About “Not So Uniform” and the problems that school uniforms can cause for students who can’t afford them:

“If schools require a uniform, they should have to buy it for the students. But hey, maybe they could sell sponsorships for the uniforms, you know, like NASCAR drivers wear: ‘The Red Bull AutoZone students of Nextel Melrose High made great academic strides this semester. We’re looking forward to a great season for the Mountain Dew Golden Wildcats.'” โ€” jeff

About “The Rant” and Mitt Romney’s chances:

About “Disputed Calls” and a photograph of county commissioners Steve Mulroy and Melvin Burgess with GOP vice presidential contender Paul Ryan:

No wonder the Democratic Party is in shambles in Memphis. … Memphis Democrats are moving toward the Tennessee Republican Party.” โ€” stapletondia
