Meet The Georgia Governor. Watch him count the

Coca Cola, Wachovia, Bell South, Delta, and the others of the Chamber of Commerce gang
which actually supported former King Roy. Yes,

# 162 of Perdue The Liar Kennesaw
It was a great flagging in Kennesaw today. We had
nearly 25 flaggers show up plus 3 drive by supporters who parked and
came to join us. Not counting the city workers and other candidates
and staff, we had more voters there than The Liar could muster even
with his free BBQ.
We all chanted liar liar while he was at the podium
speaking more lies. It was apparent that he was getting visibly
up-set. We definitely spoiled there republican lovefest and got some
good press. Thanks to all who showed and to David Ostrom for the
photos. Also attached is an article from the AP about today's
flagging.
Flaggin' # 161 of Perdue The Liar in Toccoa
Java Station Restaurant Toccoa, GA flagging of
Lying Sonny Friday, November 3, 2006.
I arrived at the Toccoa flagging site at 10:05 p.m.
with no other flaggers present. I got my 3X5 Real GA Flag and Sonny is a
Liar sign and walked out to where the Repub supporters were. Dan Roberts
drove by and saw me and came and helped me flag which was very much
appreciated. Lum Petitt
One of the most interesting flagings I
have participated in. Got lots of positive
response from passing auto's.
There were only two of us flaggers there but it
worked out great. We were
able to protest with-in 75 feet of the speakers
and the governor during the
entire rally. Dan Roberts

Flagging Report
Saturday August 5,
2006 - Sonny Perdue Flagged at National Fairgrounds in Perry
Steve Scroggins report
Twenty-something Georgia citizens
gathered in the sweltering heat to remind Governor Perdue and the public
of Perdue's veracity impairment. Translation: SONNY LIED.
SONNY WAS FLAGGED.
The event was more of a Republican rally and networking session than
an event for Perdue only; there were many more Oxendine, Gary Black,
Kemp, Collins, Cagle and related signs than there were Perdue signs in
the area. But the Perdue signs that were there were "special"....more on
that later. As always, the reception by citizens (black, white and
other) passing by was favorable. There were many honks, waves and
thumbs up. It was a great flagging that we enjoyed despite the heat.
See the photos and more details below...
THE FLAGGING.....We assembled and set
up at the intersection nearest the entrance to North Gate of the Georgia
National Fairgrounds in Perry. For whatever reason (could it have been
the heat index over 100??), we didn't have the same number of troopers
and cars posted for our protection this year as we did in 2004.
NO MEDIA COVERAGE...
We had no media coverage this year as we did the last two years. Can't
say that I blame the reporters for just staying inside in the AC...and
pretending they didn't notice us. We had the infantry, the cavalry and
the air force on the scene, there's NO WAY they could have missed us.
Pete Giddens brought his SONNY LIED blimp to share the obvious message
(SONNY LIED) with the thousands of cars passing by during our time
there. Russ Huffman on his Moto Guzzi represented the cavalry...Bud
Cranford was there as dismounted cavalry since his bike is under repair.
Several in cars acted as our mobile cavalry keeping flags on display and
in motion around the fairgrounds perimeter. I suppose another added
benefit to staying in a car was to have an air conditioner. ???
THE PATRIOT CITIZEN CREW...
I'm sure I'll leave some names out but out of the twenty something the
North, West and Southwest Georgia folks were represented. Elijah Coleman
(Mableton) & Chase, Lum Pettit (Cleveland), Pete Giddens & Don from the
South, Jim Wood, James Bruce and his family, Ben Davis, Bud Cranford,
Russ Huffman, George Bell & girlfriend, Ralph Carson and me rounded out
the middle Georgia regulars and there were a handful whose names I can't
remember.
We didn't get a look at Perdue, he flew in on the fowlicopter, but
I'm sure he could see us as they made several circles over the area
around 1145. We saw at least three helicopters go in...but only one
landed and stayed.
THE PROPS...
Lijah brought his large SONNY LIED sign, me and Lum and several others
brought our supplies of LUV-SONNY LIED, BOOT PERDUE and SONNY IS A LIAR
signs which we posted along the roadway in the area. Lum and I brought
extra flags so we had plenty of props. Pete's 5x8 flag on the blimp
tether was visible to everyone within a half mile or more.
Someone, we have no idea who, placed some LIAR stickers on a number
of the SONNY - Georgia's Governor signs converting them into
"SONNY Georgia's LIAR" or "Sonny Georgia's LIAR Governor". Several said
that those signs AND stickers were already in place when they arrived
around 11am that morning. We all enjoyed the Third Annual SONNY LIED
Fish Fry Flaggin' so much, it's a pity (NOT) that 2006 will be the FINAL
Perdue Fish Fry Flaggin'. When he's defeated in November 2006, we'll
have to start numbering all over with the new Governor...unless, the new
governor wises up. |
Flaggin' # 156 of Perdue the Liar was on Cave Springs Rd.,
Cedartown where a dozen of us caught the Liar coming in to the mansion.
All the uppity donors eating crow with the Lying Chicken were met at the
entrance with signs, flags, chicken on a pole, and opinions on their candidate
being a Scalawag. Chase and I knew Alan Dyer and Pank, but the other
eight just joined in and looked like about 20 with the props. Is the
Liar paying for his treachery? Yes
Flaggin' # 155 Of Perdue The Liar was at the Children's
Home in Cedartown as the Taxpayers' Copter brought the Liar in at taxpayers' expense.
We figured out that The Liar only flew herebefore going a couple miles to his big political fundraiser
so that he wouldn't have to pay for his trip. The Liar's audience here was met with
Sonny Lied signs, flags, and the Perdue chicken-- spineless and fowl. Chase, Pank, Alan and
I worked this event.
FLAGGIN # 154 OF PERDUE THE LIAR:
Tim Pilgrim, Harold Porter and LUM PETITT
flagged Lying Sonny and the nest of RepubliCONS at Wild Bill"s in Duluth
Saturday, June 24.
The liar came in about 4:05 p.m. in his
campaign Fowleybus. He left about 5:20 p.m. Tim had to leave shortly
before the liar did. Harold and I left immediately after Lying Sonny.

Flaggin' # 151 of Perdue The Liar:
Sonny "The Liar" Perdue was flagged Monday morning at the
Ravinia in Atlanta by Norman Black, Lum Petitt, Harold Porter and myself, Steve
Monk. We walked onto the flagging site with our "Boot Perdue" and Ray McBerry
for Governor signs at precisely 9:45 a.m., which was none to soon, as The Liar
passed us going into the Ravinia just as we were setting foot on our spots. He
gave us his customary "Queen Elizabeth" wave and smile as he rolled past us. At
about 10:45 The Liar came out of the Ravinia and made for his getaway. We then
walked over to the traffic light at the entrance through which he had to pass
for another shot at The Liar.
Flaggin' # 150
of Perdue The Liar:
Friday afternoon, May 26,
about 5:30, a small group of patriotic
Georgia citizens
met Governor Sonny Purdue and his Republican political entourage at the
entrance to the Two-way Fishcamp and
Marina
Restaurant, South of
Darien in
McIntosh
County. The southern
patriots, faithfully continuing in their effort to remind the incumbent
and his political insiders, at every opportunity, of his broken campaign
promise to bring about a referendum vote on the
Georgia
flag, gathered with plenty of the historic 1956 flags to assure the
professional politicians that at least a small group had not forgotten
the broken promise.
The stalwart group stayed in
place on the highway until the Governor and his group, including Hinson
Moseley and Jeff Chapman, left. During their vigil, the grass roots
demonstrators had the opportunity to educate many supportive passers-by
and others, who stopped to inquire about the nature of the
demonstration. The group was able to share, not only the flag issue,
but the fact that they are tired of having a small group of political
insiders dictate to our state the numerous policies that emanate from
Washington
through the Atlanta
establishment, which seems to care little about the people of
Georgia.
Most agreed that the people
are ignored and left out of political decisions that come from
Atlanta, and they
were surprised to learn that there is a Republican challenger to “Didn’t
come through Perdue.” They learned, to their dismay, that Republican
challenger, Ray McBerry, a non-politician,
from McDonough,
Georgia, has been ignored
and, indeed, left off of any Republican information released through
established party channels. They found out that Ray
McBerry will appear on the ballot in the
Republican Primary scheduled for July 18th. One of the
group stated that “the voters of
Georgia have a
right to know the record of the incumbent, his involvement with
high-level politics, and that there is a challenger for this office.”
Flaggin' # 149 of Perdue The Liar in Macon from Steve
Scroggins:
BOOT PERDUE stickers were on every light pole in front
of the museum. I believe the man from Mableton and an accomplice did
that last summer (so a birdie alleged). The same stickers were there
when Mike and several others flagged the liar at the Sports museum back
a few months. Got your money's worth on those stickers! Nearly a year
is a very high foot-traffic area.
Anyway, Mike joined me and Russ "Muley" Huffman to
flag the liar in downtown Macon. They closed off the section of Cherry
Street in front of the Georgia Sports Hall of Fame for this shindig,
they had a bunch of media trucks, a huge inflatable football helmet (for
what purpose I still don't know--it was the local arena football
team) and several high school bands there.
The liar snuck in the opposite side but we heard the
band strike up "Hail to the Thief" or Hell to the Chief or
whatever that song is on the sidewalk. Then he went inside (after
arriving 30 minutes late). We had a good time waving at passing traffic
and talking to the kids in the bands. They were mostly black and
asking, "What did Sonny lie about?" We told them. "Oh..." They
nodded, "OK". Lot of trucks honking and thumbs up and friendly waves
from black, white and all kinds of folks. There were a number of
gawkers and folks who took our picture from a distance and one of kids
the from the band came over with his camera and wanted our photo. We
smiled big and held up our signs. Mike leaves his flag
with us and goes over with a few McBerry for governor signs and puts
them on several of the park benches outside near the door. The
policeman hassled him a little, but he pointed out that he wasn't "one
of them" when he didn't have a flag, right? Finally the officer left
him alone.
Perdue came out of the building wearing a goofy
looking ball cap and trailed by a host of cartoon characters...then
there were the people in costumes.
There was Smokey Bear, Bugs Bunny, the blood droplet (whatever his name
is), the local arena football mascots, the GEICO lizard and others.
There was a yellow looking thing...we don't know if he was Perdue
Chicken (the Augusta chicken? or the North GA chicken?), Tweety Bird,
BigBird or what. We didn't notice Wile E Coyote nor Snidely Whiplash.
As Elmer Fudd would say, "Dare wuz somethin scwewy goin' on dare."
They all trailed away from us and we really couldn't
follow them up Cherry Street without the gestapo jumping on us. I think
Perdue walked a block and half to demonstrate his commitment to fitness,
then jumped in an air conditioned car that picked him up.
We waved and greeted the folks leaving the
shindig. We'd ask them "Did you hear any big Whoppers?" "What kinda
lies was he tellin?" "Did you notice his nose growin?" All were
friendly to us, we didn't encounter any Sonny apologists or Liar-fans at
all.

There was only four of us on hand
because of the short notice. The most significant part of the event
was when R.W. Moore, "at the meeting as a news paper reporter,
working as a news reporter for (The Truth Newspaper) went inside to
record the meeting. We arrived early and he went inside and set his
vidio camera up and went to the rest room. When he came out a law
enforcement officer was waiting for him and said he had to leave the
meeting and could not record it. That was the second time this has
happened to him at Perdue's meetings. (So much for freedom of
the press.)

report Three
Georgia citizens reminded Governor Perdue and other citizens of
Perdue's failure to honor his promise for a fair flag vote.
Translation: SONNY LIED. SONNY WAS FLAGGED.
As always, the reception by citizens (black, white
and other) passing by was favorable. I spoke with all who passed by
closely. One black lady said, "You got the right sign
there!"...referring of course to my SONNY LIED sign. It was a great
flagging. |
Perdue was introduced and
made a brief speech about all his accomplishments, bla, bla, bla {gag} while
from across the street there were the sounds of "Watch Out, folks, his
lips are moving" and "I think I see his nose growing" and "Let
us vote, Governor" and "Does he have his fingers crossed?" and "Sonny
Lied". Then Perdue gave his standard acknowledgement of the flaggers
present, how this is a great country, and we should not discourage dissent
because the men in Iraq are fighting to defend Freedom of Speech, etc., etc.
I suppose we were the Elephant in the Living Room, he had to acknowledge
us....and he did a lot of acknowledging at stops all across Georgia this
week. They bill it as Perdue's "Campaign Kick-off Tour"...but it more like
Perdue's "Hell Week."

I heard all day long on the radio news that perdue
was to make 12 stops down this way to kick off his second run. I
don't know about the other 11 stops, but here in
Berrien Co. (Nashville) we kicked him off with a good
flagin. We had him himmed in from about
1800hrs to 2000hrs. Flagged him coming and a going. Very good
response from local citizens. I write this only to encourage my
fellow brothers about the state, for yall all truly help me when I
read of yall's hard work.

Flaggin # 140 of Perdue The Liar:
Sonny was flagged today in Valdosta by Larry Mercer
and I. Nearly 75 people showed up including us, spectators and
security, the band that was playing, babies that were kissed
and..........one elderly lady that said we should "go flag the
democrats". Then she proceeded to tell us how good a Governor Sonny was
and that we should leave, even threatened to "beat our brains out". She
complained to security but they seemed to usher her away without
incident. All in all we stood there holding our signs and flags and
Sonny walked in, kissed babies, spoke, then left. I'd have to say it was
a disappointing event for them. We smiled and waved and as always talked
to some good people. The best thing was as his bus pulled in the first
thing he probably saw was me holding a 3x5 56' on an 8 ft pole.
gotta love it,

Flaggin # 139 of Perdue The Liar at his Marietta BBQ
campaign kickoff was probably the worst one ever for his ego. About
40 of us angry voters probably outnumbered his crowd of supporters if you don't
count the caterers, his staff and those officials required to attend, work, or
secure. Also many people at the square simply ate the free BBQ and
told us they weren't voting for The Liar. Perdue was shouted at from
the moment he arrived until he left. This flaggin' was especially
fun, for our numbers came from Alabama, the S. Carolina Augusta area, Cleveland,
and Dalton. Gail and Tom Smith won the 8' Battleflag and Gen. Gordon
book as they came from Augusta. Below is a Steve Monk photo of about
half of our group who remained for fellowship after this flaggin'.
Join us next time. May I add that the caterer was left with a lot of
Perdue hot dogs due to his poor showing.

DESPITE GIVING AWAY free barbecue at the opening rally for Gov. Sonny Perdue's
re-election campaign on Marietta Square on Monday, he didn't draw much of a
crowd. It consisted mostly of party people, workers and politicians, along with
members of juries and county workers looking for a free lunch.
About 50 "flaggers" showed, yelling "liar, liar" to protest Perdue's
less-than-strenuous effort to put the Confederate Battle Emblem back on the
state flag. One wag recalled the famous quip by Gov. Marvin Griffin years ago
after he lost Cobb County after hosting a heavily attended barbecue at Larry
Bell Park: "A lot of folks have been eating Marvin's barbecue who didn't vote
for Marvin."
Flaggin' # 138 of Perdue The Liar was in Villa Rica at

Thanks to Billy Bearden and Jerry DeMarce.
Flaggin' # 137 of Perdue The Liar was reported as follows
from Jesup:
We flagged the liar for about 2 hours outside the
restaurant. He comes out and I yell for him to come over. We cordially
introduce ourselves. We are surrounded by flaggers and government
people. I tell him all we want is a fair flag referendum. He says you
know what we were up against (in 2003). I said if he gives us a fair
flag referendum then he will win re-election. He pauses for a second
and says he has to go without responding to my statement. He was
visibly very uncomfortable and has lost about 50 pounds. That's all
from my end. I had a very interesting day. I detest the man, but at
least I got a chance to talk to the governor of Georgia.

Flaggin' #134
of Perdue The Liar at Unicoi State
Park in Helen was to show the Republicrats that our flag issue is still
paramount. We feel that our group completed this mission to inform
those holding the caucus meeting it's a fair flag vote or Boot Perdue.
Here's a later message from those who stayed after our main party left:
Lijah,
David, the flagger from Fountain Inn, SC,
stayed with Harold and me until 2:30. We got loaded up and left about
2:50.
Rep. Tim Bearden came in about 2:00 p.m.
I talked with him for a little while. He asked how many flaggers had
been there. I told him nine. He said he appreciated what we were
doing. I told him that I appreciated what he has done and what he is
doing. He was pretty confident that Lying Sonny was there. When he
left I told him to hang tuff. He said that he was. A lot of
Legis-trators were going in and out and we got very good response. A
small group gets a lot of attention but hopefully our numbers will
increase. I believe that this
was a very worthwhile flagging
and I appreciate you fellow flaggers
helping. I know how it to drive for 3 hrs. are so
and I appreciate it. Thanks.

Flaggin' #133 of Perdue The Liar at Cartersville's Country
Club Rotary meeting:
George Perdue was flagged both going and coming from the
State Patrol station entrance by many angry lied to voters who displayed real
Georgia flags and Sonny Lied signs.
This U. S. Hwy.'s traffic was very busy and the people
going by agreed with our message.
Flaggin' #132 of Perdue The Liar in Forsyth, GA:
2:45 p.m. - Jim Wood set-up shop at the entrance of
the Georgia Public Safety Training Center (GPSTC) with a 4'x6' Georgia
state Veteran's flag and a SONNY LIED sign in hand.
2:58 p.m. - The Chicken Chopper appeared to the north
and was traveling southwest; it made a 270 degree loop counter-clockwise
over the GPSTC grounds before roosting. The final leg of the landing
had a pretty good view of me, but it was too far away for me to see if
he was waving back. Maybe my 4'x6' flag was shining bright with the sun
behind the Chicken Chopper.
Lots of friendly smiles & waves from most everyone; a
few no-reactions; one "friendly" thumbs-down (that's a thumbs-down with
a slight grin.)
Several comments were heard, such as "Got that
right!" One woman, who appeared to be a black lady, yelled, "He sure
did!" I'm not sure if she was talking about his broken promise about
the flag or something he may have just said at the GPSTC gathering.
3:56 p.m. - The Chicken Chopper took flight toward the
northeast.
Flaggin' #131 of Perdue The Liar and V.P. Cheney was at
Henderson Village:
First, let me thank Monika and Sarah for coming and
getting him at the Museum. I'm amazed that you were able to get to both
locations. I didn't think that it would be practical for any party to be at
both flaggings because only half of us who tried to flag the VP last year at
the Macon Centreplex managed to get through all the traffic and road
blocks. Way to go! And thanks again for traveling all the way from the
Georgia coast. I'm sorry we missed y'all.
Jimmy and I got caught in bumper-to-bumper traffic north of Perry on U.S.
41, so we didn't arrive at Henderson Village until about 4:25 p.m. We went
straight to the church on 41 just south of Ga 26, where we rendezvoused with
Beau Palmer (LS and SCV member) in the parking lot. As we were unfurling
our three Veterans Memorial Georgia flags and preparing to make our
approach, a Chevrolet with a Jeff Davis tag pulled into the parking lot.
Two men in suits with an earphone in one ear each stepped out and asked us
if we were there to flag the VP. We answered, "Yes, wouldn't you like to
join us?"
"No, we are Secret Service and would be fired for that, but y'all enjoy
yourselves. Just stay on the south side of Ga 26 and don't make any
aggressive-looking movements. We're just here for security reasons, and you
have your first amendment rights...." We assured them that we were there
for the VP to see us, that he would know exactly why we were flagging him,
and that we had no other intentions. Jimmy showed them two signs he had
made that had the real Georgia flag with "CHENEY HATES DIXIE" printed in big
red letters at the bottom.
So we made our way to the Ga 26/U.S. 41 intersection. While we
waited for the VP, we received the usual friendly waves and horn honks from
the vast majority of the passers-by, nearly half of whom were black.
When the VP entourage arrived, we couldn't see anyone in the limo's, but
those in the other vehicles looked surprised and highly offended. I wish
that I could offend such people every day. It was a hoot!
One flagging closer to a free Georgia! Mike Bruce
Flaggin' #130 of Perdue The Liar was at Robbins Air Force
Base and Museum was conducted by Monica and Sarah Jones.
Flaggin' #129 of Perdue The Liar was in the high rent
district of Cobb County where participants were to pay $1,000.00 a plate
(bribes). It appeared to the ten or so of us that this fundraiser
was a flop because we didn't see but a handful of people entering.
As usual, we got favorable responses from the traffic on Cumberland Boulevard
this day. Thanks to those who show up to protest corrupt officials.
The Marietta Daily Journal's report
on this event included the following:
WHERE WAS controversial
Cobb County Republican party Chair Anthony-Scott Hobbs at Gov. Sonny Perdue's
early Friday evening cocktail reception at the One Overton Building in the Cobb
Cumberland area?
Hobbs had been Perdue's 2001 Cobb chairman when Perdue
unseated Gov. Roy Barnes. But his name did not appear as either a host or a
co-host on the $1,000-a-person invitation list and no one has reported seeing
Scott Hobbs, (joking call "ASH" by some Cobb GOPers), at the event, whose
attendance one Cobb bigwig called "disappointing."
Perdue's staff was fearful the governor would not draw a crowd in Cobb County,
the backyard of ex-Gov. Roy Barnes, so they added popular Republican U.S. Sen.
Johnny Isakson to speak. In fact, one Cobb ex-senator was making last minute
calls and e-mails asking to "please attend and bring anyone you can. Don't worry
about paying the money."
The event was hosted by building czar John Williams, state DOT member Johnny
Gresham and banker and Cobb Chamber chief-elect Kessel Stelling.
When was the last time
a sitting governor couldn't draw his campaign chair, the county party chief or a
crowd in Republican-rich Cobb County?

caught the fowl chicken at the Republican gathering in Dallas, Georgia, along
with our rotten Scalawag Speaker of the House Glenn Richardson.
Flaggin' # 127 of Perdue The Liar was at
the Gwinnett Community Center,
while, a few hundred yards away, Sonny Perdue was
probably telling more lies. No matter, though. Numerous motorists
still honked and waved their support as they passed by on busy Satellite
Boulevard. These were the members of that large, silent majority of
Georgia voters who still support the 1956 Flag of Georgia
Sonny "The Liar" Perdue was late in arriving for his
12 noon scheduled appearance at the Gwinnett Center, despite the assist
of his tax-payer-funded helicopter ride. He actually got there at 12:18
p.m. I guess the trip from Adairsville to Gwinnett Center was just too
much for the 30-minute allotted time frame, even for a helicopter. The
helicopter sped off after dropping him at the Center, so I guess he used
his SUV to make his exit from the civic function he attended there. I
didn't see him drive out, but I know he didn't fly out. He must have
used another exit other than the one I was at. I don't know if he saw
my flag as he was coming in on the helicopter, but a whole lot of his
constituents sure did! I saw to that.

Flaggin' # 126 of Perdue The Liar was in Adairsville today
as his helicopter was landed about 100 feet away from Mike (dressed in his
Perdue chicken suit) and we others added flags, signs and shouts to the Chief
Liar. Everyone who attended this event has been informed that Sonny
Lied about our flag vote. We were welcomed by all but the bigwigs.
Flaggin' # 125 of Perdue The Liar:
For the third time in a week, Sonny "The Liar" Perdue
has been flagged. Early on the morning of 30 September 2005, five
dedicated flaggers assembled in front of the grand opening of BrandsMart
in Kennesaw, Georgia. Present at this flagging were: Elijah Coleman and
his two sons, Chase and Rhett; Steve Monk and Albert Jelks. We got The
Liar going and coming and we got him good. He really didn't seem to
happy to see us there. His comment to us out the window of his SUV as
he rode in was, "You've got to be kidding!" Later, as he rapidly
departed BrandsMart, I distinctly heard him shout to us, "You guys
coming out to Oconee tonight?" This was obviously a sarcastic reference
to the grand flagging he was given earlier this summer at Lake Oconee
during the big governors convention held at the Reynolds Plantation
there. I'd be willing to bet good money that that flagging really got
under his skin. Any takers?
Anyway, we all enjoyed a great flagging at BrandsMart
in Kennesaw this morning. You can go have a look at the pictures that I
took of this event on Webshots at the following link...

Flaggin' #124 of Perdue The Liar:
Again this week Perdue was flagged at the
Hyatt Ravinia on Ashford Dunwoody Rd.
Flaggin' #123 of Perdue The Liar:
Albert, Larry, Steve, John, Michelle, Terry, Mike, Rhett,
Lijah, Chase, etc.
Ralph Reed attended the (Sonny the Liar $5,000,000.00 Israeli
Bonds pushed on Georgia citizens) celebration today at the
Hyatt Ravinia on Ashford Dunwoody Rd. How many of these dollars will come back
to Perdue and Reed in the form of
AIPAC (american israel political action committee) campaign contributions?
About a dozen angry citizens flagged these Scalawags late today for the 123rd
time since SONNY LIED at the beginning of his term. These people control the
Georgia Governor. It was Arthur Blank's Chamber of Commerce ($3,000,000.00)
that enticed Sonny to Lie in the first place. Now Ralphie wishes to follow his
mentor.

Sonny "The Liar"
Perdue, Georgia's next one-term
governor, was flagged today at the
Marriott Hotel Century Center in
Atlanta. The flagging was attended by
Norman Black, Lum Petit, Michelle
Hamlin, Jeffrey Monk and myself.
Response from passing motorists along
Century Boulevard and the NE Expressway
access road was very good. We also got
a good number of honks from traffic on
I-85. This was quite exhilarating and
enticed us to stay a little longer at
the flagging location. A great time was
had by all in attendance.

Flaggin' # 121 of Perdue The Liar:
About fifteen compatriots flagged
Predue and company in Sylvaina Ga at Repub. fish fry & fund raising on
the 21st of Sept. Predue & company arrived by chopper (I hope the state
didn't have to pay for it) He flew in a circled over us before landing.
The Flaggers started lining up a little after five for the event that
started at 6:30 pm. Mike Mull coordinated the Flaggers and Fred
Bussey(not shown) took pic's. As all ways a good time and a lot of fun
for all. The R&D restaurant in Sylvaina fed all the flaggers for free.
Max Burns came out on the road gave us a big plate of catfish and
another of hushpuppies. He was told that we had no donations and a few
fish would not get sonny(smiley) any votes. Punt Perdue!!!!
Flaggin # 120 of Perdue The Liar
at the Harris County High School in Hamilton, Ga.
We had the real Georgia flags and some great real Georgia signs with let us vote
stickers on them. We greeted the governor in his black SUV coming and going. It
was a fun time.
Bill and I reminded the governor of his broken promise yesterday

Flaggin # 119 of Perdue the Liar In Valdosta at the
convention center
during his visit there for the "Heritage Conference"
by Larry Mercer and I. There didn't seem to be many attending the
conference today. The wind blew steady the entire time we were there
keeping our 56's in prime view of the public. A few horn honks were as
exciting as it got.

Flaggin # 118 of Perdue the Liar in Macon at the Chamber of
Commerce gathering:
Five Georgia citizens joined up, greeted the public with a display of
'56 flags and SONNY LIED signs, and smiles/waves. Steve Scroggins, Russ
Huffman, Jim Wood, Norman Black and Steve Monk.
Perdue arrived by helicopter---still not sure where he landed----and
was ferried in the back way by car, so we didn't get to look him in the
eye going in but I'm sure he saw our flags flying in.
We had a steady flow of traffic from 7am until after 9am moving about
25-30 mph so we were able to make eye contact and wave to everyone,
speak to a few during slowdowns.
We had one or two deputies in cars protecting us as all times.
Right after 9am, two more Bibb Sheriff's cars showed up and one
started directing traffic when the Chamber folks started piling out of
the parking lot. This slowed traffic to a standstill and it was great.
Though not large in number, our sign & flag display was
beautiful....quite a spectacle to the weary travelers going to work.
PERDUE left by car, we saw him in the dark green SUV, he drove right
past us.
I have photos, but the photo of Perdue's car doesn't show him through
the dark glass.
Will post report and pix later.
It was unanimous that it was a good flagging.
I interviewed with Don Schanche of the Macon Telegraph (he covered us
at flagging's before) and also with a young lady from AM940, the local
talk radio station. The morning guy (Hoover) from 13WMAZ- TV paused on
the way in to get some footage of us on the sidewalk but he didn't speak
to us. 41 NBC-TV was there, but we didn't see them get any footage of
us.
Interesting conversation with the leaders of the Methodist
Home...will cover that later.
Great weather! Very worthwhile flagging. Thanks to Steve and Norman
for traveling so far to join us.

Flaggin' #117 of Perdue The Liar Chamber of
Commerce (lack of support) in Cartersville. Norman Black and Steve
Monk were at this weak gathering for Spineless Perdue, but left after placing
Boot Perdue stickers in the area. They did not see The Liar on this day.
FLAGGIN' #116 Of
Perdue The Liar Southern Governors' Conference Ritz
Carlton Reynolds Plantation on Lake Oconee, Greensboro, GA.
This meeting of Southern Governors featured our Perdue The Liar hosting a phony
Perdue for Southern heritage preservation and tourist incentive for Georgia and
the South. Since King Roy Barnes was booted, this Scalawag Sonny has
been the greatest enemy of Southern heritage. Since Bush was not
coming, we knew we could flag this event if we brought out our Confederate Navy,
Confederate Marines, Confederate Seals, Confederate Secret Service, and our
Confederate Air Force.
With contributions from heritage supporters, I sent the
Confederate Air Force $600.00 to fly over during the Governors' Ball from 7 to 8
PM, and during the next day's Jeff Foxworthy show from 1 to 2 PM.
Our Air Force tows a Giant real Georgia flag with the message to our angry
voters: "BOOT PERDUE". With other contributions of
$600.00 from Dan, Joel, Rhett, and me, I bought several slide projectors, a
marine battery, and had about 90 slides created from cartoons of Perdue and
flags, mostly provided by Steve Scroggins. I already had a DC to AC
Inverter 700 watts and an old Perdue sign 4'x8' that now says
LIED under Sonny's name. I brought a
bed sheet along just in case the white side of this sign was not big enough for
those on the grounds to see.
Hundreds of heritage supporters were notified of this great
opportunity to catch Sonny in his lying ways in front of the other Governors.
Because of this, about 15 flaggers joined those of us who planned this event.
And from all parts of GA did they come: Janet from Alabama, Rod from
Dalton, Mike from Toccoa, Lum from Cleveland, Richard from Lawrenceville, Dan
and Traci from Winston, Joel from Douglasville, Chase from Mableton, Norman from
Dunwoody, Albert from Woodstock, Billy from Bremen, John and his Son from
Marietta, as Bob Ryder loaned us his ship. Dan brought 2 Jetskis and
Joel towed the Ryder boat. On the lake we met up with the other planners,
Steve, Matt, and Josh from Macon, and Russ and Mike. Also a stranger, Dan
and his wife, Ralph and John. These compatriots had already set up a
borrowed pontoon boat and rented the only boat
available on this lake. We crowded together and set out to find the
Ritz. There were 7 water craft in our fleet.
On this beautiful day, we located Perdue The Liar's
favorite hideout and had a great flaggin' with our flags, signs, and the banner
plane overhead. Our ships had so many flags that we looked more like
sailing ships. Everyone did their share of flag and sign waving.
Today there was no doubt that SONNY LIED and the other Governors learned about
it. As a bonus, there were several in the media taking pictures of our
armada, flags, signs, and banner plane.
Our entertainment for this night did not occur. As
reported to us in error, there were no boats for us
to rent for the slide projector show. Therefore, Norman did not even
get to the flaggin'. All of the boats but ours left at twilight, and we
couldn't do the show from only our boat. The pontoon boat that had
been promised to come back after dropping off those with students, did not
return against the wishes of fellow renters Rod, Mike, Janet, Albert, Chase, and
Lum. Not sure about Captain Billy's wishes. We were
still anxious to entertain those on the beach even though the Ball was moved or
cancelled. There was no danger in returning across this lake after
dark, as we discovered.
Our banner plane will be over the next NASCAR race South of
Hellanta. Hope Perdue The Liar attends.
FLAGGIN' #115 Of Perdue The Liar in Hartwell:
Folks, this event wasn't on lying Perdue's posted schedule,
but we have angry voters everywhere to inform us where the spineless Chicken
will appear. This one was almost on the S. Carolina border, and
we'll bet the bribee Perdue was shocked to see all the flags, people, and signs
waiting on him at this middle school. Thanks to the following for
getting out into the 95 degree heat: Kyle, Mike, Lum, Harold, David, and
the other threelocal heritage supporters. The audience for the Liar
was very small, but outside for 2 1/2 hours, we got support from almost all of
the passer-bys in the busy traffic. This was not Perdue country.
Lijah
Flaggin' #114 of Perdue The Liar in Perry. I
missed this great flaggin' described below as I picked up Chase at the Sam Davis Youth Camp today. Your children should
go there for a week next Summer. See y'all at next Liar flaggin'.
This was one to remember. My boys especially liked the
raid into the parking lot.
Here's the first pictures. More will be
added as they are sent to me.
Bud Cranford
Flaggin' #113 of Perdue The Liar in Cochran:
Perdue was Flagged today in Cochran by 8
Flaggers.
Though I had heard some bad things about the Police in
Cochran, they were very courteous to us with many waving and giving us
the Thumbs-Up. Cochran seemed to be a Heritage friendly town with close
to ninety per-cent of the motorists waving or giving us the thumbs-up
sign. We stayed on task for about two hours even though we never saw
the Chicken arrive. We were having fun watching the motorists waving
back at us. Some even waved first.
When we rejoined forces we found that Brad and Wade had
gained some assistance; the LoS had joined us. Mike Bruce, Ben Davis
and Bobby Johnston were there proudly waving their Real Georgia Flags
and Milton Thomas was also there but without a flag. We also learned
that Perdue had flanked us yet again. Having learned we were there, he
decided to enter the Campus through the elementary School entrance.
It's amazing what he will do to avoid facing Georgia residents who
disagree with him.
Thanks to Brad Stephenson, Russ
Huffman, Wade Huffman, LoS members Mike Bruce, Ben Davis, Bobby
Johnston.
A special thanks to Milton Thomas
for his support. Bud
Cranford
Flaggin' #112 of Perdue The Liar in Augusta:
We had a great flagging at Savannah River
Pavilion in Augusta today. We had nearly 30 flaggers and received a lot
of support from the public and gave some great interviews to the local
media. It was great to see so many Confederate Americans take a stand.
Robert Sutton will e-mail you some photos, next time thanks to Bill
Bells suggestion we will flag Sonny at the airport and when he starts
telling his lies to the faithful we will hightail it to his secondary
destination and flag him there , kinda of a twofer. Everyone had a great
time and we are looking forward to another meeting with the Liar Sonny
Perdue.

Forget?
Heck no, say Confederate flag supporters who
trailed Gov. Sonny Perdue to Columbia County on
Saturday.
As the
governor rallied the troops inside Savannah
Rapids Pavilion with state School Superintendent
Kathy Cox, supporters of the Confederate battle
flag stood outside the canal headgates, waving
flags and signs "The flag decision
is the purpose that we're here," said Ron Udell,
of Augusta. "The 1956 flag should have been on
the ballot, people should have had the right to
decide the (fate of the) flag." Although
the group's efforts seemed fruitless, Mr. Udell
said, he'll continue to fight. "We're
going to continue to (do this) until he (the
governor) is defeated, or until another
referendum is issued."
Flaggin #111 of Perdue The Liar
as reported by Jack Gordon. He and Rusty
Taylor Flagged Perdue at the Rock (near Thomaston) Wednesday. This was a double
Feature event since Perdue was appearing there in two different locations at the
Quad Graphics complex.
Flaggin' #110 of Perdue The Liar
was a Georgia LS affair. Five men
were present. I didn't realise it at first, but besides the Central Georgia co-ordinator
being there, Glen Goodson (President, Southern Crescent Chapter), Jack Gordon
(President, West Central Georgia Chapter), and Ben Davis (President, Middle
Georgia Chapter) were there, which represents the entire primary leadership in
Central Georgia. Also attending was Rusty Taylor, which makes the West Central
Georgia folks the most in attendance.
I held my "Honk for your
flag" sign, and perhaps 90% of those going by honked. Male, female, black,
white--it did not make any difference. Deputy sheriffs, troopers, you name them,
were honking for the '56 flag. The issue is still out there. The greatest value
of flagging is not for the Liar's benefit, but for us who attend and see the
overwhelming positive response from the public, even by those who are on the
public payroll. It is a real inspiration to keep on, keeping on.
I remain, Bob Watson
Flaggin' # 109 of Perdue The Liar was a fun day in
Rockmart, Georgia. This is a Southern area that is covered with
Southern flags,
Boot Perdue signs, and always a lot of angry lied to voters. Perdue
sneaked in the back way down a dirt road rather than face his former
supporters who he had betrayed. Back Door Sonny!! The
Scalawags attending had more present than us, but not by many. And
as
seven police cars kept us company all evening, many good Southerners were saved
many tickets from these guys. Final note: Save your
proud Southern heritage. Join our flaggin' fun days and "Boot
Perdue". Bring back the kidnapped Confederate memorial '56
flag.
As he departs his fund raiser,
Sonny gives the supporters who got him elected a final wave. But if they have
anything to do with it (and they surely will), then he is Georgia's next
one-term governor.
Flaggin' #108 of Perdue The Liar was in Ringgold.
Info and Chattanooga news coverage will be added by Rod who was there.
Flaggin' #107 of Perdue The Liar was in Dalton.
Norman and myself flagged Sonny "The Flyin' Lyin'
Chicken" Perdue at Mohawk Mills. We arrived there at 1:00 (an hour
early) to check out the site. We then broke for dinner at a nearby
restaurant, returning to Mohawk Mills at 1:55 p.m. Sonny arrived by
helicopter about 15 minutes later and his helicopter then flew off.
Sonny exited Mohawk Mills about 45 minutes later by way of a black suv,
his Georgia State Patrol escort following a couple of minutes behind
him. Norman and I stayed on until shift change at Mohawk Mills (about
3:00). We got honks and enthusiastic waves from nearly everyone. For
just two people, it was a grreat flagging. The business establishment
across the street from Mohawk Mills allowed us to park inside their
fenced property.

Flaggin' # 106 of Perdue The Liar:
Harold Porter from Cornelia and I flagged
Lying Sonny Perdue this morning at the Telford Hulsey Business Park in
White County (Cleveland). The Lying Governor was speaking at
a dedication ceremony this morning at 10:00 a.m. of the GBI Forensic
Crime Lab located in the White County Business Park.
Harold and I showed up about 9:20 a.m.
and started putting our signs and flags out. We placed four 3X5 Real
GA Flags on flag poles and fourteen signs along the side of US 129 on
each side of the street leading into the park. We had five different
sign logos. I held a 3X5 Real GA Flag and a sign that said Sonny is a
Liar. Harold held a 4X6 Real GA Flag and a sign that said Sonny is a
Liar. About 9:55 the LIARS FOWLYCOPTER landed in an open area right in
front of us. He flew over us before landing. He got a very good look
at us on his arrival and departure. We were waving our flags and
holding up or signs and hollowing SONNY LIED and SONNY IS A LIAR as he
walked from the Whirlybird to an automobile and from the automobile back
to the Whirlybird when leaving. He lifted off about 10:55 and was on
the ground about one hour. We waved our flags until he was out
of sight. A White County Deputy Sheriff car set on the side of US 129,
with its headlights and blue lights flashing the whole time we were
there, which was great because it sure did get a lot of attention. He
was there with his lights flashing when we arrived and when we left. We
very much enjoyed flagging the liar. Sorry, no pictures available.

Flaggin' #105 of Perdue The Liar:
Predue flaggin in Columbia County, Ga by
Camp #158 Augusta Ga on 21Jun05.
Flaggin #104 of Perdue The Liar was in Perry
I arrived at the event very close to the
scheduled 3:30 arrival of Perdue, I spotted two Real Georgia Flags
flying. While I was prepared to Flag Perdue by myself, I found Elijah
Coleman and a young friend Brian Horton already on the scene. This was
Brian's first Flagging but he didn't even catch a glimpse of the King
Chicken.
About five minutes later we heard the
familiar Buc, Buc, Buc, Buc of the Fowleycopter. Chicken Perdue once
again flanked our Welcoming Committee, choosing to spend more of the
taxpayers money by arriving by air (who said Chickens can't fly?).
People we still arriving so we spent an enjoyable hour waving our flags
and waving to passing motorists. Lijah told me I had missed the
interview with someone from the Perry paper (Probably the Houston Home
Journal) but only moments later a reporter with a minicam from WMAZ-TV
stopped in front of us shot a little film and asked if we had attempted
to talk to Perdue. We told him we had talked to him several times but
he kept on lying. Elijah also told him that the Perdue Flag was a copy
of the Jim Crow flag and the true flag of civil rights and advancement
for Georgia was the one we were carrying. We also informed him that
this was the 104th time Perdue had been flagged.
Shortly after 4:00 we heard the
Fowleycopter fire up, but Perdue must have been at the controls as it
took off sideways, not clearing the tops of the trees until it was about
3/4 mile away. Do you suppose Perdue looked back, to see us madly
waving our 56 flags as he beat a hasty retreat?
I think this was the first Flagging I
have been to where close to 75% of the motorists both Black and White,
smiled and waved back at us, including guests at the dedication, and
nary a single finger salute did I see.
Whether he saw us or not, Perdue Knew we
were there.

THE SEA ISLAND CAUSEWAY. OH, HOW I
LOVE THE SEA ISLAND CAUSEWAY ! ! !
OF ALL THE PLACES I'VE FLAGGED AT, THE
SEA ISLAND CAUSEWAY IS BY FAR AND AWAY THE MOST RECEPTIVE OF US. WE

AS WE WAITED FOR PRINCE
PROPAGANDA TO ARRIVE, IT OCCURRED TO ME THAT IF HE WAS AN HOUR LATE FOR
HIS FIRST ENGAGEMENT, WE MAY BE IN FOR QUITE A SPELL THIS TIME. BUT IT
WAS A GOOD WAY TO PASS THE TIME, AND FUN WAS HAD BY ALL. AS WE STOOD, WE
SAW NUMEROUS "ATLANTA AREA" TAGS ON VEHICLES LOOKING VERY OFFICIAL AS
THEY HEADED TOWARD THE CLOISTER, AND AS ALWAYS, WE WERE LOOKING FOR
THAT ONE BLACK S.U.V., AND KEEPING HALF AN EYE OUT IN OTHER VEHICLES AS
WELL, IN CASE OF A SNEAK-IN.
I SAW A BLACK S.U.V. PASS BY WITH
A BEAUTIFUL BLONDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, AND YOU KNOW, IF IT
WASN'T
OLD SONNY BOY HIMSELF DRIVING, IT
WAS HIS TWIN BROTHER........YEAH.......HE KNEW WE WERE THERE.

PARKED SIDE BY SIDE WITH FLAGS STICKING OUT OF EVERY ORIFICE THAT WOULD
HOLD ONE, AND WITH " SONNY LIED " SIGNS IN HAND, WE WELCOMED THE
TURNCOAT IN USUAL FASHION, WHO WAS ONE FULL HOUR LATE ! ! !
AS HIS S.U.V. WAS PARKING, IT WAS STOPPED BY
A STATE TROOPER WHO ASKED...." DO YOU WANT ME TO REMOVE THESE FLAGGERS
?"......PERDUE'S AIDE ANSWERED...." NO, THEY'RE EXERCISING THEIR 1st
AMENDMENT RIGHTS " MONIKA TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THE HESITATION AND STEPPED
OUT IN FRONT OF THE GUBERNATORIAL COACH TO SNAP AN "UP CLOSE AND
PERSONAL" PIC OF OLD BALDIE.
THE REST WAS THE USUAL DISPLAY OF POLITICAL
HOBNOBBING, HANDSHAKING, AND THE SPEECH OF THE DAY BY " YOU KNOW WHO ".
Flaggin' #101 of Perdue the Liar was carried out by
Harold Porter, Jim Yarbrough from Gainesville, and
Lum Petitt at Brenau University in Gainesville Thursday evening, May 26.
Arrival was scheduled for 6:30 p.m. We arrived about 6:00 p.m. and people were
already arriving. We had just arrived and was getting our flags out and a
policeman can up and told Harold that he could not use the metal flag pole. He
said we could use wood or plastic but no metal poles. Not a problem, I had
several flags on pvc pipe. He then told us that we could not be closer than 100
feet of Brenau property with our flags and signs.
Everyone that came was dressed in their finest. Judging from all the people
going in, Lying Sonny must have had quite an audience. We got some positive
response and some people were afraid to look at us. The program was to start at
7:00 p.m. with a champaign reception to follow in Yonah Hall and on the front
lawn. Harold and I left about 8:00 p.m. since we figured this thing might go on
until midnight. We did not see the lying governor.
We just got back from our enjoyable Sonny The Liar
flaggin' #100 at the Biltmore Hotel in HelLanta.
This was a fund raiser to support his campaign, with Scalawag couples
paying up to $2,000.00
each. This event was sponsored by wealthy fat cats
who have no desire to elect an honest
Governor to represent the People.
We covered the entire front sidewalk of the Biltmore
Hotel with our signs, flags, and the Perdue chicken puppet.
Vindictively, all of the front doors of the Biltmore
were locked just after we started this sidewalk flaggin'.
Couples and individuals were disgusted by having to
walk another 300 feet to go in the back door
to donate up to $2,000.00/couple. Some may have
decided to leave. So our presence was
felt as our flags and Sonny Lied signs were seen by
all. A few of the politicians there told us they
always supported a fair flag vote for Georgia and
still do. Of the thousands of cars on W. Peachtree
Street, many occupants displayed their support for our
actions. Bruce Lyle spoke to everyone, and many
were friendly to us in this 100th flaggin' of Perdue.
A good day, and a lot of fun for us.
Flaggin # 99 of Perdue The Liar in Macon: Report by
Steve Scroggins:
I got out my 3x5 '56 flag & pole and my LUV-SONNY LIED sign and
began pacing back and forth on the front walk at the corner of Fifth
& Cherry. Fairly soon, some were starting to trickle out...the
Lexus SUV types would do a double take, then act like they didn't
see me. There were a few smiles. One old fogey with floppy fishing
hat and a suit came by with his elderly wife and said, "You tell
him, son, tell him to go see those gravestones at Rose Hill". I
said "Yes, sir, that's why I'm out here."
Perdue finally comes out at 535 and I spot his bald head...he
sees me and stumbles...doing a studder step as if he toe hit and
uneven spot on the sidewalk. Then he goes into rapid speed walk
pulling Mrs. Perdue along...he's not looking but Mrs. Perdue is
staring at me (I suppose the SONNY LIED message is not news to
her).
I think the young man with Perdue is his son (carrying the pink
jacket on a hanger). Ain't that just like a TURNCOAT...put on a
pink jacket in Macon (Cherry Blossom Capitol) and take it off before
leaving. Several of them eye me nervously as if they expect me to
charge.
As Perdue drove away, I furled my flag and as I crossed the
street to my truck, a man waiting at the traffic light in a pickup
truck said, "You're right, HE LIED...HE LIED!" and I nodded and said
"He sure did, I just wanted to remind a few folks.
Flaggin' #98 of Perdue The
Liar occurred at the Atlanta Raceway at Hampton. The banner plane

thousands.
Flaggin #97 of Perdue the Liar
George Purdue (or as some are calling him Purdon't,
for his not keeping his promises) made his trip to Moultrie on Tuesday
last. He flew onto the campus of Moultrie Technical College via
helicopter. He was greeted by five members of the famous "Flaggers" on
his arrival, the majority were on "public" property near the entrance
drives to the campus, while one waited near the landing site all with
flags flying. It's interesting to note that several additional folks
were recruited or should I say stopped to join in, asking to utilize
extra flags to show their support for the cause. Over the period of
about 3 hours there were several hundred thumbs-up and honking horns
while less than a dozen gave any negative signs, either by comment or
via visual signs indicating their I.Q. with their center finger.. He
left in a white Chevy suburban, and with his usual wave to the men at
the entrance headed off to a "private fund raiser", several who had
supported him in his first run for the office were absent.
Word from within the monitored event was the gov.
mentioned the flaggers at least twice in his comments...

Flaggin #92 of Perdue The Liar
Georgia's next 1 term Governor, "Lying"
Sonny Perdue, visited Valdosta, home of the notorious South Georgia flagger
Larry "No Quarter" Mercer. Larry got to the appointed spot about 2 hours early
and got the prime location which turned out to be about 10' from where the
podium would be set up for Perdue to speak. Larry stood his ground beside his
bright yellow truck, which is plastered with signs reading "Sonny Perdue is a
liar" and other such sayings, the whole time Perdue spoke.
Flaggin' #91 of Perdue the Liar
This afternoon the Georgia flaggers went
to St. Simons, Georgia, about a one hour drive from Jesup. And guess who
was there?
Chicken
Perdue Spineless and Fowl.
Both Harry and Sarah reported
that the public support was overwhelmingly in their favour. Many
people would stop and ask to buy the Georgia flag and the
Georgia car tag. There was a great interest in the sign SONNY
LIED.

THE PUBLIC SENTIMENT FOR OUR BELOVED
SOUTHERN HERITAGE REFUSES TO DIE ! ! ! IT WAS INDEED AS STRONG AS I'VE
EVER SEEN IT, AS I SQUARED OFF THIS A.M. ON MAIN STREET IN BLACKSHEAR
JUST A LITTLE BEFORE 10:00............
I WAS ONE BLOCK AWAY FROM THE OLD
TRAIN DEPOT.....( A.K.A. THE PIERCE COUNTY CHAMBER OF HORRORS ) AND
THERE WAS A SMALL CROWD ALREADY GATHERED OF ABOUT 18 - 20 VEHICLES, AND
THEY HAD A GOOD VIEW OF ME, (BUT NOT THE EXCELLENT VIEW THE MAIN DRAG
HAD) AS TRUCK AFTER CAR AFTER VAN PARADED BY WITH HORN HONKS, SHOUTS,
THUMBS UP, AND FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE I BEGAN FLAGGING, THREE PEOPLE
STOPPED TO GIVE ME MONEY ! ! ! OF COURSE I DECLINED AND EXPLAINED THAT
THERE WERE AT LEAST TWO POLITICIANS IN"THAT THERE BUILDING" THAT THINKS
IT PROPER TO BASH SOUTHERN HERITAGE, THEY WERE " TWO PEAS IN A POD ",
AND THE POD NEEDS TO BE VOTED OUT COME ELECTION TIME.
ONE BLACK S.U.V. SLOWED DOWN TO
SNAP A PIC OF ME IN MY DIXIE OUTFITTERS SHIRT AND CONFEDERATE FORAGE
CAP, THEN TURNED AROUND
PULLED UP, AND GOT A CLOSE UP SNAP.
BUT THE HIGHLIGHT MUST HAVE BEEN
WHEN A REPORTER FROM THE BLACKSHEAR TIMES SNAPPED A SHOT, GOT A
STATEMENT FROM ME, AND SAID THAT I SHOULD BE IN WEDNESDAY'S PAPER ! ! !
THE THEME OF WHAT I TOLD HIM WAS THAT SONNY LIED, ( I BRIEFLY TOLD HIM
HOW SO HE'D KNOW THAT ALL US REDNECKS A'INT STUPID ), WE REMEMBER, AND
WANT EVERYONE ELSE TO REMEMBER TOO.......
AFTER ENCOURAGING EVERYONE WITHIN
EARSHOT TO VOTE, ENJOYING THE SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO STOPPED TO SHOW THEIR
SUPPORT
AND JUST PLAIN BASKING IN THE GLOW OF THE
UNDYING LOVE THAT THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY HAS FOR OUR BELOVED
SOUTHLAND, I WRAPPED IT UP AROUND 12:30 WITH A SENSE OF SATISFACTION AND
PURPOSE......GOD SAVE THE SOUTH............

Today's flaggin' of the NAACP and the Mayor of Augusta, Georgia
Last night, the voters in Wallace
Sholars district were reminded of his treachery in removing the
56 flag of Georgia.
Approximately 60 Democrats,
and supporters of Sholars were at a BBQ in Climax Georgia,
attended by such notables as Mark Taylor, Terry Coleman, Cathy
Cox and defeated turncoat senator Harold Ragan.
Considering the supposed importance
of his guests and the free food, you would have thought the
numbers would have been larger.
There were 3 ways into the Pavilion
where it was being held. About 20 Sack Sholar signs mysteriously
appeared on the 3 roads into it before the event started at
6:30.
The event was also attended by a
dozen hard core flaggers from the SW Georgia area. We
split up evenly and covered the three means of entrance
and egress into the event equally. Report by Pete

Flaggin # 87 of Perdue The Liar
Houston County High School in Bonaire
Report by Jim Wood
Flaggin #86 of Perdue The Liar was at
at Jeffersonville
- Report by Jim Wood
Flaggin' #85 of Perdue The Liar was reported
at the East Hall High School, Gainesville, GA.
The announced time for Lying Sonny's
"Governor's Cup Announcement" was 11:00 - 11:30 a.m. I arrived at the
school around 10:30 a.m. I had just parked and got out with my flag and
sign when two Hall Co. Deputies drove up and got out and told me that I
could not protest on school property. I was on the side of the road on the
school side. They had me to move my car to the other side of the road and
they set up a protest area with cones and yellow ribbon. I told them that I
was not there to cause trouble that I was only exercising my 1st amendment
rights by protesting Lying Sonny. The ribbon said, "crime scene do not
cross". I thought, how fitting with Lying Sonny on the other side of the
yellow ribbon.
Two helicopters landed one at 11:24 and
the other at 11:28 one of them bringing the LIAR. The copters were there
two and four minutes and lifted off. I got lots of response from the
students both going and coming from their class rooms to the gymnasium.
One lady stopped and told me that she
agreed with me but why take such a big chance. I asked her, why not? I
said to her that we didn't elect Lying Sonny to make his own flag did we?
She said, "hell no".
The helicopters came back over when the
"Governor's Cup Announcement" was over and Lying Sonny slipped out in a
sheriff's car with all the lights flashing with a whole convoy of cop cars
behind him with their lights flashing. He took me by surprise and I didn't
realize what was happening until he had already gone by and threw up his
hand at me. I was expecting him to leave the school by helicopter. Another
day in the life of a lone flagger.

Flaggin' #
82 of Perdue The Liar was Bad for him tonight in Acworth.
This was one of our best flaggins yet.
Ole Perdue couldn't miss us coming from a 1/2 mile away. What a pretty
sight it must have been with all the flags set up on the hill at the
entrance to this Multi Million dollar neighborhood. The Cobb County
Sheriff's deputies were out in force, but were very professional and
friendly. I don't think we have ever been treated better by the law. I
didn't see a whole lot of guests going inside. I counted about 8 or 9
cars with some type of political stickers on them, so they didn't have a
very big turnout. Of all the people going in, including the regular
homeowners not going to the party, I didn't recognize anyone but Perdue.
When Perdue pulled in he got an earful of
SONNY LIED, smiling and grinning at us like always. Time is running out
on Sonny. Soon he will start to get bothered by it.
Pictures to follow later......
Report by Ken Waters
Flaggin of former King Roy Barnes, with Mark Taylor and
Buddy Darden from the Georgia Political Underground:
The scene was at the end of a cul-de-sac located at
1876 Mini Ball Ridge in Marietta Georgia. Imagine the cul-de-sac full of
flaggers when one George Buddy Darden arrives. Being that George has a
history of shooting people birds, we tried to get him to model his best
pose, but he declined to do so for the camera. Instead a very scowling
George fired off a missive of 4 letter insults, with a few cowards thrown
in.
{netted over $15,000 for Rick Crawford for Congress}
{ People came from throughout Cobb County}
What a Lie.
If you discount Rick Crawford himself, and his family, and George and his
daddy and momma, and Mark Taylor's body guard, there were a grand total of 9
guests show up for this event. I counted them myself. And 2 of those were
that ambulance chaser Guy Drexinger and his lady. BOY, how the mighty have
fallen when the current Lt. Governor and the former King Roy can't draw more
than 9 guests to a fundraiser. There were more flaggers there than that. And
they call that a successful event? Im LMAO! Yep, people came from throughout
Cobb and the surrounding area all right, all armed with the 1956 flag. I can
assure you that outside the house, they weren't smiling, especially George.
But wait, Mark Taylor WAS smiling outside as he shook hands with the
flaggers, ask for the bubba vote, and what was that? A vote on the 56 flag?
Did I hear that correctly? Is Taylor about to steal the GOP's
silver bullet and turn it in them?See photos. Oh, and when Roy
came by us, he discovered that he (Roy) is still paying for his treachery 4
years later. Sure looks like it to me.
Lt. Governor Mark Taylor wants our vote for Governor.
Flaggin #81 of Perdue the Liar
Perry, Georgia at the National Fairgrounds A near perfect day
for our men and women, and not so good for Perdue who felt he had to sneak out
the back way to avoid the dozens of protesters still waiting to catch him again
as he departed. Perdue had seen the Sonny Is A Liar signs from Macon
to Perry on I-75, and then he was struck by a sea of red flags as he left the
Interstate. Several people paid $10.00 to eat with Chicken Perdue, but
they all had to pass by our protest declaring Perdue to be The Liar.
So many flags were waving on a line covering two blocks, that we must have
looked like an army to Perdue and gang. In fact, about six to eight
patrol cars were sent to harass us for the day. Such a waste of tax payer
funds for all these patrol cars just sitting under the trees all day.
If a crime occurred near Perry on this day, I'm sure they were able to escape.
I was not so lucky, as one patrol car waited three hours until I pulled into the
road and gave me two more tickets to go with the eleven political payback
tickets I am already holding. I promised this Gestapo lackey that we
are going to get him a new boss and that this harassment only strengthens our
resolve.
Our protest of Perdue the Liar was covered by TV, Radio,
and the local newspaper reporters. Enthusiasm from the public on
I-75 and the local traffic was great, without the usual birds we get around
Hellanta. If this was Chicken Perdue's re-election kick-off, then
he's really in trouble. Flaggers came from everywhere:
Toccoa, Cleveland, Dalton, Chickamauga, Hiram, Mableton, Powder Springs,
Lawrenceville, Hellanta, Macon, and from all parts of Middle and South Georgia.
A Black flagger even came from S. Carolina to help. And we can't
wait until Perdue braves us again! The more his police hassle us and
write us tickets, the madder we become. He is going to be another
one-termer. And after November, he will be our only target who must
pay for his treachery.
Part of Court House Flag Rally in Calhoun, Georgia
Flaggin # 80 of Perdue The Liar Douglasville,
Georgia, county Court House. Sonny may decide to travel at night in
the future, as today he was blinded by about a hundred "Punt Perdue",
"Sonny Is a Liar", and "Sonny Lied" signs someone placed everywhere on I-20 and
everywhere around and leading to the Court House. His day wasn't
made any easier when he arrived to find the entrance smothered and covered with
scattered '56 flags and angry betrayed voters. It was also here in
Douglas County that the Liar stated that we would get to vote on the stolen '56
State flag as he took in our money back when he was only a candidate.
And for sure, the Liar was confronted both coming and going as usual.
He was asked questions inside, but when outside there were none.
Only promises from us! C'mon out Sonny, we can't wait. You're
going to have to earn that $3,000,000.00 you took from Hellanta's CofC and
Arthur Blank for selling out those who supported you.<
;)
