Why isn't the turncoat Republican Governor of Georgia, Nathan Deal, getting more

[Lint Head]

flack for the debacle in Georgia over the interstate highways. It seems like the Mayor of Atlanta is the one the media is trying to nail.
Georgia could have been ready if the GOP realized that weather and climate are two different things. http://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus http://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97-per-cent/2014/jan/30/global-warming-wishful-thinking

Major cities need to gear up for any possible weather event that could bring their cities to a halt. Summers will be hotter and winters will be colder and temperatures will flip unexpectedly and unseasonably. Hurricanes will not necessarily be more often but they will be more deadly world wide. Of course, exact detailed predictions will never be attained. But when a train is coming straight at a stuck school bus full of children you generally know the result. Even if the children get of off the bus. Or. The train could stop. Or. The bus will move. Or, or or.

Our country has already pulled the national school bus onto the tracks. Now we have to be prepared for the impact or avoid it. Ignoring it would be deadly.

1. Perhaps he wanted to sit back and help cause trouble for the Dem mayor??

Mayor and his office not smart to watch the reports on their own and take action.

Seems like traffic decision screups are the big new trend to get pols in trouble.

2. One's named Nathan and one's named Kasim

Take a look at their pictures, that solved this for me. It IS Georgia.

3. Who is reporting that the Atlanta Mayor is the one to blame, the media? If so call the stations or

papers and register a complaint. You'd be surprised how effective it can be when they know people are on to their cover-ups. I'm assuming there's information or evidence to show your point. Of course, just the media's failure to acknowledge that the state and interstate highways are the state's jobs is sufficient.

5. I would think the turncoat Governor should know the term interstate highways have the suffix "state"

it it.

4. So there were no backups at all on the Perimeter?

I-285, Atlanta's version of a beltway.

Almost none of it is within Atlanta city limits.

6. The highway all the way from Mississippi thru Alabama to Atlanta had issues.

7. Now that everything is clear the turncoat Governor of GA makes a statement.

Wonder what would have happened if he had made a statement before the storm hit? Hmmmmmm. I wonder?

8. Truthfully, roads in the Atlanta city limits (arguably Reed's responsibility) weren't the problem.

Most all the cars/truck issues were in the surrounding counties -- mostly where the "white flight folks" live and are governed by white wing Republicans -- and primarily on the interstates outside the city limits which are the white wing Republican gubnor's responsibility.

Of the 4 - 5 million in Atlanta Metro area, Reed is probably only "responsible" for 500,000 folks in the city limits and a lot of them have the good sense to use MARTA.
