Lobbyist? Can Jimmy say conflict of interest?
Maybe she was lobbying to rub out a competing lobbyist?
Then again, maybe she was sexually attracted to young boys.
I have mostly weaned myself from Mikie since moving to the hills. He is all Hellfire and Brimstone when firing up the troops, but cannot deal, one-on-one, with Jr., Willie, Kirk, or any other of the offenders.
Rush's term "Show Prep" is never more relevant than the few occasions that I tune Fleming in. He has deteriorated into a daily rehash of Rush, Hannity, and -- I suspect -- whatever pearls he can pick up on FR. I wish I knew his username, ha.
I wish Fleming, or someone with a voice, would call for renaming or relocating Tom Lee Park, The Civil Rights Museum, and several other black-history memorials in the face of the clamor by race-baiters to rename parks commemorating Civil War history.
At the least, he could try to redirect the conversation to the real problems that cesspool of a city is faced with. I'm sure Desoto, Fayette, and Tipton county officials hope the race for the border continues, though. It will not be too long until all the hard-working, tax-paying folks will have abandoned the city to its ultimate fate, and that will be a good thing.
What a boon the Memphrica politicians are for neighboring counties; who needs a Chamber of Commerce when Willie, et.al., are doing their work for them?
During the April debate on the major ethics bill approved this year -- prohibiting state and local officials from paid consulting with businesses doing or seeking to do business with the government they represent -- Shaw condemned the bill as "bad legislation" and assailed the media for focusing on ethics issues.
As anyone can see, these and most politicians don't know the difference between being moral and immoral, what's right and what's wrong, and what ethics really stands for. I believe and has been said that the longer a person stays in public office, they loose site of what is really right and wrong because they have been looking at the grey too long. That is one of the main reasons that ALL public offices should have term limits.
I've also noted, with sadness, the propensity for Mike to fold when he has one of these slimeballs on.
He's the RATS water carrier. Notice the Tennessean had a different tone to their article...called shame on lois deberry. But not the Commie Appeal.
"We would, but the grandkids have us locked in."
LOL! I know the feeling.
"I would bet the farm that Jimmy is in there somewhere, or at least his wife."
Let's not leave Dumbquist out of the mix, either. He may nopt be Tennessee "Waltzing", but I wouldn't be surprised if was dancing to another tune in the near future.
These investigations - starting with Rep. Ronnie Davis three years ago, have renewed my faith in the system.
