If I remember correctly, my sources said that McMillan made the mistake of using his work email address for personal communication. And in at least one of those personal communications, he told someone that Poe is an idiot.

Underpup, my friend never spoken a word to Donna and only about three sentences to Poe they were not the reason i posted, it is you. My desire is for you to try just once to say a positive thing about anything lets start with one thing and just see how it feels? It will feel weird at first and after you say a few more it will get better and then before you know it you will start getting a little happier inside. Then it will come poring out of you!

Seriously, you are a smart guy you are just filled to the top with hatred. I would wish your attitude on no one. You probably could be a very productive person but you are so filled with part hate and the rest love for only yourself that there is no room for anything else. That is ashame.

...but as a member of the DSS board you think she did not have some input to the current BOC.

Judy was not on the BOC during that meeting, but as a member of the DSS board she did not have some input to the current BOC.


That meeting was a farce anyways. Its was essentially a show to show the nuts that put these guys in office they would stand up to the DSS, in the meantime the people of the county are the ones that paid the price for their stupid games.

Wow at least i shut underpup up for a while!

Dropout, if JPP had came out and said to the public "yep fired his ***" Everyone on here would have been upset! I employ a bunch of people and have fired some i would have said the same thing. If thats all you got then I am not too impressed. Again i could care less about JPP my point is that underpup would not be happy with a feather up his butt! Also i really dont understand why JPP has gotten this crowd so upset geez people relax! Go watch the meeting where Donna approached the board and requested more staff and see what you think if i were a member of that board i too would be pissed at her! THE MEETING I AM TALKING ABOUT IS WITH THIS CURRENT BOARD AND JPP IS NOT EVEN ON IT!

Hey movin, get you head out of poes butt and come take a little dose of reality. How many lies has poe really told?

I never said poe was on the board of commissioners when Donna wanted the employees now did I ?

Wait until they stumble across the emails when Gates left.

From the AMT article... Through the emails the AMT discovered Judy Porter Poe, chairwoman of the commissioners, gave an explanation of McMillan's departure that was false.

What Judy has done is make accusations about the DSS without any facts to back it up. However, she has revealed herself that she is not doing her job on the DSS board as required by the state. In her words the only thing that will change is that the director will be under the county Manager. That is not true, the county must take over all responsibilities that she should be doing now.


Here are her so called Facts?

Paper is slower than Computer: This is an assumption, In working with companies that have gone paperless, they have found that some processes are slower without the paper. And the thinking that all files should be scanned....it takes a lot of resources to do this. Its not as easy as scanning them in, then they have to be filed correctly and backed up. It sounds easy, but I have seen the cost around .10 to .20 per page. So for those of you who don't like math. If they have 1,000,000 pages(I bet it is we over that) that is close to $100K at the least.

Other county employees are treated different than DSS. Most of this is State/Federal regulated, will moving them under the County change that?

I have already mentioned the duties of the Board.

So where are her so called facts?

Oh and when Donna asked for more staff JPP wasnt even a commissioner it was with the current board, dummy!

Puppy, you should try just once to post something that is positive it can truely be life changing! Try it just once! You could at the very least post something of value. You will find if if you start with just one good post it may lead to another and the next thing you you know you could actually find yourself being a little happier. Once you get happier you might even find yourself in a normal life. It really would be better for all if you did. If nothing else it would lend more credibility to your posts.
You still have not told me of one lie just someone that i dont know who JPP told a lie too. See the difference? Oh and BTW I am not related or even know any commissioner on a first name basis.

Movinonout has some valid points in their post.

As a matter of fact Judy poe was caught in a lie to Joseph who is a regular poster on this site. You have shown your ignorance in claiming there are only 2 or 3 persons posting on this site and therefore your creditably is shot to ell from the beginning.

Judy poes hate for Donna started long before a few months ago. Donna came to the board because she needed employees because the case loads were so great the employees were having to work over time and accruing comp time. These employees would like to be able to go home to look after their families at 5pm rather than having to work overtime. The story Judy poe tells which by the way has not been substantiated by anyone is another lie. By doing what Donna asked the county would have gotten if memory serves me more then 200k back from the feds over and above the actual costs to the county for adding the additional employees. Ask Judy poe about the seats over at ASU that bremco has.

JPP did a horrible job as a county commissioner and was removed from it in a primary vote so that she could not return as one. She then weasled her way onto the DSS board which impacts a large number of voters in this county and those same voters voiced they wanted her to have nothing to do with county government. (She was removed from office as was her equally horrible Commissioner partner Gerald Price).

Donna had the means of paying for the extra employees through federal and state grants to where the cost to the county was negligible to add on additional staff which would have reduced wait times for those seeking assistance.
