Curious about who gave money to Robert Goodman's campaign? http://media.ethics.ga.gov/Search/Campaign/Campaign_ByName.aspx

From ALL the contribution reports, it appears that Robert (Rob) Goodman received contributions (monetary and in kind) totalling a little over $6000.

Hmm, a company called Harmony Business Solutions is listed on the Two Business Day Report as contributing almost $2000. Harmony. Does that name sound familiar? http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/07/education/07charter.htm? Just a coincidence, we're sure.

Looking at the Georgia Secretary of State's website for officers and registered agents of Harmony yields the name of some company on the other side of Atlanta (A shell company? I think someone's followers are becoming more adept at hiding their names.)
Search the Harmony address given with the campaign contribution -
http://www.fultoncountytaxes.org/fultoniwr/11a_depts_property_taxes.asp

So, this search shows that out of about $6000 in campaign contributions Mr. Goodman received, oh about $5000 from Turkish, ahhh, interests. Five sixths - about 85%. This isn't even counting money received from a Fulton Science Academy governing board member.

85% funding -not odd?
Question for those who voted for Goodman - did you know or do you care?

Do you think, maybe, those contributions came about because of the epic fail on the part of the school board in closing FSA? Get the facts, Mark.
