State Rep. Stacy Campfield goes to bat for fellow conservative and Republican Glen Casada. Defending him against the blitzkrieg attack machine, sent out to discredit his very credible request.
“Men are from Mars, Women are from…..
First Democrats played the sex card by attacking Eric Swafford claiming he was from Mars (A clear reference to the book “Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus”) Yes, Eric is a man. There are several real men in the Republican party. That is another thing our party does not lack. But just because there seems be a lack of real men on the other side of the aisle does not mean Republicans lack for strong women either. In fact we have several strong Republican women who have proven they will stand up against sexism. Not vote for it to become speaker of the house.The attack did not work.
Now, Democrats have dug to a new low by sending their partisan attack machine after Glen Casada for trying to defend our president.
Glen Casada, The one person in the caucus (possibly the entire legislature) with a Spanish sounding name is being singled out for attack among the thousands of people who have signed on to defend our president. Are Democrats now playing to the anti Spanish sentiment felt among some race based groups of their storied past? If Democrats are to ever flourish again in Tennessee they must move away from their segregationist (Bull Connor, Robert “KKK” Byrd) mentality.
Why do Democrats attack people who want to clear our presidents name? Could it be because Republicans want to defend a person of color from false attacks? Is Democrat racism a factor?
I think the answer is quite clearly yes.
It is sad to see how desperate Democrats have become in their diminished role. Don’t they know we have serious issues facing our state. We don’t have time to divide up the state legislature for partisan Democrat race/sex baiting games. Lets talk about the serious issues we face. The constitutional freedoms, rights and responsibilities we all should be working to uphold, not some sexist, racist attacks and silly partisan name calling.
