While there are many important points to consider in today's The Daily Times article about the rally for Judge Young, I can't get past my embarrassment of hearing our county mayor talk about "testicular fortitude."
I think that he was talking about us, but whatever he was saying is lost on me because all I can think is..."he did NOT just say 'testicular fortitude.'"

Mayor Cunningham has made himself look the fool. Unprofessional doesn't even come close to describing his inappropriate comments. When you read his quotes you have to wonder how he ever graduated from law school much less worked in the U.S. Attorneys office. He would have done a bigger favor to Judge Young by keeping his mouth shut.
You know the whole thing kind makes me want to throw up. Here are these fat cats standing there dogging out a young single mother with no one there to defend her.
"If your illegal, your illegal" states Cunningham. Well if you are legal you are legal also applies.
How frigging thick skulled can these people be about this issue. We've all but tried to cram the documents up their .... to get them to see the truth. But I see the truth means very little to some people.
How ignorant all this makes Blount County look to the rest of the country.

See Gonzo. U.S. Attorneys are a political appointment. And as we have seen with our mayor, a self described "conduit or messenger, if you will", it's all politics - all the time.
I submit this comment as a human being, as opposed to my normal occupation as an attorney:
Since the topic of "Testicular Fortitude" has been raised by Mayor Jerry Cunningham, and no specific definition of said term has been forthcoming (other than to accuse 'anonymous bloggers' like myself of the lack of same), I have perused the blogosphere to define Jerry's terminology . . . please take the test to determine if you have "what it takes":

As initiator of the now famous test, I have to stand up and be counted! I am the crazy lady that sent the link to the now almost famous attorney that posted this whole "test" madness. What fun we have....

First 100 fans to show get a free smoke shovel just like the one Big Enos carries.
Door prizes include a dog that don't hunt, a cow that don't milk, a horse that don't plow, and the grand prize....
a rooster that is guaranteed to challenge any man's "testicular fortitude"!
See DT article here (Link...), where a doctor is suing for being arrested on his own property with some hunting dogs:
Then compare here, at last night's rally that really went pretty far into detail on an impending case: (Link...)
Funny these would show up in the same edition of the Daily Times.

Here lies the true meaning of the words testicular fortitude.
RIP Bro!
One or two folks at the meeting the other night have also been known to blog - or whatever the devil you call it: (Link...).
I reviewed the comments of these bloggers and wonder if they have taken the Testicular Fortitude test?
