« Despite Surplus, a Tax Increase on the Way | Main | The Century Mark » May 14, 2007The Return of Jimmy Soprano
Just as he did last year, Naifeh killed a bill by pretending not to see legislators' hands raised in opposition to a parliamentary manuever. This time, however, while the video was "disappeared," a separate audio recording survived. David Oatney has the story, as does Kleinheider. And Ben Cunningham has two posts on it, here and here.

Tennessee House Speaker Jimmy Naifeh violated House rules to kill a tort-reform bill he didn't like and, although all House sessions are now video-recorded, there's no video. This isn't the first time Naifeh has violated the rules to kill legislation he didn't like. And it isn't the first time video from a controversial House session has inexplicably become inaccessible.
