Bill, you know as well as I do what the relationship between Mary and Rob is. When are the Republicans finally going to pin him to the wall and state it? Are you waiting to use it if he runs in 2008? If he is able to give interviews from rehab in an effort to save his own neck, it's time he own up and face the ugly fallout from his bad boy ways the past 3 years. Posted by: msg at September 14, 2007 9:21 AMBriley was getting a little more then information for his vote from the lobbyist for the Tennessee Trial Lawyers Association. Littleton was his girlfriend. She is mentioned quite a few times (and not in a kind way) in the Briley divorce papers. It is all open record. Posted by: anon at September 14, 2007 9:26 AMO.K. IF Briley was sleeping with a lobbyist for the Trial Lawyers Assn. while chairing the Judiciary Committee, THAT is as big a problem to me as the reckless, criminal actions alleged by the police. Conflict of interest? Talk about an understatement! Posted by: David at September 14, 2007 2:36 PMPost a comment
