Posted by Stacey Matthews on January 25, 2020 23 Comments

Democrat Stacey Abrams, who has spent the last year and two months telling crowds of Democratic supporters and journalists (but I repeat myself) that the 2018 Georgia gubernatorial election was stolen from her, is now telling Democrats they must move on from past elections.

Posted by Stacey Matthews on August 20, 2019 59 Comments

Police: Witness says GA State Rep was one who said “Go back where you came from!” – not man she accused

On Sunday, I wrote about Democrat state Rep. Erica Thomas walking back her statement that Cuban anti-Trump Democrat Eric Sparkes told her to "go back where she came from." Since then, she has walked back her walk back and is insisting that he did say that.

Georgia State Rep Walks Back Claim Man Told Her To “Go back to your country”

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on July 21, 2019 45 Comments

Georgia State Rep. Erica Thomas (D) claims to have been "verbally assaulted" by a white man at a Publix and told to "go back where you came from." Apparently, Thomas was in the 10 Items or Less lane, and Eric Sparkes didn't like that and commented to her about it. Thomas went on Facebook and filmed a tearful tirade about how she was berated, called names, and told to go back where she came from. She also says that he told her to "go back to your country."

Virtue Signalling Hollywood Threatens To Boycott Georgia Over Heartbeat Law

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on June 01, 2019 30 Comments

Back in 2008, Georgia enacted a series of tax and production incentives that resulted in Georgia becoming known as the "Hollywood of the South."

Alyssa Milano Advocates #SexStrike; Planned Parenthood Hardest Hit?

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on May 11, 2019 50 Comments

In the fevered mind of actress turned political activist Alyssa Milano it makes perfect sense to advocate a #SexStrike to protest Georgia's new "heart beat" law. Without any hint of irony, she claims that women "cannot risk getting pregnant" and should withhold sex "until we get bodily autonomy back."

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp Signs ‘Heartbeat’ Bill Into Law

Posted by Mary Chastain on May 07, 2019 23 Comments

I have no idea why people call this controversial because there is nothing controversial about life and science. Life begins at conception. It's science and basic biology. Republican Georgia Governor Brian Kemp signed into law the bill "Living Infants Fairness and Equality (LIFE) Act." This bill "prohibit abortions in the state after a heartbeat is detected, as early as six weeks into a pregnancy."
