No more free meals

Politicians in Nashville are running for cover and now attempting to take on the look of Father Dowling. Pure of heart with no corruption in their lives. I don’t buy it for a second,.

At least a few Metro Council members are losing their appetite for free meals provided before council meetings by unions, developers and others.
Councilman Michael Craddock of Madison sent an e-mail about two weeks ago to his colleagues, telling them he would no longer dine on council nights at the expense of those who sometimes want to curry favor.
Some, including Councilman Jim Gotto of Hermitage, have agreed to do the same

Sorry Mr. Politician, but dusting the cookie crumbs from your hands does not remove the fact that you enjoyed the cookies while you had them.

    In 2004, lobbyists reported $249,000 in donations to state legislators. PACs reported $4,950,000 in donations. Individual donations likely exceeded $10,000,000.

    The main difference between the sting and what normally goes in is that in the sting, the bribe payers didn’t have to worry about getting caught.

    Was it really so hard take down John Ford that they had to go to all the trouble of creating a fake company?

    I do respect the fact that he sent the email TWO weeks ago before the troubles in the legislature.

    The company was not to set up Ford alone. They made it big and and threw out some crumbs. They then simply waited to see who would bite. Ford and others bit.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
