What happened to Rep. Tom Dickson’s ‘R’?
March 6, 2008 at 6:41 pm by Thomas Wheatley in NewsState Rep. Tom Dickson, R-Cohutta, was the lone Republican in the House to vote against Speaker Glenn Richardson’s GREAT Plan. A lot of folks expected retribution to come down — bills getting tossed, committee shuffling, etc. — but is cybersnobbery the way Richardson works these days?
Notice below Dickson’s online bio from 2005-2006:

And here’s a screenshot of his most recent bio taken about, oh, 10 minutes ago.

According to the Wayback Machine, the page was last updated on April 3. But it only lists results as late as Sept. 2007, and I couldn’t find Dickson’s 2006-2007 bio. Quelle scandale!
But seriously … Glenn, baby, come on. Hack the guy’s MySpace account. That’s where you can really have some fun.

That is the equivalent of getting bumped from a 15-year-old girl’s top 8 on MySpace. Dickson’s social life as he knows it is soooo over. He won’t get to put his sleeping bag next to Glenn’s at the House Republican slumber party this weekend, that’s for sure.

How dare Tom Dickson not engage in group think! How dare he use his brain and vote against something that would be horrible for schools (he’s a former school administrator). HOW DARE he represent his constituency! Zealot!

Scandal, I tell you, Sellout! May our voices rattle the very foundation of government!
