Lobbyists get seats at table as senators debate ethics
Newspaper in Nashville | 4/5/05 | TRENT SEIBERT

The puppetmasters came out from behind the curtain yesterday and were given a seat at the meeting where ethics reform was being debated in a Tennesse General Assembly committee. Not only were the lobbyists given a seat in the committee, they actually argued AGAINST ethics reform and apparently the 'Rats in the state Senate have no problem. The 'Rats voted as they were commanded by their puppetmaster and killed the bill.

Mind you, that the REPUBLICANS won control of the state Senate for the first time ever last year but TWO RINO's defected and voted for a 'Rat to be speaker or else the GOP would have been in charge of this meeting.

As per the complaint, only THIS LINK is posted.

Always watch your legislatures actions.

We should have learned this from Terri's situation.
