Atlanta blogs today: Gov. Isakson?

Posted by Andisheh Nouraee on Wed, Oct 3, 2007 at 4:30 PM

... Heath Garrett has left Johnny Isakson’s office for a consulting firm. I’m in D.C. and *every* single person has said Heath is headed off to set up shop for Isakson ‘10, the Gubernatorial run.

— Erick at Peach Pundit on speculation that Sen. Johnny Isakson will run for governor in 2010

how can anybody use THE HOLOCAUST as a vehicle to make a point about mexican chicken farmers? ...

— The Arc of Time on AJC.com comments comparing an accused Lawrenceville Nazi with Latin Americans working in the U.S. illegally

I've often wondered if it would be an interesting social project to create a kind of kink think tank a la the above groups. The kinky version would judge all vanilla people by the ones who commit immoral acts. Following the formulae so cynically employed in the CWA and the CL's own political propaganda, it would earnestly point out that engaging in missionary position fucking obviously can turn vanillas into sociopaths....

— Dr. Gloria Brame at Inside the Mind of Gloria Brame imagines what would happen if people with conventional sex lives were slandered the same way people with unconventional sex lives regularly are.

Incidentally, the CL she refers to above is the Catholic League.

Hate to alarm everyone, but if Isakson runs for gov. would the U.S. Senate be next on the Sonny-do list? Shudder. Saxby and Sonny, making Alabama -- er, Georgia -- proud.

I don't think Gov. Perdue would run for Senate. The word is that he doesn't have a tremendous amount of patience for negotiation and process. That's all being in the Senate is. I'm thinking he's positioning himself to get a federal appointment should a Republican win the White House.
