The Georgia video connection between Mitt Romney and Chip Rogers

Mitt Romney and Chip Rogers have something in common.

Both politicians — one an unsuccessful presidential nominee, the other an undone state Senate majority leader — have been stung by lengthy, Internet-posted video clips of scenes you were never meant to see.

Their connection is more than coincidence. Both videos were the work products of a small coterie of young, tech-savvy Georgia Democrats out to change the way this state does politics.

By now, you know that James Earl Carter IV, grandson of the former president, helped bring to light that secret iPhone recording of Romney at a high-end Florida dinner party where the candidate declared that 47 percent of American voters were bought and paid for with federal government checks.

What you probably don’t know is that, weeks later, Carter served as a consultant to the progressive group known as Better Georgia for another project: The insertion of a camera into an October seminar at the state Capitol, arranged by Rogers, on the alleged United Nations conspiracy known as Agenda 21.

As it turned out, this was as simple as walking through the door.

Better Georgia volunteer Seth Clark set up his camera in the open. For 52 minutes, until he was tossed out by staffers, Clark recorded Rogers and several other GOP state senators as they were told that rezoning, efforts to limit suburban sprawl and regional coordination are all part of a secret effort to deprive Americans of their property rights.

Agenda 21 Full Video from Bryan Long on Vimeo.

“Our own governments are doing this. Our own local city councils and county commissions — they’re doing this,” said discussion leader Field Searcy, an ousted member of the Georgia Tea Party.

Searcy declared Agenda 21 has been pushed through a form of brainwashing called “the Delphi technique,” with the goal of leading “a targeted group of people to a pre-determined outcome.”

Rogers won re-election on Nov. 6. The Agenda 21 video was posted Monday by Better Georgia. Three days later, Rogers abandoned his bid to hold onto his position as majority leader of the Republican caucus.

The Cherokee County lawmaker’s problems ran far deeper than any video, but surely he wasn’t helped by the nationwide head-shaking the clip produced. (In his local paper, Rogers said he was merely helping out a group of constituents.)

If Democrats are a vanquished army, then Better Georgia and its associates are the guerrilla force that has been left behind to harass Republicans — operating out of a Midtown Atlanta office and beyond the reach of what’s left of the state Democratic Party.

“I don’t talk to the Democratic Party. I don’t talk to (Democratic Chairman) Mike Berlon. There’s no coordination. Like none. Zero,” said Bryan Long, Better Georgia’s executive director. Full disclosure: A dozen years ago, when Long was an Atlanta Journal-Constitution reporter, I was — very briefly — his supervisor at our Cobb County bureau.

For the past year, Long and one other paid staffer, Political Director Don Weigel, have been supported financially by about 500 donors. A few are Republicans, Long said, but Better Georgia’s most prominent supporter is former Democratic Gov. Roy Barnes.

The group is patterned after similar rear-guard actions in Colorado and Wisconsin. “It’s essentially a year-round political campaign. We don’t stop the day after the election,” Long said. An emphasis is placed on technology, social media and research.

“We’re modernizing politics in Georgia. A lot of people who are in politics right now are using Old World political techniques,” Long said. His group has placed an emphasis on recording Republican public officials as they speak their private minds.

The aggressive tactic may make many of you uncomfortable. Long said it is essential if voters are to realize that many Republican elected officials have “values that most Georgians don’t believe and don’t accept.”

While videos are flashy, Better Georgia also opposed the constitutional amendment on charter schools that passed this month. On Election Day, Better Georgia produced an email from state Rep. Tommy Benton of Jefferson, a member of the House Republican leadership, who told a constituent that ballot wording for the measure was “kept vague” so that “it will more easily pass.”

Most everyone knows that nothing on the Internet really goes away. But it helps to know where and how it might be buried. “Really, it’s the same skills that were used by researchers before the Internet. You have to have lots of patience and know where to look,” said James Carter, whose cousin Jason Carter is a Democratic state senator from Decatur.

“I grew up as computers were growing up. I played computer games as a kid, and my computer was never quite good enough for the games that I wanted,” James Carter said. “When the Internet came along, that was the natural next step.”

But not everything can be found on the Internet. Last month, Carter tracked down a cassette tape recording of a 30-year-old interview of Lee Atwater, the legendary South Carolina strategist whose bare-knuckled but cagey tactics helped win the South for Republicans.

On the tape, Atwater bluntly explains how messaging to white Southerners had shifted from racial epithets in the 1950s to coded “abstractions” of the 1980s.

Both Atwater and the interviewer, political scientist Alexander Lamis, are long dead. Carter obtained the audio from Lamis’ widow and turned it over to The Nation, a liberal magazine, which posted it — one day after the Agenda 21 video hit.

It may be time for Republicans to be more careful about what they say, and to whom.

Agenda 21 Goobers Mind Controlled!

I’m not sure the analogy here of calling citizens engaged for better government a “guerrilla force” is appropriate. More appropriate is calling the GOP-Tea Party shills that have taken over the state “Gorillas” but perhaps that is an unfair comparison for the primates, as Yerkes researchers over at Emory can attest.

These GOP-TP missing links have evolved slightly beyond the fundamental evolutionary drives of more sex and more food, but not by much. These grifters have added money, power, and TV screen time, re-election, and lobbyist’s attentions, to their motivations.

Working for Georgians is not part of the GOP Deal mindset, except for the 1%, or the corporate handlers that run the GOP. It’s long overdue that we all take a little time to look under the rugs of everything Deal, Gambling Chip, and all their ilk do, say, and where they go. Just how much golf did we pay for with the GOP meeting at Little Ocmulgee State Park the other day, and how many taxpayer funded aircraft blew money getting these gold ol’ [white] boys down there.? Did they all pay the $5 park pass they make us pay?

This loyal-to-Georgia Cracker will be sending some green to Better Georgia before these Tea PArty GOP parasites coagulate into something even more toxic for our state. Better government needs aggressive watchdogs, and the old guard press ain’t getting the job done–too many apps with 140 character fluff pieces, not real reportage like Better Georgia has done–this is national news that these nut jobs are suffering mind control! Thanks to Mr. Galloway for letting us know about this–score another one for real journalism.

If backing all African Americans and making sure they all got a fair shake in society was the real goal of these “leadership of the black community” then people like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and Rev Lowery would be down in south Florida right now marching in the streets for a true and accurate re count for Allan West.

And if you had any type of intellectual honesty then you would say that what is happening now with the Democratic party with all the wealth envy and social justice movement is exactly what happened in Russia and China prior to the communist taking over the countries. BTW: True look at history will show that the communist killed way more of its citizens then Germany ever thought of killing.

Surely the people of Cherokee County have more judgement than to keep re-electing Rogers to office, especially since he had a reasonable, viable Republican candidate running against him this time.
Our state is in a whole lot of trouble, and we will pay the price when businesses and corporations stop wanting to locate here and even start leaving because of our extreme right wing politicians. Where is the state Chamber of Commerce? They should take a stand against some of these idiots. After all, the Chamber is a big part of the GOP base and has some influence.

The moochers of society (Democrats) will either have to stay and work or go to moocher states to get more entitlements. The more moochers that leave the less the tax burden and the more corporations will move here.

What did Republicans really lose? Republicans maintain control of the HOR’s. Republicans now have control of 30 governors (first time ever) and have total control of both chambers in 30 state and partial control in another 6 states. Districts have been gerrymandered in such a way that the Republicans will not lose control in the next ten years and the current Representatives know that if they give into Obama and his socialist agenda then they will have primary opposition in two years.

In 2014, there will be 7 Senators running for re election in states where Romney won and there will be zero Republicans running for re election in states that Obama won.

In the meantime, a Democrat will be President during a double dip recession and he will not be able to blame Bush this time.

The only negative is if one of the 5 SCOTUS justices happens to die during the next four years.

Of coarse conservatives have to reach out. Until an African American ran for the White House they were starting to vote more and more for Republicans ( I think it was 11% in the 2004 election for Bush and Deal received 12% in 2010 in Georgia). The more you libs keep up your campaign against religion then Hispanics will start to come around as well but Republicans need to do a better job of going into the communities and pointing out this fact.

Remember if it was not for white voters then the dems would not hold any power at all (see Georgia and most of the south for examples).

You must be young and dumb. Human nature is for a person to get more conservative the older they get. When the people like Rush die then there will be younger people like Michele Malkin and others to take his place. As the younger people get older then they will have children to protect, possessions to make sure they retain their value and retirement to think about and as a result the majority of each generation turns more and more conservative the older they get.

Go back to worshiping your crooks and leave the serious debates to the adults.

FYI: http://definitions.uslegal.com/b/bank-fraud/

Bank fraud is the criminal offense of knowingly executing or attempting to execute a scheme or artifice to defraud a financial institution or to obtain property owned by or under the control of a financial institution by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises.

It is to be noted that 18 USCS, § 1344 deals with bank fraud, stating:

Whoever knowingly executes, or attempts to execute, a scheme or artifice

(1) to defraud a financial institution; or

(2) to obtain any of the moneys, funds, credits, assets, securities, or other property owned by, or under the custody or control of, a financial institution, by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises;

shall be fined not more than $1,000,000 or imprisoned not more than 30 years, or both

Hence it is only a crime (fraud is considered a crime) when you are indicted and convicted.

“And to your logic, a man who commits murder but remains un-indicted, is not a murderer?”

Murder is a legal definition and there can not be a murder until there is an indictment and a conviction. You leftest have already convicted the guy in Florida of murder but he will more then likely not be convicted due to self defense. Will you continue to call it murder when a judge or jury says it is not?

“Let me help you a little. First you have had to get an education (preferably a law degree) ”

Graves does not hold a law degree.
He holds a BA in Finance from UGA

And in 2011, only 82% of GA’s legislators had a college degree, so obviously that is not a requirement.

Not sure what section 8 and welfare have to do with anything other than your general nastiness as a person.

Now I know my remark was a bit snarky, but it was germane and it had the advantage of having just a bit of truth to it, given that the bank chairman, Morgan Akin, admitted they made the loan because “”They were well-respected members of the community, and we took that into account,” and he never imagined such prominent political figures would default”

Malum in se (plural mala in se) is a Latin phrase meaning wrong or evil in itself. The phrase is used to refer to conduct assessed as sinful or inherently wrong by nature, independent of regulations governing the conduct

That may have worked for frontier justice but alas our system of law is not based on what you feel but rather what you can prove.

At the center of our system of law is: Ei incumbit probatio qui dicit, non qui negat. Without due process there is no crime and term like fraud, murder or rape can not be used to describe a situation.

“Ei incumbit probatio qui dicit, non qui negat” speaks to the burden of proof lying with the prosecutors.
Or more commonly known as presumption of innocence for the accused.

It has zilch to do with whether a crime has occurred or not.

In fact our system of justice requires that there be a determination that a crime has occurred, that there is sufficient evidence that a suspect or suspects committed the crime before they can be brought to trial.

Real History:

The word gerrymander (originally written Gerry-mander) was used for the first time in the Boston Gazette on March 26, 1812. The word was created in reaction to a redrawing of Massachusetts state senate election districts under the then-governor Elbridge Gerry (pronounced /ˈɡɛri/; 1744–1814). In 1812, Governor Gerry signed a bill that redistricted Massachusetts to benefit his Democratic-Republican Party…

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=The+Assassination+of+Spiro+Agnew

Its unwilling, part-Mexican Mormon assassin dramatizes the Mormon superiority complex, manifesting it as racism, sexism, jingoism and an anti-federal government temperament. His research in the new library reveals ominous similarities between Islam and Mormonism. The spiritual power behind the cult, which is not the Holy Ghost, acts out.

“With a clarity of language and vision unsurpassed in contemporary American prose, Steven Janiszewski’s Assassination of Spiro Agnew takes us into a U.S. mazed with madness and Mormonism and all things Utah, a U.S. that was then and still is. Readers, welcome to a masterpiece.”

td, your Christian Academy or Home Schooled education is showning. They are “golf courses”, not “golf coarses” that you are looking forward to seeing President Obama on. To help you understand the difference “the corn cob the GOP will be using is coarse” and “Democrats want a course that includes all Americans.”

I can only hope the OnePartyState continues this sort of childish and ignorant behavior until it reaches the point where the voters they depend upon finally realize they have been duped.

The function of government is NOT to maintain a reverence for failed policies of the past.

“It may be time for Republicans to be more careful about what they say, and to whom.”

There’s so much wrong with that statement even I don’t know where to begin.

Until we have an alternative to the GOP AND the DEMS, this is the kind of garbage we’re going to have to deal with. Both parties are full of crap, and could care less about anyone else other than their “contributors”, personal friends, and family. The past 2 elections, both my US and State congressmen have had NO one running against them. What choice do you have, when there IS NO CHOICE?

The Affordable Healthcare Act has everything to do with making more money for INSURANCE companies and has nothing to do with “affordable”. You’re a moron if you think otherwise.

The ONLY people considering it “affordable” are those who will not have to pay for it.
