OK Snark, name the convictions of state officials by Thurbert Baker. It’s a pretty short list.

“C’mon Bob”:

Like most of the people who spew their opinions on this page, you don’t know a damn thing about what you purport to talk about. The state attorney general only investigates allegations against state officials, and yes, Baker has put away quite a few of them (Democrat and Republican) over the last twelve years. (Read the papers much, do we, C’mon Bob?) Allegations against county officials are investigated by the county district attorney and grand jury (remember the DeKalb County DA’s investigations into Jones, do you, C’mon Bob?)

But hey, don’t let that change your opinion!

Thurbert Baker should have investigated DeKalb County Sheriff Thomas Brown, who’s home went from No. 16 on the county flood plain buyout list to No. 1 with no explanation, and no written records (?). Brown’s home was paid for and demolished in record time.

Oh yeah, I forgot, Thurbert Baker never investigated any elected official, especially one from his own county. If he did, he would have had to spend a few years just on Vernon Jones.

“Georgia, Let’s elect Max Cleland as Governor! He has proven his integrity and that is all we need, not campaign “contributors” bribing their way into profitability on the People’s dime. Max placed himself squarely in the side of Righteousness when he quit the 9/11 Commission’s cover-up of Bush’s and Cheney’s treason. There is no more important issue facing Georgia, America, and President Obama.

Let’s put Georgia back in the lead of America! Let’s make Max Cleland, a genuine American Hero, Our Governor!”

Why should anyone who votes make cleland a hero? How did he prove his integrity? I vaguely remember him as SoS, and he didn’t do anything. Are you related to max cleland? Do you have a financial interest in him becoming governor?

Dear Thurbert Baker,

Excellent job on the fundraising. Why not take that money and run for Lt. Governor or U.S. Senate?

Hey Keith… when was the last time your limbs were blown off while you were defending your country? I love conservatives… they all demand that we support our troops… unless they disagree with said troop’s politics. So typical. So hypocritical.

Poythress has been out campaigning for months, in far north Georgia, in far south Georgia… places that haven’t seen a Democrat in years.

Baker hasn’t been anywhere and from looking at his report has nothing but finance staff.

Porter has been a couple of places but from looking at his report has no staff either.

Money isn’t everything. Votes matter more.

Poythress 2010!
