"I'm just trying to rack my brain, and don't recall who would have told me or where I would have gotten that. I don't recall. But if Stacey says I did, then obviously I did. I'm confirming that if he says it, I must have."The University of Tennessee wants to sell the president's mansion to save money. ... The Supreme Court grants a killer a new review of his death sentence. ... The bill limiting driver's license exams to five languages fails in a House subcommittee. ... The bill closing handgun permit records appears headed for floor votes next week. ... AT&T deregulation clears House Finance Committee. ... Jackson Baker on the Democratic establishment's dissing of Chip Forrester:
Something had to give, and in the end it was the Chipper. The new arrangement makes him a de facto auxiliary to the Big Boys, who will run the state party according to their wont. Their governing philosophy was perhaps best expressed by a statement from state Representative John Litz, a Morriston Democrat who achieved some clout of his own this year as one of the brokers of the Democratic ploy that resulted in the election of maverick Republican Kent Williams as Speaker of the state House. Said Litz, by way of approving the terms of the "truce": "I don't think the Tennessee Democratic Party that I'm a part of is like a California Democrat. We're not baby-killing, gun-stealing tree huggers."

Campfield, however, published the rumors, turning run-of-the-mill slanderous gossip into outright libel.
Doesn't Campfield carry on about personal responsibility and accountability? Slumlord, and now scumbag.

Hurray!Steve Cohen, may the best man win. In which I'm pretty sure that he will. He is an awesome guy with the skills I like to see in a leader. Willie okay, you are washed up now. And I'm pretty sick of the gangster profile or image you are portraying. I don't think it is cute, never did. Have you ever considered retiring. I think it is a good time for you to enjoy the rest of your life. I do appreciate what you have done thus far, but I see greater and better potential in Congressman Cohen. It's like move over bacon and slide in with the LEAN MACHINE-> Steve COHEN.The man.
Peace & Love
