Apparently you can take District 29 away from a Ford, but you can't take the Fords away from District 29.

The man was forced out of office, basically, because he took bribes as a state senator (Read about Operation Tennessee Waltz here. So what does the district do? Why, elect his SISTER! The difference was only 12 votes. Who knows? Maybe she cheated.

I could have said the same thing re: the 2000 election when Florida's Katherine Harris gave Bush the win by not counting every vote. Guess what goes around comes around. May God have mercy on our city's soul.

Are we really surprised by this? Haven't we known all along that the "insurgents" are just Al Quaeda?

Parents protest Georgia school closures

Quote:

Hundreds of thousands of Georgia children got a break from classes Monday after Gov. Sonny Perdue asked schools to close for two days as a hedge against possible fuel shortages, leaving many parents struggling to arrange child care.

We are in a sad state of affairs when states have to close schools to conserve energy. To me, education should be the PRIORITY.

Here in Memphis, some girl's been arrested on 1st degree murder charges for stabbing her mother to death, but faked a 9-1-1 call months ago. http://www.wmcstations.com/Global/story.asp?S=3918980

If convicted, though, she could still get out on parole.
