Rob Teilhet, Inc. to be dissolved

Amazingly, the provision in the ethics bill that would have legalized Sonny Perdue's unlawful behavior from the 2002 campaign was removed after the Democratic Party of Georgia's press conference pointing out what a bad thing it was to do and how it attempted to whitewash Perdue's past. Even though Perdue's spokesperson mocked Bobby Kahn and said they didn't know anything about the provision, somehow it disappeared in conference. Goes to show that occasionally if you throw enough darts you'll hit something, even though you wouldn't have read about it in the AJC (they buried it in a legislative wrapup). Credit where credit is due, the Morris newspapers all wrote good stories about this blatant attempted unethical powergrab.

I suppose that Rob Teilhet, Inc. and Bill Stephens Manufacturing will now be dissolved. Now that you can't funnel money from your personal business to your political campaign, for many Georgia politicians, what's the point of being an entrepreneur?
