This is the 1st I've seen of Tennessee joining the sovereignty bandwagon. Thanks to Rep. Susan Lynn for introducing it on 18 February 2009.

Good. Though don’t count on Colorado. We are a very blue state anymore.

The media is purposefully absent on telling the American people the truth about what is going on.

Welcome aboard, Susan Lynn. However, this will get no attention on television or radio unless such a resolution is passed by a State Legislature.

Beautiful. I wrote an email to my Governor in NC asking them to follow SC’s lead. Think I’ll send her another email about what they are doing in TN.

I agree. Hopefully there may be something closer to the Knoxville area for East Tennesseans to get to. Nashville is just too far for me in the SE corner.

I met with MHGinTN for lunch today. We started planning a picnic for mid April. He has a really nice place with a shelter etc near Boone’s Creek. Your name is on the ping list.

Forget the MSM. We’ll be sitting holding the bag if we think they’re anything to count on as far as the truth is concerned. . and that’s encouraging to hear about Tennessee, which went Republican - even counties that are ALWAYS yellow dog Democrat didn’t go for “O”. I’d like to move over east into the areas that ALWAYS go Conservative, but MIL is going on 86 and totally bound hand and foot to the southern middle TN area. My husband is very emotionally attached to that area as well, but it goes Democrat usually and isn’t likely to go Conservative like they did this election with “O” running. We live where we work, but that county usually goes for Democrats like Clinton, not realizing that the Clintonistas paved the way for “O”.

Thanks for the invite. If i find a way up I may stop in but Boones Creek is still 4 hours from me. I’m an hour east of Chattanooga.

I heard Susan Lyn (and I am proud to say that she is my rep) on Ralph Bristol this morning talking about it.

I knew Susan and her husband from the West Wilson county Republicans since before she ran for the legislature. They are good people.

I’m proud of her also. The conservatives should be all over this. I will guess alot of support will come in from the reps in E. TN and good support from middle TN.
