Yeah, that's a totally fair and representative decision. Good job mental people.

Mine too.... I'm so embarrassed. At least it won't make it through state senate.

My state too, it's a shame it wasn't passed by the Senate, bill was sent back to be reworded. They will not see it again until 2016. Was actually looking forward to the legal battles over this bill if passed.

The comments are heavily against the measure. Nice to see. It's also nice to see that even some Tennessee Republicans understand that they are painting themselves as fools.

Untrue it was sent back to be reworded. There's a good chance it will pass next year.

Provided that they remove the words "bible" and "officially recognized" in their rewording I'm sure they'll have no trouble passing the bill, next year.

Nothing I said was untrue.
If it passes, the state will have to spend thousands (maybe even millions) in a futile attempt to defend an obviously unconstitutional law. Wouldn't that money be put to better use feeding the hungry?
