King Roy has been quite busy

building one empire after another, such as the Georgia Regional Transportation

Authority (GRTA). These groups control billions of dollars of taxpayer

money, but were appointed, and answer only to King Roy.

first month, all the original members of GRTA, except one, had violated

the law. King Roy did nothing.

The northern arc is yet another

political nightmare. Too many politicians just happen to own land near

the proposed arc. The arc will do nothing to alleviate traffic problems

in the Atlanta area, but will do great things for the bank accounts of

a few.

King Roy is attempting to buy

the governor's chair again. My vote goes to Linda Schrenko. Can we trust

Ms. Cox with the education of Georgia's school children? I don't think

so.

Finally, this description of

politicians came across my computer (author is unknown):

"Only in America ... do

we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well. 'Poli' in

Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'blood sucking creatures.'"
