isn't held accountable. This has gone on for years, ever since the school bond election back 8 or 9 years ago. If he knew 1/10th of what he "thinks" he knows, he'd be a genius. But he's going to do battle armed with half truths and a keyboard. I just got a PM from another P.Com "lurking member" who says "....I find you to be very

Where they sleep at night is irrelevant. What is important is where they do business. And every one of those board members owns or is employed by a business that is important to the Paulding economy.

Exactly what "answer" did I not understand? Oh, the one you didn't give? Twice. I'm not sure if you are an idiot or a congenital liar. (There is a strong possibility that both conditions exist.) I've never made a claim one way or the other about who did what or how much it cost. All of those allegations are coming from you. I'm telling you to put up or shut up. If I were a candidate for any office, the last support and endorsement I would ever want would be from a blabbering fanatic like you. I bet Robbie wishes you would just shut up and go away. (Like the res

I simply asked you for substantiation of the numbers you are throwing around. I can only assume from your diversionary non-answer that you don't have a clue. I asked you to substantiate the $70 million figure. Instead, you start off jabbering about some lawsuit and end up politicking for some "biker with a plan". Answer the question. Show me the math that adds up to $70 million. It should be easy for somebody that has all the facts right at their fingertips. Right, Hillary?

I want you to do the math on this $70 million asset. Show me your numbers as to what has been actually spent. Actually spent in real US dollars, not your speculation of what something could have or might cost in the future. And, while you are at it, the source of those funds. And the debt to equity ratio.

Yeah. You and Hillary Clinton. Got that "truth" thingy down pat.

I didn't know I disagreed with you or not. I would never have actively supported development of an airport, except as part of an industrial park development. The EIC (egomaniac in charge) got the cart in front of the horse, as is usual. Had there been industrial manufacturing and distribution companies locating in Paulding then the need for a field would have developed naturally. But, since the thing is sitting out there sucking our tax dollars dry, it only seems logical, to me, that we suck it up and put the thing to work and make it pay for itself. If that mean

I'm pretty sure you weren't referring to a certain grading contractor, were you? 'Cause there's NO personal agenda there, no siree. None at all. No agenda. None. And.... And when businesses sign "bad" contracts, they get cancelled. One way or the other. So, now we are sitting on the cusp of reaping the "rewards" of some ideas dreamed up by local egomaniacs. We, the voters, can continue to cut off our noses to spite our faces. Or, maybe we can get some LEADERSHIP in place that will get rid of Propeller for non-performance. And clean out a few other departments while

I have often wondered exactly what your education and career background is? You seem to be so "expert" on everything managerial, financial, legal, and political. I'm thinking, maybe, that you used to write fairytales for 3-year-olds? Because, that's your style. There's not an issue or a candidate that ever comes before the Paulding citizens that doesn't instigate an illiterate diatribe from you. Going back as far as the school bond issue in about 2007 or so. You can manage to dream up some piece of information and fabricate an elaborate web of nonsense and accuse people of wrongd
