Oust Fleischmann; elect Dr. Mitchell
I noticed the other day that, in light of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Chuck Fleischmann has been promoting his commitment to fighting this terrible disease. This is a stunningly hypocritical sleight of hand considering his repeated attempts to deny women access to life-saving, cancer-preventing services. Walking with the American Cancer Society might make a nice photo-op, but it can’t make up for the real-life implications of denying women access to preventive services like yearly mammograms.
Fleischmann has repeatedly voted to repeal the very law that mandates women be given access to the services that can actually stop breast cancer in its tracks. He has never offered an alternative to current law that would provide the same level of basic care. Political double-speak like what Chuck engages in is the reason people have lost faith in Congress to govern effectively.
If you’re tired of Congress creating more problems than they fix, I invite you to join me in repealing Fleischmann and replacing him with Dr. Danielle Mitchell. She’s spent her entire career caring for her patients and making decisions in their best interests. That’s who we need in Washington.

Yankees are white supremacists too
White supremacists are a work of art – bad art. Most are not the brightest bulbs on the planet. They need someone they consider to be beneath themselves to bolster their ego and self-confidence.
If you believe that most white supremacists are Southern, think again. We have our share, but I believe many of them are Northerners. Our white supremacist president is a New York Yankee like his father. Perhaps the South should have won the War Between the States – that way these white supremacist Yankees could have this president all to themselves.

Name Corker dog-catcher to muzzle Donald Trump
Since Mad Dog Trump is on the loose, I would vote for Bob Corker as dog-catcher.

Trump behavior, name- calling is embarrassing
Thank you, Sen. Bob Corker, for saying out loud what many of us have been saying about Trump for more than a year now. Trump calling highly respected U.S. Sen.”Liddle Bob Corker” is also a personal attack that I assume concerns Sen. Corker’s height. Sen. Corker is an intelligent man who makes Trump the little man in every sense of the word.
Trump’s narcissistic personality is an embarrassment to intelligent and compassionate United States citizens. How anyone can side with this despicable man is beyond me. Personally I am ashamed to say Trump is our president.
