This interview with Erick was last Tuesday, the day he was to be elected (without oposition) to the Macon City Council. Congratulations Erick! And remember, you asked for it!
Erick discusses Fred Thompson’s non-candidacy for President and the curse of U. S. Senators being elected President–it doesn’t happen!
Erick thinks the “child pornography” issues against David McDade, the DA in the Genarlow Wilson case are not going any where, and offers some observations about the efforts to get Wilson out of jail.
On the national front, Erick thinks Republicans lost their majority because of corruption and earmarks, as much as because of the war in Iraq. I am not sure I agree, but what do I know. He attributes the low approval rating of Congress to the fact that since taking control in January, Democrats have actually blocked many of Pelosi’s initiatives. News to me. I thought it was the Republicans in the Senate.
He does admit surprise that the President has stuck to his guns on Iraq even in the face of near universal opposition and eroding Republican support. I am not at all surprised. Disappointed? Yes! Disgusted? Yes! Why should I be surprised! If you are surprised, “You don’t know Dick!”
My apologies to Erick for this shortened interview, but at the beginning of this interview we had phone problems and I deleted the 10 minutes of my babbling monologue while it was being fixed. I am sure everyone will appreciate the editing.
