Giles County Executive Candidates Appearance On WLX

Just listened to the three candidates for Giles County Executive on WLLX from Lawrenceburg and was totally impressed with Capt. Graham Stowe, Mr. Lindsey did an excellent job also but I have to give a huge fail to Mrs Vanzant who failed to name one single accomplishment from her twelve years as County Executive.

Capt. Stowe has a plan that relies on innovative common sense approaches with an active leadership role and long term plans without a property tax increase or wheel tax. His vast experience and simple plan for keeping communications open through regular "Town Hall Meetings" is a huge step toward rebuilding trust in county leadership.

Mr Lindsey has a plan that relies primarily on possible grants from state and federal taxes which means more big government intervention. While he did say a wheel tax was not needed the additional spending he described as "needed" will require a bunch of new funding. While identified as an independent he talks more like a liberal democrat but even as such he has more experience and ideas than Mrs. Vanzant.

Mrs Vanzant would not rule out a wheel tax and/or a property tax passing off the responsibility as entirely that of the commissioners. She did say that the county was in financial good health with an expected half million dollars in excess income by the end of the fiscal year. and over 800 thousand dollars in excess school funds. If there is that much actual excess income why is the highway department so underfunded?

What are some of the things you heard that tonight during that debate that impressed you either positively or negatively?

Did you listen to the same debate as I did??? Lindsey and Stowe never answered a single question. They just beat around the Bush and said nothing. They actually talked about skinning cats and poking belly buttons. The only failure Mrs Vanzant has had is not running alan barrett out of Giles County. She needs to be more like New Hope Baptist Church and run him off after he threw rocks at the congregation.

I don't think Barrett threw rocks, but he did bring in a bucket of rocks. From what I understand, he got wind that the church was going to get rid of him, so he wanted to make a point that he who is without sin should cast the first stone. Typical theatrics.

Your two postings are lies. Why would Allen Barrett post something that was not accurate and sign his name to that post when scores of people would have heard the same radio broadcast and be able to confirm what he said was true? Its plain to see you made both posts, finished one then typed another so readers would think the worst of Barrett.

And to the poster (you again?) who claims Barrett was run out of two churches - lie again. Our church dissolved after being hit by two disasters and the congregation couldn't afford to build over twice within a short period of time.

What amazing lies the Allen Barrett haters are conjuring up from their cauldron of sin. It looks like the same slimy slug has crawled out from under their rock to make the same false accusations they made four years ago. To the slimy slug you know those things are absolutely false because I and others called you on them before and showed proof that you were a lying lowlife that specializes in gossip, rumor and lies all from the comfort of your anonymous closet. One day I will know your identity with full assurance and when that day comes I will visit your place of decay. You can take that anyway you want and I dare you to file a complaint because that would require you be revealed.

There was absolutely never a bucket of rocks involved in any way shape or form nor was there ever any rocks thrown by me at anyone or anything and certainly not a church I loved.

Since the slimy slug already knows the truth but choses to spread a vicious lie let me address the issue to those who are actually interested in the truth
I have been the minister at two different churches total. I resigned from New Hope where I had been for over nineteen years. I was under pressure to resign because my granddaughter had declared herself to be gay. Because I would not condemn her, I had spoken many times against the behavior, but because I would not condemn her and stop her from coming to church I was threatened with dismissal by a small group of members.

There was not enough votes to fire me but because of the divide and because of the way some very trusted and loved people behaved with secret meetings and vicious behavior toward my granddaughter I decided to leave.

On that final Sunday the gang of nine tried to prevent me from delivering my last sermon at New Hope, but then they agreed after I told them I would not resign and there would be a vote if I wasn’t allowed to speak.

That day I walked to the pulpit with my Bible and a small brown paper bag with seven small thumb sized pebbles. I spoke of the joy I and my family had known over those nineteen years, how we had survived many difficulties united. I spoke of the woman brought before Jesus to be condemned for adultery. Jesus refused to condemn the woman and I refused to condemn my 13 year old granddaughter. I closed the sermon by quoting Jesus “Let him who is without sin cast the first stone” then I opened the bag and dropped the seven stones on the floor. I walked to my wife and together we walked out followed by more than half those present.

It took a long time before I was able to overcome the hurt of that experience. A couple of years later I was asked to be the minister at Union Valley which had dwindled to only a few members and was about to close their doors. We went to Union Valley and God blessed us with an increase in attendance and a loving membership. The church had been flooded several times in the past but was always rebuilt. We were hit by a tornado and flood. We decided to rebuild but to look for a different location in the Campbellsville area. There was no land available at a price we could afford. The decision was made to raise the property and rebuild. The area was cleared and a building ordered. More problems arose with the flood plan regulations and the project became too expensive and we voted to disband the church.

I decided to retire as a pastor but continue working for Christ. After visiting a number of churches from 1st Baptist to Temple of Praise in this area and a number in the Murfreesboro area we settled on World Outreach where my family and I are now happy active members.

Well speaking of the July 15th issue of the Pulaski Citizen, did anyone else happen to notice that Mrs Julie Phillips claims she and I quote "am responsible for accounting, payroll, budgeting, purchasing, personnel, insurance, TCRS, state aid road/bridge programs, FEMA/TEMA as well as daily public customer service." WHY are we paying for employees in the Financial
Management Office to do this if she is still doing these jobs? AND why are we paying Mr Whitt for both FEMA/TEMA programs and WHY do we even need Financial Management office. Seems like either Mrs Phillips has lied about doing all of this or our Financial Management is not fully in place. What's going on?

I've always thought when a person was thrown out of church was wrong. Don't let them lead prayer, wait on table lead singing or any other big part in church would be the thiing. If they stay and listen, they just might see the wrong and change. But if they can't stay and listen how will they ever change.

STONE 1 the hard, solid, nonmetallic mineral matter of which rock is made, esp. as a building material:
• a small piece of rock found on the ground.

PEBBLE 1. a small stone made smooth and round by the action of water or sand.

ROCK 1 the solid mineral material forming part of the surface of the earth and other similar planets, exposed on the surface or underlying the soil or oceans.
• Geology any natural material, hard or soft (e.g., clay), having a distinctive mineral composition.

Mr.Stowe was not a democrat in the white house he was a highly qualified military aide and as such has no political involvement only job accomplishment. What Clinton did was representative of the democrats and those who supported him and helped cover up his crimes. The military had no hand in that.
Mr. Stowe is a highly educated, experienced leader who has been a great asset to this county since coming here, his contributions did not begin with this campaign. Ask the people at Ivy Crest about him and his family's involvement.
Because you haven't experienced his contributions doesn't mean he hasn't made any only that you are in a different circle of activity.
I have heard the rumors about Mr. Lindsey and Mr. Greene and also about him and Mr. Billard, I don't know if they are true and really don't care because regardless of why a person is the race it's their qualifications that that matter. Both Mr. Lindsey and Mr. Stowe are by far more qualified than Mrs. Vanzant who has proven to be unable to lead effectively and now very questionable financial misconduct.
I believe Mrs. Vanzant will be reelected only because the majority of the vote will be split between the two men.

I agree that either Lindsey or Stowe will be a much better leader than Vanzant. But, I prefer a person who:

* Has lived in this County for over 20 years rather than a few years
* Has schooled his children in our County school system so he has a close knowledge of that system.
* Has given to our community for many years and has coached our children for many years.
* Goes to church in our community.
* Shops in our community.
* Been involved with community projects.
* Has proven management experience in public and private sectors.
* Does not "talk down" to the citizens of Giles County.

But that is my opinion. I am sure that there will be some who disagree.

10:07 are you saying in your post that unless you have lived here for over 20 years you should not be elected to any position or have any say in how your money is spent? If people don't have kids in school they can't know what the school is about, so people without kids or have grown kids that have moved away should never be elected to anything?
Having a ministry in the assisted care and nursing homes for many years don't count as much as if you coached a sports team of six year olds? It's more important that a person sits on a pew in Giles County than it is to be actively engaged in a church family outside the county. I'm sure those Giles County families that live in Ardmore and other border areas are overjoyed that they aren't really true Giles Countians because they attend church outside the county. Buying stuff at Wall's Lumber in Campbellsville isn't as important as shopping at Home Depot in Pulaski.. A person who lives half a mile from Lawrenceburg should drive fifteen miles to shop at Johnson's instead of at Kroger. Does shopping at WalMart qualify as contributing to the community or does it require smaller home owned stores?
This has got to be the worst yet, having an advanced degree in management and having commanded ships, and military posts along with management level in the White House is not as qualifying as a high school education and a few college classes in psychology then mismanaging the county finances for twelve years is.
It's very doubtful that anyone will tell you that Capt. Stowne has talked down to them. By virtue of his education Capt. Stowe may speak differently but by virtue of his strong Christian convictions he would never taik down to a person. On the other hand how often have you ever heard Mrs. Vanzant ever discuss an issue with citizens. Even if you felt like someone was talking down to you would than not be better than to be totally ignored?
Your comments 10:07 may sound good in your head but the fact is that are utterly preposterous attempt to discredit a man that stands head and shoulders above you but has the humility to not belittle you with his qualifications.

I think a lot of people want to hurt you and are taking it out on Mrs. Vanzant. God bless Mrs. Vanzant she can't help how her supports act.

Well for your information I attend church on Saturday evening and last night was a glorious time of sharing in the baptism of 300 souls divided between last night and this morning.

Capt. Stowe doesn't need me to be his spokesman I simply responded to an arrogantly isolationist post that told people they were not good enough to a part of Giles County.

I have to wonder with that type attitude have you ever worked for any of those "outsiders" that will never be accepted into this community. No wonder they county is continuing to lose population and business with that warm welcome mat you have placed at the county doors.
Capt. Stowe or Mr. DeBois has no more control of who supports them than obama has over your support for him. I am supporting every conservative that is running in my districts and out that's why I support Joe Carr instead of the democrat lamar alexander who voted with obama more than half the time, voted to give the UN power over our guns and for amnesty to illegals and supports a twelve cents per gallon tax increase on gasoline.
You see unlike you when I go to church and read my Bible I take it to heart that a man's character is important and our relationship with Jesus the Christ prohibits me support anyone I would know to be of low character such as liars and thieves and abusers of those they govern.

That's a lie. Why can't you be truthful? You did judge me, and you have no right. And, as you said, how can you judge me when you don't even know me?
You continue to lie when you call me an enabler. Your problem with me is the fact that I disagree with how you treat people and do not share your views. This is why you should not be on the county commission. What happens when someone on the commission has the audacity to disagree with you? Would you blow up and start calling people names and making all sorts of mean-spirited accusations? I'll bet you would.
I will leave you with some Bible verses for you to consider. I refer you to Proverbs 6:16-19 and Matthew 7:12.

6:43 show me one lie that I have told for there is nothing I have claimed that I did not show evidence for. Are you not aware that there are dozens of people just like you who are using a fine comb on every statement that I make just looking for something to discredit me with? So far not once have I been proven wrong on this blog because I don't post anything that I cannot prove. The fact that you are indeed an enabler of wrongdoing has a greater amount of proof than perhaps any other statement I have made in my lifetime. You seem to be the only person on the planet that continues to deny your enabling activities.

I have every right and responsibility to judge behavior which I do both yours and mine, I have no right or responsibility to judge one's heart other than to say as does the Bible that "the heart "motivation" is a deceiver". I have never issued a judgement on anything but your behavior and your words.

When people disagree with me they always have an opportunity to explain their reasoning and through that discussion we have an opportunity to change out minds or acres to disagree. The oily problem is when people like you demand I believe something simply because they say it's so, and especially when they have past problems with credibility. It's like you saying you are not and enabler of wrong doing because YOU say you are a Christian and a gentleman then sign as anonymous thus giving absolutely nothing to base the idea that you are either a Christian or a gentleman. Ask commissioners other than those I have exposed as liars and thieves and see what they say about having conversations with me.

Since you want to share Bible verses let me leave you with this one,
"Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them"

10:07 You speak as if you know that Graham Stowe has connections to Pierre Ballard, of the Charter fame. That is absolutely false. Anyone can tell you that it is Pierre Ballard who is actually Danny Lindsey's handler. Back in the spring, Lindsey could't even attend a county meeting without the short leash Ballard kept him on. And it is also true that Danny Lindsey has tried his best to blur the lines between the two military men running for County Executive office. Why hasn't Lindsey told us what his rank was in the Army? We're told over and over that he was an officer. What was his rank? Although I agree that either of the two men running for office would be better than Janet, only one is his own man and will not bow down to the Pulaski clique. And that man is Graham Stowe.

Another thing that Lindsey is trying to blur is his political affiliations. He is a Democrat. You can check his voting records. Why is he constantly trying to have his picture taken with state Republicans like Beth Harwell or drop Barry Doss's name? He is a pretender. Just like all of the other Democrats running as "independent," he is apparently ashamed for people to know his true colors.

And to say that Graham Stowe "talks down" to people…what a joke. He is one of the most humble men I have ever met. Considering his accomplishments, it is surprising that he has remained humble, but I'm sure that is from his Christian foundation.

We have a unique opportunity to elect someone who will work for all the people of the county and not just a select few. Go to votestowe.com and check out Graham Stowe. You will see that he indeed stands head and shoulders above the competition.

I have known Danny for years and like him a lot. That being said, liking a person isn't the same as thinking one would be the best at serving the citizens. It's hard to look at Capt.Stowe's qualifications and believe that he's not the best candidate. I think the only way to get this county out of the hole it's in is by electing someone like Stowe. I like Janet as well, but we need someone up there to move us forward and she ain't getting it done.

you were wrong when you falsely accused me of willfully going along with things I know to be wrong. You lied and have too much pride to admit it. You also lied about Mrs. Vanzant's asking Mrs. Goolsby to run to keep you off the commission. Those were lies.
I'm not going to argue back and forth with you anymore. It's pointless. But, I will leave you with the Bible verses I mentioned recently. Read (and ponder) Prover2bs 6:16-19 and Matthew 7:12. Let's add Romans 14:1 and Romans 12:3 to th1e equation to the mix.
You know, I would laugh at the way this contrived war against the 7th District and Mrs. Vanzant has heated up, but it's really pretty sad. And the talk about Mr. Stowe is troubling. I do NOT think he is best for Giles County, and please don't accuse me of being against him because he is an outsider. That would be a lie. And I will never (unlike you) try to smear him in any way, shape or form. But the thing I find most troubling about his candidacy is that those like you and the little group who NEVER meets are pushing and supporting him. Just like DuBois, I voted against him when I saw one of his signs in your yard.

Doesn't go to church but thinks religion is good for a culture. Public schooled their children, even taught for awhile, but wants their grandchildren homeschooled.

I can't take issue w/ the way you vote, but you sure can't sway others with your inconsistent biases. You're the type that would vote against someone for doing business in Huntsville or Columbia, right after putting in your order to Amazon.

Oh hell enabler, I'm not asking for an explanation. It wouldn't make you any more believable if you gave one anyway. I know what I know.

He also claims he doesn't attack Barrett because of his Christian status, but that is just another lie. Once again, an indirect attack on Allen back when jv's car was vandalized:

" Anonymous said...

This is strictly hearsay, but it was said that one of the people who detained Mr. Stafford asked him if Allen Barrett had anything to do with it. I'm not saying that is true. Just wondered if anyone else has heard this? Either way, that's a sad indictment of a person's reputation."

Casting doubt on someone, even if it's a lie, is a form of attacking. When will the enable realize that he is guilty of the very things he accuses others of doing?

Even the enabler should be smart enough to know that people are eager to believe lies told on someone. Case in point is Richard Jewell. He had absolutely nothing to do with the bombing, yet his life was ruined because someone accused him of it. Having never claimed that I do not judge people's heart, I am sure that is what the enabler had in mind. BTW enabler, suck it.

enabler of One Shot (aka Barrett)
Here you are again but joined by the other individual on this particular thread.
I just had to respond to what someone said about Mrs. Vanzant's car being vandalized sometime ago. It truly is a sad indictment of Barrett's reputation for the officer to ask if Barrett had anything to do with this. Would you at least agree with me on that? Or, what spin can you possibly put on it?

5:45 You know damned well it was not hearsay but just in your feeble mind to associate Mr. Barrett with Wayne Stafford in the vandalizing of Mrs. Vanzant's car, the video shows Stafford acted alone. Get this - Barrett supporters were laughing that it was actually "one of your own" doing the vandalizing. Allen Barrett is not that stupid nor would he ever dream of vandalizing, period!

Stafford and Vanzant were big buddies until she double-crossed him and he tried to pay her back. That's her pattern she uses people until they aren't useful then she discards them like a load of crap. Ask Stafford why he did it and you'll see how she treated him and a lot of others.

6:53 a reputation is what others may think of you good or bad, true or false I have very little concern for reputations.
Character on the other hand is of great importance to me that's why I seek to protect mine with a consistency of truth.

I approach people not based on their reputation but on their character, giving each person the same opportunity to disprove their reputation by displaying their character. Unfortunately there are some who have sold their character, their integrity for a few coins and temporary positions of importance.

Wasn't that Wayne Stafford. So you think Wayne would even like Mr. Barrett after that? No you just wanted to take slur at Barrett. Yes I'm making a crack at your Christianity, I don't believe Christians would act like you do.

He's big on repentance. Perhaps he just repents every day after acting decidedly unlike a Christian. Otherwise, he might as well sleep in on Sunday. Yes enabler, I am judging you. Just wanted to be clear on that.

When you sin in front of someone aren't you suppose to repent in front of them?

The enabler lied about posting July 28 on the blog where others could see, so I don't think praying for his sins at homw covers that.

The enabler first brought the Bible into the blog a long time ago.

I am not the one who said there was anything between One Shot and Wayne Stafford. All I said is that the officer wanted to know if Barrett was involved. I never said he was. And, would you agree with me that to think such a thing is a terrible indictment on one's reputation?

Look, I knew your guy was going to lose, in spite of the one shot votes he obviously got. Otherwise, his grand total would probably have been less than 150 votes.
Now, as far as Terry Harwell goes, It's unfortunate that he wasn't re-elected, but that's how it goes. Still, I'm glad we have Mrs. Goolsby. And even if she had not been running, your guy would have still come in last place WELL BEHIND Mr. Harwell.

I count 193 votes he got. Did 193 people only vote for WAB I don't know and you don't either.

I've heard several say the fine Christian Gentleman lost the election for Terry Harwell and almost lost it for Mrs. Vanzant.

I think Mrs. Goolsby will do a fine job and not play with her phone. She got my one vote.

Look how close you came to getting Mrs. Vanzant beat. You wasn't for Tommy Cambell and look at his lead. Way to go.

Are you stupid or what? The ONLY reason I ever said I was a Christian on this blog is because of the low-down lie Allen Barrett told on me. My best and only defense to his lie is that I am a Christian. He also wanted additional "proof" that I wasn't a female. Hence...gentleman.
LOOK, the election is over and your guy lost FOR A THIRD TIME. Why can't you stop the troublemaking now, and try to behave in a civil manner toward those you resent and envy?

Judging from your posts 1:09, the question of you being a Christian is open for debate. A real Christian doesn't just go to church when the doors are open, they act Christ-like all the time. Unfortunately, you fail miserably in that respect. As far as judging you, you are right; I'm not supposed to do that. I can, however, utilize spiritual discernment. All things point to you being a hypocrite.
