Folks, Regarless of your political affiliation you should really consider Randy Tyree as your choice for next Sheriff of Knox County. Unlike the current sheriff, his integrity and willingness to work with others goes unquestioned. Forget partisenship and term limits for a second and just look at the 2 canidates. Can we really stand any more terms from this guy and his administration?

website?
I can't seem to find a website for candidate Tyree.
Tyree Campaign Website
I also noticed that former Mayor Tyree does not have a campaign website. That's crazy if you ask me. As expensive as campaigns are to run, a campaign website would be the most cost-effective way to reach the constituents of Knox County.
Also, there is a write-in candidate running for Sheriff in the '06 election. Greg Cox, an '02 candidate, is running as an independent. No website for his campaign, either.
Tyree for Sheriff website
He does have a website. It's (link...)
Not the fanciest, but it makes the point good enough for me.
Johnia Berry
Hutchison has been a hindrance in the Johnia Berry murder. He refused to cooperate with "America's Most Wanted" in drawing attention to the case. More recently, he's discouraged General Attorney Randy Nichols from requesting the TBI's help in the case. I'd be thrilled to see Hutchison out of office.
Hey, Les, why don't we just call each other assholes and get it over with. - Somebody on the old Southknoxbubba.net (if that was you, claim your quote and win net.fame!)
At the end of the day....
Hutchison is terrible. I just don't like the guy. I mean, just listen to him. He's an arrogant multi-millionaire who lives in his half a million dollar mansion. How many other Sheriffs in comparable towns have accumalated this kind of wealth? How many piles of confiscated money and items truly went into his pocket? We'll never know... He TRIES to act honorable/freindly on TV, but don't expect an invite you to his lakehouse or his chalet that he's paid for with your money. If we don't get him out of there, I suppose we will be paying for a bigger yacht for His majesty this term...
Something's going on down there, and it's time for a shakeup. You know, there are very good reasons for term limits on any public office. If term limits don't work, only the people can stop this.
Tyree website
I noticed the website too....your right, simple but gets the word out. What are you doing reading this....get out there and vote Randy Tyree!
(link...)
Google's website is not
Google's website is not fancy either.....
There was a day last week
There was a day last week billed as "Take Your Webmaster to Lunch Day".
Gawd, Randy, I hope you didn't spring for anything fancier than chili dogs from Humphammer's market down the road from your headquarters. The font on that web site looks terrible.
Wait a second . . . it looks pretty good if you stoop to opening it with Internet Exploder instead of Firefox. OK, let's order the Humpburger, instead.
Still, I'm gonna vote for you, as often as possible.
