This story has gotten no play outside of some mention on Fox news channel and locally in Tennessee. If it were a Republican it would be national news, and we all now it. A state Senator taking huge bribes from FBI undercover agents, is big news if it's a conservative Republican, but since it's a black democrat you can hear crickets chirp in the national newsrooms.

This is what I love about FReerepublic, they can't hide the news from the people anymore. Too many eyes and ears are keeping tabs and reporting to the Internet. That's why the MSM hate us with a passion.

Isn't his kid in the U.S. House and considered a rising star of the Democrat Party? Wouldn't that fact alone make it a national story?
