There is ALWAYS Time for the National Anthem
Rule 1: There is always time for the National Anthem. Every event should start with a prayer followed by either the National Anthem or the Pledge of Allegiance. Corollary 1 to Rule 1: Everyone should know the words to Star Spangled Banner’s first verse. If you don’t know the words by heart, just look below. Memorize...
Hall County Votes for Higher Property Taxes (Formerly Steve Gailey: The Only Candidate for Hall County Commission Chair)
UPDATE: All the no-tax candidates for county commission lost the election on May 24, 2016. I will post the precinct details as soon as they are available and I have time. In the meantime, next year when you get your property tax bill and it has gone up, just quietly say to yourself “Paul told...
The Other Hall County State Court Candidate Endorsed by Democrat (Not John Breakfield!)
UPDATE: John won the election handily on May 24, 2016. Congratulations to him and his family who all worked so hard during the election. As I said in the original post, I have no doubt that Judge Breakfield will make us all proud. I found a link today where a Michelle Jones is officially “endorsing”...
Moon Election Complaint Might be Resurected
I just made Eugene Moon (R-Gainesville) aware of some legal research I conducted today as amicus curiae. Eugene filed a compliant contesting the election he narrowly lost to Billy Powell on July 31, 2012. You can read my prior piece about the suit here. A visiting judge dismissed the action on Monday, September 17, 2012...

Jody’s Party of the [Slutty] People!
Well we all knew that the Democrats really know how to “get down” with all their talk about going broke buying birth control. In case there is any doubt about what the Democratic Party stands for, take a look at the buttons being worn by the Illinois delegation to the Democratic National Convention today. (Remember...
Republican Convention Better Live?
I have to admit an almost complete lack of interest in the RNC this year. No doubt like hockey, soccer and lacrosse, it is a sport you have to see in person to really “get.” Ironic that the RNC chose enemy controlled territory to hold the Convention. Another example of Republicans missing the obvious....
Nobody Said Democrats Weren’t Nice–they are Just Wrong
Having been practicing in Gainesville for a long time, I know one thing for sure: I’m a minority within a minority–a Republican lawyer. In Gainesville, almost all of the lawyers are Yellow Dog Democrats (who have to be Blue Dog Democrats because there are no more Democrats to vote for). Jody Cooley is no exception...

(R)eal (R)epublican Platform [Updated]
The Republican “platform” being developed at the National Convention in Tampa as of this writing, is a key part of what defines a candidate as a Republican. Unfortunately, many candidates and officials just don’t know the platform, or they simply don’t live it. However, many disparate groups are all there trying to get their word...
The (R)eal (R)epublican Voter Guide – Runoff 2012 [UPDATED Results]
Well in Hall County there are several races to vote on during the Runoff on August 21, 2012. These races are the 9th Georgia Congressional District, Hall County Sheriff, Hall County Commission Chairman, Hall County Probate Judge, and Hall County Tax Commissioner. Here are my voter recommendations for the Runoff 2012. [Voters decided with me...
Rumor: Hall County Commission Districts Incorrect in Primary
These allegations are in addition to the previously report issues involving voters properly listed in the right district that were simply given the wrong “ballot.” According to my sources, Brian Kemp, Georgia Secretary of State, is still investigating.
“Proud” Democrats Disrupting Republican Primaries
Look who was voting in the Republican Primary on Friday, August 17, 2012 in Gainesville (in a Prius of course)! Proof certain that Democrats will continue to interfere in Republican politics until Republicans do something about it. For an example, look what happened to State Rep Doug McKillip (R-Athens) in his recent primary state house...
