Every Tennessean Should Have a Say

January 23rd, 2008 · 2 Comments

Cross-posted from Blue Collar Muse.

Hey Haynes, who you calling an “extremist”?

January 22nd, 2008 · No Comments

State Senator Joe Haynes (Democrat from Nashville) issued a press release today calling the Senators sponsoring SJR-127 “extremists.” He also called the senators “out of touch with the opinion of a majority of Tennesseans.” Hmmm.
