Republican Domain Re-direction Looks Stupid, Petty

I just got a message that someone had posted on a forum:

 

This fall's US Senate campaign in the state of Tennessee will likely be between Republican Ed Bryant and Democrat Harold Ford Jr. Both are currently in the US House of Representatives.

I just read that Bryant's campaign registered the domain name www.FordforSenate.com. If you type that in you go to the Bryant campaign web site.

If you're so inclined to complain, here's Bryant's contact info:

Ed Bryant for Senate
5214 Maryland Way Suite 304
Brentwood, TN 37027
Phone: 615-373-2327
Fax: 615-373-9851
Email: info@edbryantforsenate.com

 

Leave it to a politician to make themselves look stupid. Do they think that someone looking for Ford will then be interested in Bryant? Do they think this will sway voters? I think the petty meanness of this action WILL help to sway voters, but not as intended.

Doyenne of White House News Correspondents, With Cojones!

Summary of Grindstaff Chronicles for March 24th, 2006

The important question the country needs Bush to answer is why he had decided to invade Iraq even before moving into the White House. A valiant reporter asked that very question of Bush on Tuesday’s White House press briefing.

When Helen Thomas showed the courage her colleagues lacked in spades and asked Bush this question, he turned into a spitting viper in an instant, and needless to say, did not answer.

Helen Thomas needs us all to hound this pathetic White House with her question, until it’s answered. We shouldn’t let the media fail to keep her question in the forefront. We deserve answers, even if they have to be obtained by harassment, censure, or impeachment.
