It would be a dem from Memphis! My sister lives in the burbs, loves to regale me with tales of chicanery in the Memphis political system. It may well be the Chicago of TN.

I couldn’t really tell why he threw the guy out, it was hard to understand what they were all saying.

The camera man was white cohen’s black that must mean cohen is a racist. Let me get my naacp racist guide out and check....hmmm, nope. He would be a racist if he were white and the cameraman was black.

Well, can’t blame him except that he kept the other cameramen in the house. I wouldn’t let ANY cameraman in my house in the first place. Then again, I am not a politician.

I lived in Memphis for a while. used to be a great city. Now its King Willie’s personal domain and it is run about as well as DC or Detroit. I ran as fast as i could after 4 murders within a mile from my place, which happened to be right next to the Fed Ex World HQs.

Unfortunately, the only thing worth seeing in Memphis is Beale St., The Peabody and the BBQ. Other than that, the city itself has turned into a cesspool and it is expanding past Germantown and Collierville.

Sad. Truly sad.

Apparently this was a press conference that Cohen inveited the cameras to.. but he didn’t like THAT PARTICULAR cameraman... perhaps he was asking questions that were too hard or too important??

It doesn’t matter what the reason is. If I tell you to leave my house, you will leave my house.
