Jones remains a leader of the Southern National Conference, a group that wants “Southern State governments creatively solving our own problems without interference or dictates from sources outside our respective States.”

Well then, Reverend, I guess ya’ll won’t be needing any of those nasty Yankee dollars from the Federal government any longer, eh?

Blackburn: That was more than a decade ago, and since then he has gone full frontal crackpot. Me, I am only partial crackpot - but should be Tennessee’s official Senatorial partial crackpot.

A Republican racist named “Blackburn.” How ironic.

They are two peas on a reprehensible pod.

Christian home-school program… …slavery was abhorrent it was “basically cradle to grave security”

The article is just full of his many nuggets of wisdom. Friends since 1979 but Marsha hardly knew him. Probably wouldn’t recognize him if she saw him. Low level pastor. Didn’t know about his strong secessionist views. He was just a volunteer.

I can’t keep up with all the quitting… It’s like standing in a town square during an earthquake and watching the buildings collapse all around you.

So much quitting, that you’ll get tired quitting.

On second though, no we won’t.

“the League began making the turn towards hardline militancy as early as 2008.”

Curious timing, no?

'Blackburn, who in her Senate campaign launch video declares she’s “politically incorrect — and proud of it” ’

Politically incorrect, IMHO, doesn’t give you license to be an A$$hole. Sorry Marsha, the GOP has been blowing that tired dog whistle for years.

Marsha should resign. Now. She is a disgrace to the USA and to her oath.

I can understand Marsha Blackburn being a Representative as a sort of counterpart of NC’s Ginny Foxx and VA’s Dave Brat. But surely Tennessee must have some standards for the people they send to the Senate. I mean, I can understand Marsha representing a rural district in Tennessee, and I’m sure she is a true representative of the majority of the population of her district, but the Senate is the representative of the states in the federal government. Surely it deserves something better than a backwoods politician. After all, as a state Tennessee is in the big time now – they have an NFL team.

She quotes, apparently, Andrew Jackson, as saying that “One man with courage makes a majority.” Except that he apparently never said it.

Those who learn fake history are doomed to repeat it.

As lily white an advertisement as I have ever seen.

Almost too much to wish for.

But crossing my fingers that it is, in fact, true.

These mooks need ‘cradle to grave security’ in a Federal pen.

I remember when Al Gore was a Senator from Tennessee. What happened between now and then?
