G-RAMP Justifications Are Lies

With regards to G-RAMP, no, dissent is not allowed.  Retired Maj. Gen. Rick Goddard made that perfectly clear when he said that the community needed to have a "common voice" with regards to the boondoggle and Mayor Chuckie Shaheen made it perfectly clear when he came after me for criticizing the boondoggle.  We are all supposed to roll over and play dead and act like lemmings with regards to G-RAMP and just pretend that what they are telling us is true even though we know that it is not.  The two major justifications, jobs and BRAC-proofing Robins AFB, have both been proven to not be valid justifications for spending $35-$90 million on this waste of a project.  Maj. Gen. Polly Peyer was the one who said in January that "Robins cannot guarantee work for the G-RAMP site nor can they direct contractors to use the complex should it be built."  She said, in the same interview, that it is not a way to BRAC-proof Robins.  Goddard even stressed this week that "G-RAMP should never be mentioned in the same discussion with any future [BRAC] action."  So the top two justifications for G-RAMP are bogus, but we're supposed to pretend that G-RAMP is going to be Middle Georgia's Savior.  No thanks.

 

Keep calling your representatives.  Georgia lawmakers could be the difference in whether or not ObamaCare passes.

 

The poll on Chuckie Shaheen's new nickname expires tonight at midnight.  I'll announce in tomorrow's YouTube video what the new nickname will be.

 

Due to work constraints, the video will come late tomorrow night.  I'll post on Twitter and Facebook when it is up.

 

Don't forget you can listen to tonight's and every night's show after the fact by going to my page on BlogTalkRadio (link at right) or by using the widget at the top right of the page.

I guess Mayor Shaheen is also known as Anonymous.

I am surprised the Honorable Moron of Warner Robins knows how to use a computer.

What do you care? You live in Macon anyway. I think Warner Robins folks know more about what we want and need in our community than someone who pretended to be from Warner Robins, but really lived in Macon and lied.
