      <![CDATA[Sure Liz, like Nashville hasn't ever, or wouldn't do exactly the same thing if the roles were reversed....and you wouldn't shed one tear over it, either. Grow up.

      <![CDATA[So judging by the... well judgmental tone of your post, I will assume that your "research" found that Nashville didn't do the same things to Toronto, New Orleans, etc. I mean if you were posting such scathing words at other cities then it MUST be because Nashville has NEVER done the exact some thing. <br>
<br>
Anyways, all they did was take some business away from places that couldn't accommodate them.

      <![CDATA[Ah, Liz, I was with you until you called the Arizona situation "anti-immigrant buffoonery." The buffoonery is debatable, but the AZ lawmakers are certainly not anti-immigrant, they're simply anti-ILLEGAL immigrant.

      <![CDATA[So Butch is crying that Vegas would lure away a convention<br>
from their great friend Nashville. The CVB over hipes every<br>
event they do get and now wants to over hipe what they<br>
might be losing.
