Quote of the Day
"You could say that Tennessee state law doesn't apply in Colorado, but my honor does."
- Bruce Shine, Tennessee delegate and one of three finalists for a vacancy on the Tennessee Supreme Court, commenting on Tennessee law that says that pledged delegates must follow through with their pledge to vote for their candidate.
Wow. Apparently, Mr. Shine believes that we can pick and choose which laws we need to follow. I can't tell you how many of my criminal clients think that way, so I'm sure that he would be very popular with them.
