According to a recent study published by today’s AJC, Atlanta residents contribute $289 per household per year in oil revenues to the middle east. Dan McLagan, spokesman for Sonny Perdue responded:
The world is filled with loony lefty organizations that want everybody to live in Tokyo-style high-rises and walk to work in their Birkenstocks.
His statement is a great demonstration of the extent to which our governor is out of touch with Georgia residents. It’s easier for his staff to act like juvenile politicians than deal with real issues and needs like they were hired to do.
Wow. Just, wow.
Cathy Cox, I hope your people are paying attention to this.

Wow. I guess “Atlanta is full of loony righty politicians that want everybody to live in suburbian McHouses and drive 90 minutes to work every day alone in their 7-passenger vehicle” doesn’t have the same ring to it.

I don’t know, Garrett… I think that has a great ring to it. Let’s start circulating it around the blogosphere. I’m tempted to include it in a letter to good ol’ Sonny.
