Ablogination

This may be a sign of Tennessee District One Republicans finally pulling their collective head out of their collective ass.
After voting to fuck our communities over for the last two years, it seems that now District One Republicans, some of them anyway, are attempting to right a very serious wrong.
Phil Roe, Johnson City Mayor and Republican goofball, has out raised the incumbent Republican shitbird, Rep. David Davis, in the last period.

BRISTOL, Tenn. – U.S. Rep. David Davis is one of only a few congressmen in the nation to be bested at fundraising by a primary challenger during any single reporting period, according to the Federal Election Commission.

Davis, R-1st, raised $107,194.54 in total contributions for the period ending June 30, the end of the last full quarter. For the same period, Republican challenger Phil Roe reported $118,723.72 in contributions.

“I can guarantee you, there’s not many challengers topping contributions to incumbent congressmen, so that shows we’re making a run,” Roe said Tuesday. “We’ve also been really happy with contributions in July.”

The failure of David Davis as a Congressional Representative is immeasurable. Second only to George Bush in incompetence and pure, unadulterated greed.

Roe may not be a gem, but Davis is little more than a germ when it comes to the good of North East Tennessee.
David Davis has consistently voted against our best interests and for the interests of the Big Corporate vermin that he is owned by.
Davis has voted against our troops, against health care for our children, against our clean water, against our environment, and just recently against protecting employees from pay discrimination based on gender. An ultimately misogynistic, Taliban type act.

David Davis is a vile and disgraceful man. A sudo-Christian with a Satanic agenda. We’ve seen way too much of that in the last eight years and we now know the misery to which it leads.

TN-1 Republicans, you fucked us all in ‘06. Yourselves and your families included, all for a tax cut and a copy of the Ten Commandments. It seems you might have found the dignity and humility to correct the problem.
I truly hope and pray that this is the case.
