Rep. Rob Briley: registered Democrat and a state elected leader in the legislature + “fled the scene of an accident” + “member of the House Ethics Committee and played a central role in shaping ethics legislation that was enacted by the General Assembly last year”.
How can there be anything wrong in that equation; Ted Kennedy has been getting away with worse at the national level for years? Certainly, with their excuses for red-nose Ted, the Democrats have no basis to treat Briley with any less “respect”.
Well my, my my..
He’ll go into Rehap like the doper Kennedy and when he comes out ,The Dems will give him a Standing O.
Ping for Grammy.
How’ve been been doing Volunteer? Long time since I talked with you.Hope all is well.
If he was that drunk and driving 100 mph, then reckless endangerment charges should be brought as well. On one hand Wilson County is a bad place to get yourself in a criminal fix. On the other hand he is well connected politically, and the Wilson County “hillbilly mafia” may gain some political chits over seeing that he gets an easy ride.
Bingo.
You’ve got that right, Dems can beat their children, kill their dates, cheat on their wives, steel from anything and everyone and still be let to stay in office.
Why don’t Republicans howl like mad when dems do this b.s. like dems do when Repubs do it?
Leaving the scene of an accident - not to mention the DUI part - is a serious criminal offense in most states. This would get your average schlub a significant jail sentence.
Let’s see what happens to this idiot.
I live in Gallatin and listened to the chase of this
`Rat on the scanner yesterday,remember that square,he
went the wrong direction around it,left the cops after
that for a while till county picked it up.
Resign, a Rat does`t have that much honor. He`ll just go
back in rehab.
Be series. He won’t resign. He won’t be removed. He’s a Democrat.
Great to hear from you! Sounds like things down in TN are not boring these days!
I am pulling up stakes at the end of the month and moving to the North Woods of WI. I expect I am actually going to see snow this year.
How are you doing???
My wife taught in Gallatin for about a year at Vol State's campus there. Nice area.
As good as Tennesse does in choosing people like Fred, unfortunately, when we pick a Dem, we pick a real winner (this guy, Algore, Ford... and on and on and on) Someday, we will really make it into a Republican state.
In the meantime, I am well. Spent the last 2 weeks up to my elbows in sugar. Finally got some rain!!
He and Ophelia Ford should get together. They both have the same problem. They could take their act on the road. On second thought, they’d better not. Too many innocent people out there that could meet an untimely end.
It’s a good thing he didn’t kill somebody, but if he had, the Democrats would’ve named a Tennessee highway after him:

I had to look up the guy’s party affiliation. ;)
Got some rain today, the first we’ve had all summer practicially (except one day we got about four drops).
Everything is dried up here.
Also, been trying to get rid of spyware on my computer. I finally got Spywarebot, and I think it’s worked.
Don’t work too hard!!!
Seems like the Dem’s are improving over the years.
At least now when they get drunk, drive recklessly and flee the scene of an accident no one ends up drowned.
Unfortunately, this turd will probably end up with a suspended sentance like u-boat commander Teddy.
better words were never spoken... think Ford family from Memphis!!!
I live in Dekalb County and I am just now hearing of this....Am not able to listen to our local talk radio because school started in Aug.
