Mayor's Note to Sonny In the AJC

September 2, 2008

Carl points out that Mayor Bill Floyd’s recent comments on his blog regarding the Governor’s scapegoat tactics dealing with cutting the Homestead Tax Relief Grant have made it into the AJC.  (I’m guessing he posted and submitted to the AJC at the same time, but the AJC is just getting around to it?)

With all the exposure its gotten, here, on Peach Pundit (thanks to Decaturguy) and at the AJC, I’ve gotta think that Sonny’s read it by now.  So, then why hasn’t he RSVPed to our open forum yet?!  I need closure!

And no “Will not attend due to political suicide” is not a checkbox option.

    WTG Bill! There is an incredible disconnect between state and local government, and I’m glad he pointed it out. Although the GOP seems to want to squeeze government to death, I don’t think this necessarily a Dem and Repub thing either. The state reps and senators from DeKalb don’t have a clue of what state policies would be helpful to local gov. Most of the state reps seem to be jealous of the county and city elected officials – they can actually make something happen! How about some cooperation for a change.
