How To Fuck Up A Perfectly Good View

We normally enjoy a pretty nice view of the Steel Creek Knobs and the trees here in Thunder Valley, but sometimes certain man-made eyesores can prove very detrimental to such a pristine environment…

I sent the Ramsey campaign an email complaining about how offensive and disturbing the blight on my view is and requesting it’s removal.

No response as of yet.

Seems the Parkway has a nature threatening disaster of it’s own. Anybody got a paintball gun?

Ron Ramsey: Preventing Jobs From Coming To NE Tennessee

Lt. Governor of Tennessee, Ron Ramsey, is running for Governor. My 82 year old mother met Ron Ramsey at a visit he made to King College some years back.
Not only was that the first time I ever heard my mother speak poorly of someone, it was also the first time I ever heard her use the word “asshole".

Ron Ramsey is a pathetic man. From his support for the court rejected, amateurishly written Guns in Bars legislation to his hypocrisy concerning Embryonic Stem Cell Research, Ron Ramsey may well be the most incompetent boob that ever served in public office in Tennessee.

If one needs more evidence of the fact that Ron Ramsey is as useless as a dry well, you can look no further than his statements concerning a proposed Fish Hatchery that was ear-marked for the tiny enclave of Elizabethton in nearby Carter County. The home of TN House Speaker Kent Williams.
Ramsey, who apparently has little knowledge of how politics works, has referred to the 16M dollar project, and the numerous jobs that come with it, as “pork".
Yeah, Ronnie boy, “pork” is where the jobs always come from. That’s why it’s the Rep’s job to get it. It’s called bringin’ it home to one’s district.
Something you have never done for Blountville or any of our counties.

But Ramsey knows this, really. His opposition to these new jobs for E-Town does not arise from an aversion to “pork barrel spending". It arises from his personal dispute with Williams.
Kent Williams, a more moderate Carter county Republican, helped the state of Tennessee greatly when he sided with Democrats in preventing Ramsey’s fellow loser, Jason Mumpower, from becoming Speaker of the House.

Ramsey has no problem taking the jobs away from an entire community over a personal dispute and he’s perfectly willing to lie through his teeth in the process…

From the Johnson City Press:

Ron Ramsey says get a job.

Ron Ramsey is clearly not fit to govern this great state. His priorities are back-assward and his heart is clearly not with the people of our area.
But, that’s the kind of thing that happens to career politicians. Particularly many of the incumbents of late. They get all nice and cozy in their plush offices that we pay for, enjoy the health benefits we pay for, eat their meals and clothe their rug rats on our dime….
But when it comes to delivering JOBS to the area it’s more important to them to joust with their political enemies (like the little drama queen pansies they are) than to do their duty and bring some jobs our way.

Ron Ramsey is a disgrace. We should primary this monkey the way we did Davis. Even a prick like Bill Haslam would be better than this clown.

Maybe we will. Let’s make some calls…. ;)
