Re: “TBI Blasts Channel 4 Report on Disappearance of Holly Bobo

This story was typical hyperbolic yellow journalism which is now the norm for this crap TV station. Channel 4 was once respectable but no more.

Re: “Hey, Gov. Haslam — CEOs are Accountable to Shareholders, Right?

Government should not be run like business. Government is not business; they have very different aims.

And Haz should keep the phrase "appearance of impropriety" in mind. They don't teach that at B-school, I imagine.

Jim Collins, those are not mere diversions! Get your undersized head out of the sand! And ObamaSauce sounds disgusting! We already have ObamaCare, ObamaCore, and Obamaphones! If we have to have ObamaSauce, this country is even worse off than I could have ever imagined!

Wait, you're saying Dennis Ferrier sensationalized something? You're kidding! That's so unlike him.

It should be made clear that the ""which must protect its secrets..." quote is from Humphrey, not Haslam.

Re: “Tennessee Lawmakers Defend Cockfighting

If its legal to have an unborn child ripped from your womb and killed why can I not fight my roosters. If you don't like it don't go see it, its not like we do it in public. Cockfighting should be legalized and put in to casinos so the state can make much needed revenue. If we as a country can allow abortion why can you not turn a blind eye to the oldest sport ever.

B P, you do know that certain "conservative" pundits and their attack diversion-dogs are gonna question the legitimacy of your birth, the possibility of your communist party membership, and accuse you of eating babies dipped in Obama sauce (lo-cal, gluten-free and hideously organic)!

Re: “TBI Blasts Channel 4 Report on Disappearance of Holly Bobo

TBI Director Gwyn was promoted to Director after serving as the Lab Director. It's always been questioned what he knows about Investigations from the moment he was appointed Director. One of the few agencies of it's kind that doesn't record or Video tape their interviews with witnesses or suspects in any of their investigations. Apparently doesn't want anyone to know the
true questions asked or answers given during their interviews.

Agents are mostly promoted from the Highway Patrol or the old Highway Dept scales and weights sections. Neither group of which has had very much Experience or training in the type investigations the TBI is called on to take charge of. Poor and shaky testimony is given often by these agents in actual trials. Public and Administration should know more about all this.

@P. (u) Wilson: I offer information and interesting news, you call me names. Name calling and character assassination - hallmarks of a liberal.

Re: “Is There Really That Large a Market of Men Who Are Afraid They're Bad in Bed?

Whatever, Gast. I could post stuff that reflects my attitudes all day and you'd never admit to "learning something from outside your box." Thanks for alerting me to a fairly interesting article, but what I was saying previously is that I'm not going to waste my time plowing through all the vitriol you, Bobs and others spout on the off chance that I'll learn anything valuable from it. I don't have infinite time and among the many people who think differently from me, there are folks who are far more interesting and thoughtful than sputtering jerks like you. I also don't have infinite time for responses like this one, which is why I resolve now and again to avoid them. Wish I had more willpower.

Re: “Kermit Gosnell Doesn't Prove Your Abortion Point. Yours Either.

"liberal death cult"? Are they the ones who lied about WMD's and got us involved in Iraq? How about the ones who completely ignored New Orleans during and after Katrina? Oh, you must mean the ones whose push for deregulation in Texas enabled that fertilizer plant to explode! Kinda hard to pull out just which of the many................WAIT; those were conservative GOPhers and Teabaggers! Hmmmmmm..........
