Gee Jim. I thought you were a really good GA politics reporter not a PR agency. This link-ridden post is beneath you. Kinda like that sinking ship you’re sitting on, eh? If they try to make you put on a Statue of Liberty costume and flay your arms about in front of the building over there on Marietta St.. just say “no.” It’s not that hard, trust me. Just put your lips together and scream.

Balking GOP governors remind me of freed North Korean prisoners who predictably strip off the new suit we had just given them as they walk across no man’s land toward their own lines. They strip right down to their BVD’s. This is how severely the North Koreans despise the west. This is how Republicans revere America.
The GOP acts like discreet North Koreans.
