Everyone should keep in mind that Kathryn Bowers is a close associate of Harold Ford Jrs family.

Someone should ask Harold Ford Jr if he supports this extremely sick and deranged movie that shows an actor playing President Bush being assasinated. The movie was made by a bunch of his fellow liberals. Can you imagine if FOX had made a movie showing Clinton being gunned down. Why the NY Times,CBS,NBC, ABC etc...would be calling for Roger Ailes to be sent to prison for life for making such a piece of trash.

allen, please don't show your ignorance. Its a British film that's debuting in Toronto.

Nobody from the Times, ABC, CBS, CNN, or any other American network is condoning this film. Its not even playing in the US so all this crap about it being from "fellow liberals" is just that... crap...

Spew your nonsense somewhere else...

Daily Dose for September 01, 2006

Daily Dose

Resigning Bowers Get DUI -- It was a rough week for resigning State Sen. Kathryn Bowers. Memphis police charged state Sen. Kathryn Bowers with DUI, reckless driving and failure to maintain control of her vehicle following a traffic collision Thursday afternoon. She side-swipped a UPS truck after announcing her resignation from the State Senate on Monday. Bowers was one of the legislators indicted in Operation Tennessee Waltz. With Bowers resignation, the Shelby Co. Democratic Party will select a nominee to fill her place on the November ballot.

Ford, Bryson Want More Debates -- Democratic Senate nominee Harold Ford, Jr. and Republican Gubernatorial nominee Jim Bryson both want more debates with their general election opponents Bob Corker and Phil Bredesen respectively, according to Tom Humphrey. The Gubernatorial nominees will face off in Memphis, Knoxville, and Nashville, while the Senate candidates will debate in Chattanooga in East TN rather than Knoxville.

Local Briefs -- Shelby Co. swears in new school board members today. Among the topics new members must familarize themselves are rezoning and repairs to school buildings.

Knox Co. continues to debate its own charter. A charter review commission setup by Knox Co. Mayor Mike Ragsdale has taken exception with the County Law Directors office, who will be arguing before the State Supreme Court that term limits should apply to all officers except 'constiutional' officers of the county including the sheriff, trustee, register of deeds, property assessor and county clerk.

In Davidson Co., the state Select Oversight Committee on Corrections is prepared to drop its investigation into whether $2.5 million in payments to Metro’s corrections consultant, Don Stoughton, were made improperly. The committee began its inquiry into the Stoughton contract a few months ago, shortly after the state proposed granting Metro an additional $10 million to expand the city’s prisoner capacity at the Metro Detention Facility in Antioch, which lead some legislators to question what they received in returned for the $2.5 M distributed to the consultants, which ended up being a plan for Metro's prision expansion, but no plan for the state.
