This from today's Tennessean, Dave Cooley the #2 man of Phillip Bredesen. It was revealed in November by Col. Lynn Pitts (the now fired, retired, left in disgrace - the Governor Phillip shield) you fill in the blanks. I digress, the #2 man is signing off on low level and high level promotions at the THP.
Could it be cooley was checking Santa Phillip's nice and naughty list.
Cooley's wife is hired and employed at the Safety Department, taking Tennessee under Phillip from a pattern of cronyism to a level of nepotism.
Cooley drives 87 miles per hour in a 70 mile an hour zone. The THP patrolman is promoted.
First, Phillip MUST return every contribution given by anyone employed by or applied for a position within state government, since he announced his intent to run for Governor or became Governor. Second, he must relieve Cooley of his responsibilities.

Refusing to answer media inquiries (especially at the state level) is often an indication not only of guilt, but of a lack of desire to change the behavior that led to the offenses in question. Bredesen's behavior reminds me of the guilty teenager who has been caught in a lie...he or she usually tries to avoid the subject.
