Last week I wrote about the plight of Nashville’s Joy Ford, the country’s latest victim of Eminent Domain abuse by government. Nashville’s Metropolitan Development and Housing Agency (MDHA) has begun legal proceedings under Eminent Domain to condemn and seize Joy’s business. It has prospered at the head of Music Row for almost 30 […]

Will the Circle be Unbroken, Part I
July 1st, 2008 · 2 Comments
What Circle? 23 Music Circle East - Nashville, TN to be precise. And broken may be the kindest way to describe what the owner of the business at that address faces. Shattered, decimated, mercilessly hounded into oblivion all come to mind to describe what Joy Ford, owner of Country International Records (CIR), […]

‘”The American people voted to restore integrity and honesty in Washington, D.C., and the Democrats intend to lead the most honest, most open and most ethical Congress in history.”
The emphasis needs to be placed on the word “intend”. At […]

May 30th, 2008 · No Comments
U.S. District Judge Robert L. Echols issued his ruling yesterday on the ACLU vs. Wilson County Schools (aka Lakeview Elementary). The Tennessean headlined their story this way:
Prayer group can’t get special access at school

Mike Williams (I-Maynardville) joined all Republican senators in voting not to bypass the Government Operations committee and bring Wilder’s bill directly to the floor of the senate.
What […]

April 3rd, 2008 · No Comments
Well, it appears the infamous Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled “that a roommate-finding site cannot require users to disclose their sexual orientation, a U.S. appeals court ruled on Thursday, in the latest skirmish over whether anti-discrimination rules apply to the Web.”

Last Sunday six people were brutally slain in Memphis. And the suspect just got out of prison FOR MURDER! He should never have been allowed out of prison in the first place and now six more people are dead and three children are in the hospital. The attacker, Jessie L. Dotson, 33, went to his […]
