Imitation is the Greatest Form of Flattery even from The Slopper?
I have always heard that imitation is the greatest form of flattery. Well, after tonight I don't know, you see the slopper tabloid bully girl lifted material that was original to Brian's Blog. On
this post on January 16, 2010 we said about Chuck Ward candidate for County Commission Ninth District.
Plus to those of us that listen to Sports Talk there is that line, "I am Chuck Ward and I want to buy your house."
And now in the
Slopper Tabloid Bully Girl's column tomorrow E.W. Scripps published.
Mike Brown and Paul Pinkston will face a fight with Chuck "I want to buy your house" Ward in District 9.
Brian's Blog recognizes with the main characters employed by E.W. Scripps for their tabloid "National Enquirer" weekly you have a publisher that is known as the Slopper Tabloid Bully Girl, a reporter that is known to just be a big bag of gas after a meal of Beans and a former accountant that now plays a reporter that never lets facts get in the way of an accurate or balanced story.
Burchett Will Sell the AJ Building and Send Central Office to a Leaking Building
Sources in attendance at the Concord-Farragut Republican Club meeting tonight report that Knox County Mayor candidate Tim Burchett said that Knox County has a valuable piece of property in downtown Knoxville. Burchett pledged that if elected he will sell the building. (Burchett did not name the building) But he went on to say, if they can put kids in leaking building then those bureaucrats can be moved into a leaking old school. I am tired of their wasteful spending.
Knoxville Knows Who To Pull For
Indianaplois, IN is about 9 hours away to the North. New Orleans, LA is about 9 hours away to the South. But we know who to pull for in Sunday's Super Bowl. It is all about the Colts.
Karns Republican Club Tonight
Big crowd tonight at the Karns Republican Club to hear General Sessions Judge Patricia Hall Long. Long explained what the General Sessions Judge does everyday. There is 1 General Sessions Judge for 76,000 Knox County citizens. A very informative talk and she answered every question. Long is a welcome addition to the Knox County judicial system.
The following officials were present. Knox County Republican Party Chairman Ray Jenkins, Knox County Republican First Vice Chair Phyllis Severance, Chancellor John Weaver, General Sessions Clerk Cathy Quist, Criminal Court Clerk Joy McCroskey, Register of Deeds Sherry Witt, Trustee Fred Sisk and Bobby Waggoner representing Sheriff Jimmy J.J. Jones. John Duncan, III candidate for Trustee was in attendance, Theresa Leadbetter representing her husband Ron Leadbetter, candidate for State Senate District 7 spoke on behalf of her husband. Brian Hornback of Brian's Blog spoke for himself as a candidate for Republican State Executive Committeeman District 6.
The best line came from the Sisk and Duncan exchange. Sisk went first said I have an opponent in this fine young man. When Duncan spoke he said as Fred said I am a fine young man. That is what this sport of politics is about, use your opponents words to your advantage. As a candidate don't be caught saying anything good about your opponent that can be quoted back. It doesn't mean you have to talk trash, just don't address your opponent or it will come back.
Planned Parenthood Creates Fake Shield Company to Purchase East Knoxville Property
In today's media roundup, you will see a story where the African American community in concert with ProCET (Pro-life Coalition of East TN) and the Pro-Life community held a press conference at True Vine Baptist Church in East Knoxville to oppose the relocation of Planned Parenthood to East Knoxville.
One of the major issues to come out of this news is that Planned Parenthood created a fake LLC (Limited Liability Company) in order to purchase the property in Knoxville. Leonard Lawson LLC was created, they listed a single family residence in Brentwood as the LLC's location. Is Genie M. McCord at 5740 Sterling Oaks Drive Brentwood, TN 37027 in violation of the Brentwood zoning ordinance by having a business in a residential zoned area?
The owner of the property Ron Watkins was not given the real identity of the purchaser. He was simply informed that it was a medical provider out of Middle Tennessee. Mr. Watkins signed the sales documents in Knoxville. The representatives of Leonard Lawson LLC (Planned Parenthood) signed the documents in Nashville.
What did NAI Knoxville the commercial realtor that handled the transaction know about Leonard Lawson LLC?

These are photos of the property that Planned Parenthood purchased through a shield company.

KNS Lies! Brian's Blog aka Truth Squad Calls Foul.
Today with
this article Josh Flory, business reporter;
Jack McElroy, Editor and Patrick Birmingham, Publisher have printed a slanderous lie about former County Commissioner and private citizen Scott Moore. Underneath a photograph that was taken of Moore on Thursday the reporter authored, the
editor approved and the publisher printed the following verbiage.
Scott Moore, during a meeting Thursday of the Board of Zoning Appeals at the City County Building, was involved in SHE Group, LLC, an oak ridge auto company that filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection in August.
Mr. Moore was not involved in SHE Group, LLC. The paper has documented his involvement in the Cabbage Road property that was purchased and ultimately placed as collateral. However, when the property was purchased Moore had no other involvement. The paper detailed yesterday that Moore had obtained property at a county surplus sale that was then sold to a major stakeholder in SHE Group, LLC. Flory obviously has all the corporate records of SHE Group, LLC (especially the ones filed in accordance with the bankruptcy) and our sources indicate that Moore is not listed as an owner, stakeholder, officer or has any official involvement with SHE Group, LLC.
The position of Brian's Blog is that if the information is accurate then report it. But, for the little boys club at the Big Metal Shed on the Hill to fabricate information in an effort to slander Moore is not an adherence to the Scripps motto "Give light and the people will find their way." With
McElroy it is about turning the lights out and making the people believe the odor of good ole little boy club.
