According to a report from the Atlanta Journal Constitution today.
http://www.ajc.com/news/government-wast ... 60180.html
Senator Jeff Mullis recieved $34,958 in per diem from the State from Jan 1, 2008 through March 19, 2010.
The report says this is in addition to the $17,000 that lawmakers recieve for Salary each year. Mullis is also compensated by the Northwest Georgia JDA as it's full time Director. Dade County pays the JDA for it's services based on the population. Anyone know his Salary at the JDA? His per diem was for 144 days.

Let's see that money for perdiem, campaign donations, NWGJD and the Lobbist and his salery for the few months is a pretty good deal for him, and Dade County gets a weekly phone call to his buddie media mogal and a few followers that never check out anything for themselves. Man how much money can one politician make off this county? Ohh I forgot, we like throwing money away for sorry politicians here in DADE! We're pretty good at it..... That's ok, hopefully by next week the media mogal will at least have his information correct to be able to help Mr. Mullis look better than he sounded on the Radio this morning...lol...lol.. What a JOKE!

Well after being in Cyber pergatory for a couple of months I was able to sign back in. Come on Guys give the State Senator Jeff"Wimpy"Mullis a break... I know that after looking at him and see all those Senate Prock's for every eating establishment except out local McDonald's ( They should have got one for their outstanding Iced Tea" and see his portly figure it does not take long to figure out "Thar's to much Porkin goin'on when he is in Atlanta. Maybe next year he will eat weight watchers meals and for god sakes get out of our pocket's. And becide if he don't... he want be able to ride his mag lev train because the mass he will put on it will overheat the magnets and it will screech to a halt somewhere around Tunnel Hill.

I remember talking about Mr. Mullis being hired by the NWGJD and thought it was a "Bad Idea" then, but was told with all his "Power" it could really help Dade County. Now it's been about 3 years and what have we seen? O, I forgot when Peter had to resign, they appointed his little Media Mogal buddie (Stone) to the position so they could spend a little more "Quality time" shinning the Fire Engine of their hearts. That's the problem with these Good Ole Boys Boards. What in the heck does Mr. Stone know about bringing business and jobs to Dade County? Just that they might advertise on his little radio station??????? My problem has to do with Why?

Glad you were able to get back on board tractor.... As far as Mullis a break! Did you say break? Oh no, there he goes again for a break....lol...lol...

Yea, Well the SHAW building would make a secure large warehouse for about anything you would want to put into in. Wonder what Shaw is using it for right now?
