These stories often begin with some variation of a common refrain: “Mike Collins is once again under fire for…”  For hiring a chief of staff accused of various violent acts.  For replacing said staffer with someone caught…

This just gets worse and worse with each paragraph. How in the world can any Republican Rep stand to be in the same room with Mike Collins. :grimacing:

About the only thing he is not quoted is saying is that the Civil War was a dispute over private property rights.

Where does the GOP find these types?

Another POS bigot, masquerading as a patriot. Hope he goes down in flames. Vince Dooley’s son has zero political experience and meager qualifications for the job. Re-elect Senator Ossoff. Please.

That is not a winning strategy. Losing on all fronts. Falling for braggadocio.

It’s not working.

When I hear the likes of a Mike Collins I think that his head caught the end of Lester Maddox’s axe handle.

Donald J. Trump has achieved royal status, i.e. he is The King of the Pig People!

Cook has GA-10 as R+11, so that’s a plausible pickup opportunity this year – especially given how toxic this goober is.

If you’ve been following the ICE detention centers story, you know about Social Circle, Georgia. Small town in a very red county that’s fighting againts one of the proposed prison camps. The population of the camp would would be much, much larger than the town itself, but would depend on the town for water, sewage, and other services. The city council has passed an ordinance denying access to water they can’t possibly supply. These are Trump voters and Mike Collins’ constituents who are fighting the good fight against ICE insanity. They’ve begged Collins for help, and he has snubbed them. At this point, his own constituents despise him. Slow to wake, maybe, but waking nonetheless.

I used to fish a river in Collins’ part of the state. I found bait by going to shallow shoals and turning over rock to find hellgrammites.

We should outlaw ammosexual marriages. That, or sterilize the males as is used to be done with screw worm flies.

alas Charles Durning is no longer with us, because he would be the perfect choice for the biopic. His ability to play a complete asshole is legend.
