Dalton, GA - Michael Mule', adviser to Dalton Mayor David Pennington, issued the following response to Nathan Deal's press release this morning touting Georgia's business environment ranking: "While international papers are writing about Nathan Deal's ethics problems, Nathan is trying to source an obscure magazine to claim an 'accomplishment' that does not exist. Magazines and sources that Georgians actually read are offering the truth. Forbes Magazine, in their 2013 Best States for Business, ranks Georgia 10 times below the level that Nathan claims.
