We'll have a new governor in two years. And Senator Haslam two years later.

He's a weasel.
Funny thing about his gas tax is that he said it would be offset by lowering taxes in other areas, so don't be alarmed. What's the point of raising a tax if you're going to lower others? Sounds like he's just trying to benefit his buddies. |

I'm certain this money will stay in a lock box and go to nothing but roads just like the .10 they put on years ago did

And to think, that city parks carry bill that failed to pass a couple years ago because it would be too expensive to take down the signs could've been fixed by a little increase in the gas tax.

Might have governor Corker and Senator Haslam in '19...Haslam appoints place holder, (maybe himself) and then runs for the seat, McNally gets to play governor for the year and Ramsey gets a further stick in the eye, Corker demits and runs for governor... - OS |

Sorry to go off topic kinda but we do need to increase the gas tax. We also need for state pen prisoners to start growing their own food again instead of BUYING meals from political 'friends'. This started under Boss Hog McWhertor (sp?) when he did away with all the farms. We still have most of the farms away from Nashville. Just not all the tractors and food processing equipment. Be nice to have the state dairy herd back also. The prisoners ate better and were more peaceful when we had them. State pen farms fed ALL the prisons, Juvenile facilities, and Various LEO schools. They also fed the State School for the Blind and all the various mental institutions like Moccasin Bend and Central State before its land was sold off to various political 'friends'. This state pisses away vast sums to politicians and their friends of BOTH parties. |

Politicians never have enough money to spend when it is not their money. They always come up with new ways to spend other people's money in order to buy votes.

As far as firearm stuff, we've had pretty much equal success with Dem controlled legislatures as Republican ones. The current run of the Republican super-majority has pretty much sucked in that regard, and a few of the most powerful Republicans have carried on indistinguishable from Dems. The officially full tilt bozo crazy leftism of the national Democratic Party has borne little resemblance to state electees from the TN Dem party, and the elected Republicans in Nashville as a whole haven't been much different either. - OS |

I don't know where or how you gathered this bit of thought, but it's wholly incorrect. Memphis, Nashville & other areas have Dims that make Hitlery look like Pat Buchanon. Now, had you said rural Dims were like conservative Dims, then that would be accurate. |
