Perdue Coming to Decatur Tomorrow! – Kinda Sorta
Decatur Metro | April 27, 2009Knowing my unfulfilled desire to see Governor Sonny Perdue visit the city of Decatur, Creative Loafing’s Thomas Wheatley forwards a press release from the Governor’s Office stating that Perdue will be joining Falcon’s quarterback Matt Ryan and a bunch of other dirty birds in Decatur tomorrow to sign the Student Health and Physical Education Act.
“But is it really Decatur?” you ask.
“Of course not.” I reply.
We’re talking Greater Decatur. Specifically, Glenhaven Elementary down on Austin Drive in 30032.
But hey, he’ll be close! Perhaps Sonny will want to swing by for a little lunch on his way back to the capitol. Trust me, we’re not as mean and/or share-the-wealthish as we sound in an internet forum. We can talk about family values! Decaturites can’t get enough of that crap! We even take the time out of our self-mandated busy days to bike our kids to school! How freakin’ crazy is that?!












Why don’t we talk to him about that cut in Medicare that left 3000 medically fragile Georgians at risk of eviction from their nursing homes? I believe the anticipated savings for the state was about $2 million. I have always wanted to thank him for that valuable savings to the state.
I’ll be sure to wave as his motorcade passes through my neck of the – oh wait, he’s coming from downtown, isn’t he?
