[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Nothing Abrams said was factually untrue.

All the people attacking her know this and can't dispute the facts about Georgia so they move to personal attacks.

A lot of racist dog whistles in Perdue's response and so many of them echoed on this board.

Do better, Georgia.

She said that Georgia is "the worst state in the country to live."

In elementary school, I learned that statements like that were opinions, not fact.  Didn't you?

And, if she has this opinion, I wonder why she lives there and continues to make millions while living there.  [/quote]

Oh please.  She slipped when she was speaking and has recently noted that her comments were "inartful".  But what she posted in her tweet was true and Kemp/Purdue can't refute that so he'd rather just attack her and tell her "go back to where she came from" rather than acknowledge that Georgia has material mortality statistics at the level that even poor countries would be ashamed of.

It was on Saturday when Abrams told a gathering of Democrats in Gwinnett County, “I am tired of hearing about being the best state in the country to do business when we are the worst state in the country to live.... When you’re number 48 for mental health, when you’re number one for maternal mortality...then you’re not the number one place to live in the United States.”

In fact, Georgia is at the bottom rankings among all 50 states for access to mental health services, although it has improved slightly, according to the United Way; Georgia is 45th worst, now, not 48th.

And the CDC continues to rank Georgia as having the worst maternal mortality rate of all 50 states.[/quote][/quote]
