2006 WAS GREAT FUN

A NEW YEAR!


If you get a second dash over to Media Report (hit my profile and click on it) some pictures of a small Knoxville radio reunion show on AM 1180 this week will be up Sunday (12 31 06) night. Included in the gossip and remembrances of old radio "daze" there is an inside report on the now famous Eddy Beacon Bank Robbery, don't miss it!

Looking back at 2006 my favorite story was Barbaro. I saw him pull up in the Derby, and then later followed the coverage of him being moved to the hospital. Over the next few weeks everyone from the docs to the fans had him in the ground, but Barbaro fooled everyone. It is both odd and sad that while the liberals are sobbing over the neck tie party given to SoDamnInsane (check it out, it will make you throw up
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x3034002) this great Champion's victory over death is going unreported by the drive by media.

Across the river the stories that made me laugh the most were all political; bless their hearts Knoxville just has SO much fun around election time. Remember the tempest in the tea pot blended up by Da Bean with her interview of the former rogue politico now reportedly hiding in a cave north of Bristol? A giant three part story that was founded on a source with the credibility of Clinton (I did NOT have sex with…) and fueled by the fire of liberal scribe who never read the rule about having two or more sources before you touch off your cannons. The positive side of the story was its literary value, granted at this point most if not all of it is under the heading of fiction. We all LOVED the threads of cloudy assumptions that the star of the canard has yet to return to Knoxville to back up. Sprinkle in the other stories about the shooting at a candidate (still under intense but quiet investigation) and the near gun play of an elected official and you have a political year rivaled only by the long dead Cas Walker.

In Blount County we have grown our downtown, seen Alcoa develop a baby "Turkey Creek", and celebrated two high school state football champions. There are tons of other great things just about to surface in Knoxville's largest suburb but to mention them would just give more folks the idea that Pell Parkway is the road to heaven and move on over. We love you guys visiting, but often you bring YANKEES when your tribe moves in mass into our county! Bless their hearts not only are more than a few of them democrats, all of them just don't get it. Come visit and spend money, but keep voting in KNOXVILLE! Thanks and have a heck of a 2007.

SANTA WEEK!!!!!!!

Santa WEEK!

Is it as good as it was when you were a kid or is it BETTER?
Ponder that in your heart and then drop a note with your thoughts either in the comments, or e mail them to me at wjonair1@aol.com.


I sure know it is different. A quick glance at the way we sing about the season lets you know this ain't your carols sung by a choir holiday anymore. Back in 1993 my favorite new Christmas singer, Bob Rivers released (or some say let escape) a seasonal record on Atlantic called I AM SANTA CLAUSE. Tunes on this now family favorite include:

WALKIN 'ROUND IN WOMEN'S UNDERWEAR (tune of Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree)
I CAME UPON A ROADKILL DEAR
TEDDY THE RED-NOSED SENATOR
THE UNDER TREE WORLD OF JACQUES COUSTEAU
And a host of other fine renderings.

In 1997 Rivers let another CD out of the pit called Bob Rivers presents MORE TWISTED CHRISTMAS. Featuring such heart warming tunes as:
It's THE MOST FATTENING TIME OF THE YEAR
SLED ZEPPELIN
YELLOW SNOW
THERE'S A SANTA WHO LOOKS A LOT LIKE ELVIS
BUTTCRACKER SUITE
HEY YOU GET OFF MY HOUSE
RUMMY ROCKER BOY
and a few more selections to mellow your Yule Log.

Both CDs are on Atlantic and I am sure if you are a down loader of music you can find them this time of year.

The upside to Christmas is it only comes once a year and the down side is it still only comes once a year. An old tune once talked about keeping Christmas all year long, good or bad? Again, discuss and let me know.

Things I always miss about this time of the year when February rolls around are Claxton Fruit Cakes (found at a gas station near you), TV Christmas shows including the day time drama's week long parties, and the twenty four hour cable channels that go all holiday movies. Check out the Media Report (as always go to my profile and click) for more on what is on when. Last but not least I really miss those five inches of advertising inserts in the local rag that are all done on slick paper designed to make them fall into the street or yard the second you try to find the Local section when you open the thing up.

Key to this time of the year is it is what you make it so enjoy the eggnog, eat way too much, dance alone at the office party, and start getting excited about 2007.

Merry Christmas!!

Good and Odd thoughts!

Don't forget to dash over to the media report (just click my profile and then hit the link) it updates every Sunday evening. This week there is a picture featuring the founder of the Fulton High School radio/media department and some students. As always if you can NAME anyone in the shot you win nothing!

I just got something from a regular reader of the column that fits beautifully into the season.
Check this out.

YOU CAN'T STEAL
MY CHRISTMAS

Poem by Sharon Steege


I don't know who they are
Saying I can't greet the crowd
The way that I want to
Can't say CHRISTMAS out loud.


I walk into a business place
See things that I rather not see
But dare I not say CHRISTMAS
And ask for a "holiday" tree.


What happened to freedom of speech
And living in the land of the free
How can they take my CHRISTMAS money
But can't say MERRY CHRISTMAS to me.


Men and women have given their lives
So we could still go free
I wonder how they would feel
At saying "HOLIDAY" TREE.



Earlier this week an e mail showed up featuring a news story on WVLT. Folks I kid you not, THIS made the air!


Kingston Police Looking For Coin Thief
Updated: 12:26 PM Dec 11, 2006


"Kingston, Roane County (WVLT) - Police need your help finding a man they say has found a unique way to steal.
This surveillance video shows the suspect putting a five dollar bill into the automatic change dispenser at "BJ&E" car wash.

The man puts the bill in just far enough to trigger the coin drop, but not far enough to keep the machine from taking the bill.
Police believe he's done it twice to the same machine in the last two months.
They're looking for a white man, with dark hair, a stocky build and he's in his twenties to early thirties.
If you know who this might be, call the Kingston Police Department at 376-2081."


LORD HELP LOCK UP THE CHILDREN AND DOGS AND LOAD THE .12 GAGE! No really, if say this string bandit manages to make the change dispenser let go a full five dollars in quarters and he HIT IT twice in two months..UNLESS he is causing all the coins in the machine to drop... his take is just $10.00 or $2.00 a week? Bless his heart, if he would just tilt the LazyBoy in the den of his single wide I bet he could find that much at HOME!




And you are shocked at WHAT???

THE WASHINGTON TIMES
December 12, 2006


"Democratic campaign operatives pushed newspapers to write about then-Rep. Mark Foley's e-mails to teenage pages in the hope that a scandal would emerge before the midterm elections, according to a House ethics report."

Dream Speech

We are back! Lots of good news over on the media report just hit my profile and click on it to check it out. The pictures were taken the night before the big cold front/wind rolled into our area. They are all from the banks of Little River. It was sunset and the fog was really odd due to the changing pressure.


Last week this great "dream" speech came over the cyber transom. Read it and then send it to all your buds. Do NOT fail to send it to your liberal acquaintances and if any of you can still post on knoxviews.com toss it into that batch of lefties! If you are not a visitor of knoxviews.com better hurry, more than a few folks have told me it is on the skids due to a myriad of problems. I certainly am not saying they are headed under the waves, just what those who hang out in the old city are whispering while they shop for beads and feathers. As I have said in the past I hope the site never fades away, although they are scared of posters outside of their club and they rage against anything GW and the guys do, they are great fun to read!

Here is the dream speech!



WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR ANY U.S. PRESIDENT, DEMOCRAT
OR REPUBLICAN GIVE THE FOLLOWING SPEECH?








My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of the Iraq regime has been
completed.

Since congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our
mission in Iraq is complete.

This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American forces
from Iraq. This action will be complete within 30 days. It is now to begin
the reckoning.

Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries which
have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict. This list is short. The
United Kingdom , Spain , Bulgaria , Australia , and Poland are some of the
countries listed there.

The other list contains everyone not on the first list. Most of the world's
nations are on that list. My press secretary will be distributing copies of
both lists later this evening.

Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those
nations on List 2 ceases immediately and indefinitely. The money saved
during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi
war.

The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world
countries and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption.

Need help with a famine? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France.

In the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money
toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home. On that
note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we will hunt you
down and eliminate you and all your friends from the face of the earth.

Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France, or maybe China.

I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with France,
Germany, and Russia. Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring
from NATO as well. Bon chance, mes amis.

I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN
diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid parking
tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded and
crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this. You creeps
have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or
watch your precious Benzes, Beamers and limos be turned over to some of the
finest chop shops in the world. I love New York

A special note to our neighbors. Canada is on List 2. Since we are likely
to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might want to try not
ticking us off for a change.

Mexico is also on List 2. President Fox and his entire corrupt government
really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple extra tank and
infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to put 'em? Yep,
border security. So start doing something with your oil.

Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty - starting
now.


We are tired of the one-way highway. Immediately, we'll be drilling for oil
in Alaska - which will take care of this country's oil needs for decades to
come. If you're an environmentalist who opposes this decision, I refer you
to List 2 above: pick a country and move there. They care.

It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens.
Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them by saying, "darn tootin."
Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the world
has only earned us the undying enmity of just about everyone on the planet.
It is time to eliminate hunger in America. It is time to eliminate
homelessness in America. It is time to eliminate World Cup Soccer from
America. To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thanks guys. We owe you
and we won't forget. To the nations on List 2, a final thought: You might
want to learn to speak Arabic. God bless America. Thank you and good night.
If you can read this, thank a teacher. If you are reading it in English,
thank a soldier.

WE ARE BACK!

The last two weeks have been more boring than "Sewing Night" on a PBS fund raiser. So we closed the offices, joined hands, and worked as a group to survive Thanksgiving.


Locally the November Nielson numbers kept piling up and the fingernails at the mansion on Broadway keep growing shorter. I wish I knew a quick answer to this viewer shift but the best I can figure is they (the station that used to be number two in local news) are missing the mark in providing the type of coverage viewers want and the other guys are hitting it.

Here are some OLD (like in a week or so back) numbers looking at the news hours only.
wbir wate wvlt

6-7a 6.9 4.2 3.5



6-630p 15.3 9.7 6.1



11-1130p 9.1 1.9 10.92%

Average News Share 49.60% 25.04% 25.36%


Absent from the head to head news numbers is the noon hour because the station that sent these numbers didn't win it. The race at noon is close but because WVLT wins more days than they lose write them in as number one at noon followed by WBIR and then WATE. Also factoring in that noon win for WVLT will change the Average News Share totals pushing WVLT above WATE.

Nationally CBS news is back in the privy but if you look at WVLT locally they are doing much better at 6 p.m. than other CBS stations that have to take the hand off from Katie. As they used to say at the Twin Air at intermission, this thing ain't over yet.


EZ 88.3 FM started their Christmas music before Cracker Barrel had put out their $50.00 black and orange velour sweat shirts with the raised pumpkins and green witches down the sleeves. Not one station in town can match their selection of Ho Ho tunes!

In keeping with the reason for the season let me invite you to check out my favorite link this time of year.

Nationally two stories caused a few noses to twitch. The way to tell if a story is close to being done is when the last of the "I NEED SOME OF THAT HEADLINE" fools jump into the game. One of the above mentioned stories hit the basement Sunday when the AP reported…..
" NEW YORK (AP) -- Comedian Michael Richards said Sunday he did not consider himself a racist, and that he was "shattered" by the comments he made to two young black men during a tirade at a Los Angeles comedy club.
Richards appeared on the Rev.JESSEE JACKSON'S nationally syndicated radio program, "Keep Hope Alive," as a part of a series of apologies for the incident. He said he knew his comments hurt the black community, and hoped to meet with the two men."

Jesse is always there to pull the last bit of flesh from the bone at the end of a story, just what he does. As for Kramer, Lord help son any of us who have tried to stand up and tell a joke have been heckled but you have to be the BIGGER man in those situations. If we knew the heckler and more times than not we did, we would do this. Find a paper White Store bag, empty the litter box in it, put in on their front porch, light it, ring the bell, and run. Or if you didn't have a cat just jump them on the way to their car with a tire iron.

The other story was O.J. The Simpson book saga took another twist when his former sister-in-law, Denise Brown, accused the media company behind the project of trying to buy her family's silence for "millions of dollars."
A spokesman for News Corp., owner of Fox Broadcasting and publisher HarperCollins, confirmed that the company had conversations with representatives of Nicole Brown Simpson's and Ron Goldman's families over the past week and that the families were offered all profits from the planned Simpson book and television show, but he denied that it was hush money.


Can I get a show of hands of those who are over anything that even mentions O.J. or his immediate or extended family? Personally I think he did it and Robert Blake drove the get away limo.

THEY STILL CAN'T GET OVER WE WON!

After our GREAT WIN in Tennessee the staff and management took a few days off at our river side retreat just outside of Maryville on the banks of Pistol Creek.

Reflecting back on the win over a large glass of "southern" sweet tea we started to scratch our heads? A standard practice of the Democrats is to fly in lawyers after any defeat demanding recounts and investigations. The left wing networks told us the week before the election said lawyers and aircraft were all on stand-by, but when Tennessee went for Bob they never dropped in? As they say in the "community" whatsup? Granted Jr. did start a small rumor of fixed machines in his home dang town and he even mentioned the manufacturer by name. Fine then where is Matlock and his team? Never showed? I also noticed in the states where the Republicans took it on the chin not ONE lawyer popped up to contest the numbers? Can we derive from this that when we come in second we show class and style and when they take it in the shorts they do everything from crying to their momma to hiring Dewy, Cheatum, and How to come in and try to get a win? Bless their hearts.


If you are board take a minute and dash over to knoxviews.com. Here you will find a very small but very agitated group of, believe it or not, East Tennessee folks who are still pissed that Jr.bought the big one. If you are a normal Republican and feel the urge to post at knoxviews.com forget it. These folks don't want your thoughts and they sure don't wanta hear anything about our W I N!

Bless their hearts they are just a scary tribe (bet they raise hell over that label) that is scared down to their toes of anyone who works for a living or who votes Republican.

I do encourage you to take a look, just to know WHO we are dealing with in 08. Considering their rage and mentality we should be able to beat them provided we have the right candidate and toss enough gas into their personal fire to help them self destruct.

Here is a note I got on election day that explained Jr. and his kin beautifully. Naturally I didn't run it back then cause I knew Dewey and his group would raise the hated R card, but now that Bob is in and Jr. is asking for $25.00 to come have lunch with him I think we are safe.





Fords have played the race card for all its worth to create their base of power in Shelby County and west Tennessee. They have perfected the art of making money in politics by any means necessary.

Sr, John, Ophelia, and another of Jr's uncles all hold political offices and all have been either caught or investigated on numerous occasions for illegal activities tied to their positions. Great moments in Ford family history include:

--Harold, Sr claiming an election victory as a win over the "blue-eyed devils of east Memphis."
--John pulling a gun on MLG&W workers who were working in the street in front of his house.
--John shooting at truck drivers on the interstate
--John having his wife get in a fight at his office with one of his three girl friends who have children by him.
--Ophelia winning an election after the cemetery votes came in
---John being charged in the bribery scandal that has already resulted in convictions (if his trial is in Memphis, he will get off).
--Sr receiving a loan from the Democratic candidate for governor in every election over the past 20+ years.

As always I will never ask who you are (unlike knoxviews.com), but I do ENCOURAGE you to leave a comment or a thought.

FORD VOTERS LIVE WHERE???

LOOK where the FORD voters live!

11-9-06
Thursday


The Knoxville paper (knoxnews.com) had a front page map highlighting the areas were both the Ford and Corker voters live. If you look at it then it is obvious the Ford people are clustered in a single area while the Corker voters spread out over the entire county. When you really look at the map you can see in places the separation is by single streets, one side of Kingston Pike went Ford while the other went Corker. It really is a fascinating look at where the Republican's are living and also the Democrats. Oh, just for fun which area (the Ford voter side or the Republican side) of the map would you say pays the most taxes, has the lowest rate of unemployment and higher income? Any and all thoughts are appreciated; just toss them into the comment column.

I took my own advice on election night and avoided the network coverage until 10 then I dashed over to the TWO local stations with early news to find out where we stood.

Nationally, the ratings are in and NBC took it on the chin to ABC!

ABC 9,670,000
NBC 7,000,000
CBS 6,310,000
FOXNEWS 3,050,000
CNN 2,963,000
MSNBC 1,926,000

In the cable race I was surprised to see CNN just under FOX. If you follow cable numbers FOX is wiping the floor with CNN, but not on Tuesday evening. Another eye opener was MSNBC, the lost dog of cable news, bumping a bit on the back side of CNN.

I have yet to see any local over nights, but an ABC news win nationally is about as shocking as Vandy beating Georgia…no hold on make that Kentucky beating Georgia….nope that won't work….look I am out of analogies you pick one.

Rummy took it in the shorts yesterday and reports are the Democrats are after a few more. Personally I will miss his work with the press, that short dude had no problem going after them and it was great fun to watch.

The guy that is taking his office is a buddy of GW's dad, former CIA and a member of the Baker team that will be reporting on the war in the near future. New eyes on the sandbox are welcome by GW and if this guy can kick start the Iraq government into securing their cities and protecting their people we just might be able to head back home.
Watch the Democrats snipe at any and all new plans to resolve the situation, it is just their style, and naturally their media will amplify and applaud them in their efforts.

I got an e mail with a break out of the new speaker's history and although these are not my words, there is some truth in the post. Check it out.

Profile on the new speaker of the house of the Democratic Party (socialist) (D) Nancy Pelosi


SCARY


2006 Representative Pelosi supported the interests of the Planned Parenthood 100 percent in 2006.

2005 Representative Pelosi supported the interests of the American Immigration Lawyers Association 100 percent in 20052005

Representative Pelosi supported the interests of the National Committee for an Effective Congress 100 percent in 2005.

2006 Based on lifetime voting records on gun issues and the results of a questionnaire sent to all Congressional candidates in 2006, the National Rifle Association assigned Representative Pelosi a grade of F (with grades ranging from a high of A+ to a low of F).


2003-2004 Representative Pelosi supported the interests of the American Security Council 11 percent in 2003-2004.


2005-2006 Representative Pelosi supported the interests of the American Civil Liberties Union 100 percent in 2005-2006.

2005 Representative Pelosi supported the interests of the Family Research Council 0 percent in 2005

GREAT WIN!

NICE WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11-8-06
Wednesday

Tennessee sent a message yesterday to the country that no amount of outside money or media influence can change the facts. Ford Jr. was one scary kid! This morning our state is being slammed and mocked by the left coast liberal movement and we have to look at it as a giant compliment.

Locally Knoxville voters laughed at the joke of the smear campaign mounted against Stacy Campfield and awarded him a healthy 18-point win in the 18th district. Couple his win with the same sex marriage amendment and you can see the direction of both East Tennessee and the entire state.


The national media is dancing with the Democrats, but in the coming months if these newly elected folks don't produce 08 could be a very big win for the Republican party. Don't expect the media to report their failures which are bound to be many, or comment on their attempts to raise taxes. Just won't happen. They are all joined at the hip. The upside is anyone can track how these newbies vote, keep an eye on them!


Congratulation to those who voted for Corker and for those who went with Ford, bless your heart everyone makes at least one MISTAKE in their life!

NETWORKS PUSH FOR THE DEMS!

The media is in a last ditch stand to twist the election





11-7-06
ELECTION DAY!


VOTE VOTE…and vote!

This morning a cautious national TV news consortium (NBC, CBS, and ABC) were all working over time to twist and fashion the election to their satisfaction.

Tim Russertt (NBC's favorite democratic shill) was saying to watch three states early and if they (they meaning the Democratic Party) were winning then the thing was over and it would be a blood bath for the Republicans. It was obvious his strings were being pulled by the corner offices to try and influence the areas of the country were the voting was still underway. Touting an early (before the majority of the polls close) win for the liberals (Democrats) in their (NBC) mind would cause the Republican voters who had not cast their ballots to stay home.

First listen to the networks, use your head and then go vote. The old style of actually reporting elections and for that matter news is something they laugh about as they pass each other in the halls. Today it is all about creating news and pushing the Democrats while hiding under a thin vale of questionable facts and hack reporting. Locally (Tennessee) NBC was working so hard for Jr.

This morning they started implying a vote CORKER was a racists shot!

Stay focused and vote. If we keep our eye on our state then we will be just fine.

Tonight after you vote try Pay For View, Turner Classic Movies, TV Land, or even The Travel Channel. If you want local results dash over to FOX 43 at 10 P.M. or WBIR.com. Our local stations will be cutting in or running crawls but the giant problem is you run the chance of having to see the networks to get the information. Considering they are dragging out everyone from Tom Brokoff to Dan Rather tonight I would much rather hang until 10 and get the results on FOX 43 and bypass their agenda driven coverage.

Here is one other reason to ditch the networks for coverage.



This year the networks say they are guarding their exit poll results as if they were crown jewels. The results will be delivered to a "quarantine room," access to which will be granted to only two staffers from each network and wire service, who must surrender all cell phones, BlackBerrys and similar devices before entering the room. Only at 5 p.m. will the occupants of the quarantine room be allowed to reveal the exit polls to their bosses. The networks claim to have completely revamped their exit-poll methodology, which in 2004 had surveys in which the results, collected mostly by female graduate students, consistently favored Democrats. The changes will mean the networks will be slower to call the winners. That and the difficulty of adjusting for the large number of absentee ballots could mean a longer night than usual.


Consider turning down the TV to a whisper and either watching the crawl of actual returns on the bottom of the screen or monitoring them on the Internet at sites like RealClearPolitics.com


After you vote today PLEASE drop a note in the comment box and tell us about your experience. How was the crowd, was anyone talking issues, did you have problems with the machines, and be sure to tell us the location.

We have seen the networks fight to move the needle off the economy, LOWER taxes, unemployment, the stock market, and a host of positive things about our country to the single issue of Iraq for this election. The reason was simple, the war is the only issue the Democrats have to stand on, and the sad thing is they have yet to present a plan for either a victory or a resolution to the situation. We can win Tennessee if we vote, that simple, so don't let the weather bother you and DO NOT let what you are seeing on the national TV networks influence you. Vote for Corker, send a message that we believe in what is right for our state and rest with a smile tonight knowing that across the board viewers are abandoning network TV news to the extend NBC announced two weeks ago thousands are about to be fired in attempt to try and recoup their steady drop in revenue!

TOMORROW IS THE DAY!

NBC tried to out SHOUT the Republicans on Meet the Press Sunday but it didn't WORK!

11-6-06
Monday afternoon
ONE MORE DAY!

Yesterday one of the most LEFT SIDED editions of Meet The Press tried continuously to bait, ambush and when that didn't work out SHOUT the Republican panel members, but never got the job done. The show was another example of the desperate attempt by the network (along with CNN, CBS and ABC) to create a last minute push for their favorite party. Thank goodness Elisabeth Dole stood her ground and countered their attacks and miss quotes with facts and grace. The giant up side is there will be no more Sundays before the election, TOMORROW is the day we answer the liberals at the polls!


This morning even CNN (Clinton News Network) was admitting what they described as a slight turn in favor of the republicans. If you are a numbers person dash over http://www.realclearpolitics.com/latestpolls/ Below is a quote from the site.


"We moved this race to Leans Republican yesterday and the recent polling data confirms Corker has now established a material lead heading into the election Tuesday. Over 50% in the RCP Average -- in a Republican leaning state -- means he is looking pretty good."


The Pew Research Center is finding a shift also.


"A nationwide Pew Research Center survey finds voting intentions shifting in the direction of Republican congressional candidates in the final days of the 2006 midterm campaign. The new survey finds a growing percentage of likely voters saying they will vote for GOP candidates. However, the Democrats still hold a 48% to 40% lead among registered voters, and a modest lead of 47%-43% among likely voters."


No matter how good things are looking for Bob we have to get everyone to the polls tomorrow! Remember the FIRST reports of possible machine tampering (smart cards lost or stolen) came in last week from where else?? MEMPHIS! Way too much OUTSIDE money has been spent to elect Jr. for any of us to relax; those northern liberals want this state in their pocket and will do anything to get it.

Please join us at the polls tomorrow and vote for BOB!

Denver is voting Corker

The golden retriever (Denver) who allows us to live with him is having a relaxed weekend in the fall sunshine. He made up his mind to vote for Bob Corker two seconds after reading Harold's voting record.


His close friend,Ms. Molly is still wondering. She likes Corker but is a big TV News dog. She told Denver she can't remember one good thing the network news humans have said about Bob?


Denver explained to her yesterday a bunch of humans who analyze network and even cable news coverage said over 80% of what she is watching is slanted in favor of the democrats! When she got the news she just gave Denver a questioning look, (captured here) followed by a long drink and then requested a Bob Corker sign for her food dish.

Have a great weekend

NICE TRY NBC, but no CIGAR

Harold Ford's presidential candidate has found a very close friend in the national and sadly at times in the local media.

Before 8 this morning the NBC Today Show hit fifth gear in their drive to spin John Kerry's open attack on the American's fighting in Iraq. In an ambush interview a Today host demanded former white house press spokesman Scott McClellan, to swear that John Kerry was only telling a joke when he said those fighting in Iraq were there because they were stupid. In a beautiful response McClellan reminded the Today Show host of Kerry's long record of quotes demeaning Americans serving their country flowing all the way back to 1971. Unfortunately when confronted with the facts, the Today Show slid more to the left by playing a clip of the President commenting on the words spoken by Kerry and then interjecting their opinion that the comments were all politically based and had nothing to do with what the NBC show felt was the truth.

This dog will not hunt. Harold Ford's presidential candidate said what he said, did not apologize within an appropriate time period, and on the seventh attempt at an explanation of the statement chose the "joke" defense.

Yesterday Bob Corker was in Maryville and said "If you like John Kerry, then you will love Harold Ford Jr." The race is becoming clearer as it moves toward next Tuesday. On one side is Jr. "pretending he is something that he is not" and on the other side is Bob Corker.

As the national and at times local media continue to try to turn local races into a mandate on Iraq and our President they are seeing the spin come full circle and bite them in their shorts. If our President is a problem, yours (John Kerry) would have been a disaster, he proved it this week, and no amount of spin will prove it otherwise.

Early voting has been a very REPUBLICAN experience in Tennessee. Yesterday as Bob Corker spoke on the Blount county court house steps the last of twelve thousand early voters stood in line. Driving by I conducted a very scientific and unofficial poll by yelling "CORKER" and giving those in line a thumbs up, EVERYONE said yes and everyone returned the sign. I was braced for another finger out of the crowd but it was obvious the democrats were home scratching the old Kerry For President stickers off their Yugos. Even though the late afternoon voting poll was positive we still have more than a little work to do between now and Tuesday. Please talk to everyone who used to vote but is going to take a pass this time out and remind them of the stakes. Tell they are not alone in their disenchantment of the national and at times local media support of the Democrats and their single vote is worth much more than an opinion spouted by a TV news reader or national chat show talking head.

Thanks for reading the Southern Writer, thanks for passing it on and thank you very much for your comments.

NBC News helping Jr.!

11-2-06
Thursday, Six days to go


LOCALLY, the most watched station for TV news (WBIR) had a live one on one with struggling NBC news reader, Brian Williams late yesterday afternoon. Williams openly said they were moving the NBC Nightly News cast (Thursday evening) to Memphis, reportedly to cover the Jr. Corker race. It was blatantly obvious that Williams was given marching orders by the agenda driven network to get down to Tennessee and do whatever you can to get Jr. a win.

The new NBC anchor tossed the issues out and focused on what he called Corker's "attack" ad, saying "we (NBC news staff) have memorized the lines" inferring the spot had really put Tennessee on the map.

Then when WBIR brought up the subject of Bob Corker putting a very large sum of (personal) money into the election, Brian Williams said "Oh just think what all that money could have done if it had been used to help those in need." At first blush the comment sounded like a typical liberal/Democrat talking point trying to punish the party of the haves for wasting their money on themselves rather than those less fortunate. On a second look it was just a giant flag saying we are here to pull out any and all stops to get Jr. elected! It was obvious WBIR was only a platform for Williams but a great follow up from our local station would have been…"Brian, the infusion of personal money from Bob Corker may be one of his greatest contributions to do good for everyone in his state by beating a man whose party ran John Kerry as their presidential candidate in 04." Naturally the rest of the one on one was filled with welcomes to Tennessee and a reminder to tune into WBIR when Brian holds his nose and brings his campaign/News show into our fly over southern state.

Friday night FOX NEWS will be live from Tennessee, for those who want a report and not a campaign.


After the former Democratic Presidential Candidate, John Kerry, insulted Americans serving on the ground in Iraq yesterday the Associated Press found the seed of his thoughts was planted over thirty years ago when he ran for congress.

Then Kerry said he opposed a volunteer Army because it would be dominated by the underprivileged, be less accountable and be more prone to "the perpetuation of war crimes." This morning Kerry is listening to his party and being very still. Even Hilla Rotting Ham Clinton jumped on Kerry's implosion to slam the lid on his 08 attempt by saying "we don't want a rerun of the 04 race" adding he was wrong in his remarks. Hilla glowed internally, knowing that his "John Dean type outburst" would play very well for her when she runs against him in the presidential primaries. It is fun to watch the Democrats eat their own, two years before they try to take back the people's house.


The last bit of the Kerry debacle came late yesterday when Jr. called for an apology from his former Democratic Presidential Candidate. Here is the REST of the story on Jr's attempt to do the right thing and get his candidate for President to apologize.

Nashville, TN -- In a live interview from Memphis minutes ago on MSNBC, Washington Congressman Harold Ford, when asked, said he will not return the $100,000 John Kerry’s PAC contributed to his campaign, prompting the Corker for Senate campaign to say Ford’s weak call for an apology from Kerry is a hollow gesture.


Today Bob Corker will be in Maryville at 1:30 speaking on the court house steps. Across the state one of Jr's biggest supporters, William Jefferson Clinton will be in Memphis campaigning for Jr. Here is one giant reason Bill Clinton is such a Ford supporter.

When Bill Clinton pardoned 16 members of a terrorist group responsible for 150 bombings and 6 U. S. deaths, the Director of the FBI, Mayor Rudy Giuliani, and the Tennessee Congressional delegation all opposed the pardons. Well, all but one. Guess who? Harold Ford Jr.

Don't forget your last chance to early vote is today. If you still believe in the values of Tennessee and want a man in D.C. who follows in the footsteps of statesmen like Howard Baker then pass this blog on to your friends and remind everyone how important a vote for Bob Corker is!

As always, your thoughts are welcome and will be posted. Thank you for not only reading the blog but forwarding it to those on your e mail list. After the election we will get back to jokes, dog pictures, and whatever is tossed over the cyber transom.

On the national scene the story that has sucked all the air out of the room is Democratic Presidential Candidate (former and future) John Kerry talking about those who serve in Iraq. If you missed it here it is.




At a Democrat campaign rally Kerry said, “You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.”

As anyone can see the words speak for themselves. The first spin out of the Kerry camp was the man was tired when he made the speech. Although the explanation was floated as a trial balloon on ABC radio news, it didn't get off the ground. After going behind closed doors the Kerry handlers called a fast press conference and gave him a caustic short speech filled with everything but an apology.

"I’m not going to be lectured by a stuffed suit White House mouthpiece standing behind a podium, or doughy Rush Limbaugh, who no doubt today will take a break from belittling Michael J. Fox’s Parkinson’s disease to start lying about me just as they have lied about Iraq. It disgusts me that these Republican hacks, who have never worn the uniform of our country, lie and distort so blatantly and carelessly about those who have."

This morning the Today Show drug out Tim Russert to try and toss some water on the flames by alluding that what Kerry said would have zero impact on the way American's would vote next Tuesday. He and the Today Show host agreed that Kerry's response to the speech (see above) showed him as a stronger candidate then in the days when he would not "dignify" the Swift Boat facts with a response.

Even with all the work done by the Today Show, their tiny news channel (MSNBC) dropped the ball when televised radio host Don Imus had Kerry on live to try and swim out of the mess he created. You have to see it to believe it!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZMRecdL_No

The rest of the stories flying out of the Kerry implosion mostly center on Democrats calling his keepers and canceling him from their campaign appearances.




Brucy Braley (A Democratic Congressional candidate from Iowa) says Kerry's recent comments about the Iraq war were inappropriate. Braley is running against Republican Mike Whalen in Iowa's First District congressional race. It's a contest considered to be one of the most competitive House races in the country.
Braley's decision to distance himself from Kerry came as a furor grew from comments Kerry made about the Iraq War during a campaign stop in California on Monday.


The cancellations grew all morning, although Kerry is standing firm on his second or third spin of the story and trying very hard to turn his own words into what he calls an attack by the President.



Locally Ford Jr. is at it again.

After the Memphis Meltdown, where Jr. crashed a Corker campaign event in Memphis his poll numbers started to slide (see CNN "Clinton News Network" for the latest on the race) but apparently those left wingers running his campaign didn't see the cause of the tipping point.

Yesterday Jr. showed up in Corker's home town at yet another Corker event trying to grab both voters and a bit of the media thunder that is now surrounding the leader in the election. Voters are agreeing the facts are catching up to Jr. and he is running out of ways to side step them.

His voting record is open for everyone to see and it sounds much more like a Mass. Democrat than a statesman from Tennessee. The record also shows he has missed many important votes and again when he did push the button the invisible hand of Teddy Kennedy was guiding him.

This is going to be a very important few days for our state. Early voting is closing soon and if you have yet to get out then do it. Those early votes could decide if we elect a man who revitalized Chattanooga, grew up in Tennessee (not D.C.) graduated from UT, created and achieved everything with a personal work ethic and has a great record of LOCAL service to our state. Bob Corker will certainly go to Washington without family members hovering around the big federal wallet and will always have his state and America's needs as his guide.

More posts daily as the news progresses. If you want to jump in you will not be edited or tossed. I will say though, if you take a side and then do not vote you forfeit all credibility so get out there and make your mark for your candidate.

HallOOOOOOOOOweeeen!

OK, if you want to do some scary on line stuff then below the babble are just a few places to FLOAT into!

If you are going to get out, beat on the door and shove the old potato sack in my face then we are ready! All of the crap is wrapped. When I was a kid, (just after Lee surrendered to Grant) I remember going around in Sunset View (my neighborhood) and Mrs. Cruse would ALWAYS have these home dang made POP corn BALLS! Naturally today if a child brings home something like that first Mom tosses it into the radiation detector, then Pop runs in through the X ray unit and THEN the drug/chemical sniffing dawg has a go round. IF it checks out, it is then given to Granddaddy who is watching Everyone Loves Raymond and will eat anything placed in his knobby fingers!

At the bunker we are featuring a mixed bag of name brand candy. All guaranteed to pull a crown off on the second bite, so make sure they all go to the children!

Have a great DAY and if your office encourages everyone to come in costume, I suggest a pint of 101 rum in the parking lot to REALLY get you into the spirit!

Check out the links below, have a wonderful day and remember with all the new advances in shaving it is near impossible to get a blade in an apple anymore.

Remember who Jr. is!

El Rushbo sliced up the now famous Ford Jr. TV spot this afternoon with the skill of Daniel(see the Old Testament)! Like everyone else, he couldn't find a thing racial in the copy but he did point out how it spotlighted Jr's views on everything from his porn dealer contributions to his stand on gun control! Beautiful job!

This afternoon the spot was pulled after MSNBC spent most of yesterday trying to fill buses to head south for another march in Selma. Naturally NBC jumped into the game on their nightly news and this morning The Today Show rolled in the "reported indignation" allegedly painted by the spots reflection of Jr's beliefs.

Kids the key to getting Bob Corker elected has nothing to do with Jr. being first generation kin to the Memphis Political Mafia, or the fact that NBC along with CNN (Clinton News Network) loves the guy. It all hinges on us remembering first that Jr. has been a part of the problem in D.C. for ten years, and second that he has been joined at the hip to Teddy ("When I came back Mary Joe and the car were gone") Kennedy in the D.C. voting process. The few times he did vote it sure didn't reflect the feelings of this state, here check it out! http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/members/f000262/


SO, if you know of folks who are planning on voting early make sure they know the real Jr. Also if you have an elderly family member (got mom right here) and plan on taking them, don't risk a rainy or cold election day where they might not be able to get out. Tomorrow put them in the car and both of you go vote for BOB!

If Ford Jr. wins Tennessee LOSES!

Jr. is slipping!

Jr. is dropping in the polls but not enough to where we can sit back and relax. This is one slick fellow with talking points sharper than Prince Mongo's spear! OK, hold on, before you call me the R word, P.M. is one of my favorite Memphis icons, just Google him for more info. IF P.M. was running I would rent a bus and go on the road with this guy, be he isn't and Jr. is.

What can we do?

E mail everyone who votes and tell them to go early and as Ray Blanton used to say and vote OFTEN! Corker did a great job with Chattanooga so just imagine what a guy like this can do for the entire state! Jr. will say anything, promise anything and then if you elected him he will follow the Ted Kennedy school of voting just like he did in the past. Like that famous Cable Guy said…"I'd rather hunt with Chaney than ride with Kennedy!"

Pictures are mostly of the National Park, some might be from the Blount County side, and all of them remind us why the Yankees all wanta move here and why we need to keep folks like Jr. out of Washington!

FORD JR IS NOT THE WAY

Look at these great pictures of our state and then think about our future. Ford Jr. is a major cog in the Memphis political machine (see FORD FAMILY) while Bob Corker is a son of Tennessee with a clean family and personal track record.
No joke it is just that simple.

Please vote for CORKER, if Ford Jr. wins TENNESEEE loses!

Hope you like the pictures!
