Never mentions party in the article. We all know what that means.

The Lesson: If anybody runs for Mayor in your town with the last name Barry, stay FAR, FAR AWAY!

Now seeing this from NewsChannel 5.

“Breaking: Nashville Mayor Megan Barry has just pled guilty to felony theft over $10,000. This is in relation to her affair with her former bodyguard.”

She’s resigning? Gee, I thought being an elected Democrat meant affairs were one of the perks of office (for Dems. Repubs are hounded from office...).

Technically mayoral candidates in Nashville do not run with a party affiliation.

But yeah, she’s a HUGE Democrat. A California lefty.

I think the first name of “Barry” might also apply if we go by the last President :)

Whoever would expect an elected official would be held accountable for their legal transgressions?

The new Mayor will be David Briley and the Vice Mayor will be Sheri Weiner.
Ms. Weiner was one of the Congresswomen on the committee investigating Nashville Mayor Megan Barry.
As you know, Megan Barry scandal involved a weiner.

Flashback, 30 years ago, and Nashville had a Mayor, named Bill Boner.

The jokes, sometimes, write themselves.

David Briley’s grandfather was the first mayor of Nashville’s new “metropolitan” government in the 1960s.

So, they’re letting her off the hook for ‘stepping down’...w/ all perks/bennies intact.

Damn, what felony can *I* be accused of and skate by terminating my job??

‘Justice’ in this county is Schiff.

Is she any relation to the late Marion Barry, the former sleezebag crackhead mayor of D.C.?
