I agree with Mr. Myers that

all these Republicans we have around here claim to support the party line

only to deceive us all once they get comfortable in office.

When opportunities arise to

lower our tax burden they ignore them by selling us out to big government

waste.

It is a shame that on our board

of commissioners sits Mr. Greg Dunn and Mr. Peter Pfeifer, both of whom

have strong Republican backgrounds and involvement in promoting the GOP

in Fayette County, and yet they betray us by allowing us to be portrayed

as a party of hypocrites.

But in defense of my party,

I would like to say that, if I recall it right from my days in Palmetto,

Steve Harris was actually a Democrat in South Fulton County who had graduated

from an unaccredited law school and who worked as a district attorney

in Fairburn.

He seems to have come to Fayette

County on the wave of "white flight" and quickly flipped parties

to get our conservative votes. This is probably why he is not a real Republican

and why he chose to accept that car in the first place.
