« Prediction | Main | Tennessean Has Moore on Parker Speeding Ticket Video as Lawyers, Judges Say Parker's Claim Untrue » November 3, 2006Bredesen Supporters Reportedly Chant "Income Tax! Income Tax!"
I just got back from the Jim Bryson send off. Lest there be any doubt that the income tax is still alive, Bredesen's supporters met Jim's bus LOUDLY -- chanting for their candidate, then went into a loud chant hollering, "INCOME TAX! INCOME TAX!"...................on and on and on! It is NOT a dead issue! No way! I HOPE Channel 5 broadcasts THAT. They were there, and they heard them! A heartwarming sight (on a cold morning) was when our fabulous, former First Lady, Betty Dunn, picked up a "Jim" sign and walked right through their group to the street where she wielded that sign for all to see right in the middle of the Bredesen supporters with all their signs. Governor Dunn came through the lobby past me and said, Did you see where my wife went?" I told him, and he immediately went rushing out to her side. They sure made me proud! I have the photos to prove it! Please pass this along to everybody you know who does not want an income tax. Although Bredesen is saying he is against it, his supporters are definitely supporting an income tax, and they proved that this morning. Is there any doubt he is "with" his supporters?????Interesting. I'd sure like to see the video. If Newschannel5 doesn't air it, perhaps the relevant clip might get uploaded to YouTube.com... Update: I would like to hear from others who were there as to what they heard the Bredesen supporters chanting. Update: The story has been confirmed by a second eyewitness. The fact is, Gov. Bredesen's party, the Tennessee Democratic Party, has endorsed a state income tax and long called for one. The only reason Democrats running for office in Tennessee claim to be against the income tax is they know they can't get elected by being openly for it. Posted in Tennessee Government News

I've been to numerous Democratic events, and never once have I heard a chant for an "income tax". When you saw that email, did you even question it? Why in God's name do you think Bredesen supporters would chant "income tax"? Even if they secretly wanted one as you guys like to think is the case, why would they openly chant it? Do you think they are so stupid as to think that would help Bredesen. Let's put our logic caps on folks. Posted by: Sean Braisted at November 3, 2006 10:13 PMMy gosh Hobbs, are you that desperate? You know that any chanting about the income tax was meant to point out that Bryson's campaign chair, Winfield Dunn, is the grandfather of the income tax debate in Tennessee. Admit it and move on. Posted by: Truthman at November 4, 2006 3:27 AMHere\'s a question: Do you even try to be accurate, or does that just not matter in the world of Hobb? If you\'d taken enough initiative to run a Google news search, you might\'ve run across an AP story (see below), which said the Bredesen supporters were chanting \"Big Mistake.\" If this ridiculous claim is the best you can muster, then it\'s no wonder you and your candidate are getting soundly thrashed ...
Awwww it looks like Sean and his other liberal buds are upset. You don't suppose it has anything to do with the fact that their boy Junior is going down in flames do ya? LOL Posted by: gopwins at November 4, 2006 9:41 AMPost a comment
