Rep. Stacey Campfield just stopped by the gritty Legislative Plaza pressroom to give his thoughts on Speaker Kent Williams' return to the House Republican caucus. These comments, Campfield assured us, were pre-approved by none other than GOP leader Jason Mumpower. He has stuck duct tape across Campfield's mouth this session but will occasionally allow him to speak to reporters. According to reports, House Republicans overwhelmingly favored letting Williams attend their caucuses again. But Campfield says a majority didn't actually vote to re-admit the speaker. "He did not receive a constitutional majority," Campfield says, but the caucus decided to let him in anyway because "that's the way it was going." Some lawmakers wouldn't vote and some weren't at the little private dinner party when the vote was taken, Campfield says. Whatever. More from the crazy representative from Knoxville:
"Kent was trying to drive a wedge in our caucus. It got to the point where people who hated him just said, 'Let him in because we're not able to talk about what we're doing.' I don't think anybody spoke glowingly of him the whole time. Almost every single member of the caucus spoke and I never heard anything glowing or loving about him. All I heard was, 'He's dividing our caucus and he's tearing us apart. We need to move forward and talk about our agenda.' Hopefully, now we're back to being 49 and Kent."

Has everyone in Tennessee politics lost his everloving mind? I've never seen a bigger bunch of idiots in my life.

It does seem they are especially crazy this year. don't know who is worse Campfield, Mumpower, Kelsey or who. Oh well maybe they won't do us too much harm since they are so busy being wack-a-doos.

Woods I don't get where you think Stacey Campfield is "crazy." Is it because Rob Briley thinks so? Or are you playing to the spineless commentors here, who don't have the courage, to leave their real names.
Obviously, it's your blog and you can portray Campfield anyway you like but if you are reporting the news, (which is implied by the publication's agenda) this same State Rep. today passed through a House committee the first anti-cuckolding / paternity fraud legislation.
That's not so crazy, in fact, it's common sense to me.

Congratulations to Representative Stacy Campfield for advocating truth in paternity legislation to free paternity fraud victims and their families from the merciless arm of the state.
That all powerful high conflict collection business for Tennessee consists of the family court, child support enforcement and local district attorney / prosecutor.
Perhaps TN will become a state similar to GA, OH, MD and FL with paternity fraud legislation on the books.
I have been contacted by many TN paternity fraud victims and their wives, girlfriends that are seeking to hold the biological parents responsible for their own child.
DNA testing at birth and before a child support order could be issued whenever a man or teenage boy was alleged to be the biological father would yield the truth.
Who's afraid of the truth? Answer, those who do not want the truth to be known where the husband or boyfriend is not father as claimed.
Think about this ... only the paternity fraud victims faces jail, destruction of credit, livelihood and loss of assets. Why would anyone try to get away?
Google the words 'paternity fraud' and see videos of paternity fraud victims that want to live free in America -- not enslaved to the state for revenue purposes.
God bless Rep. Campfield and everyone that assisted.
