Finally, a jobs bill in the Tennesssee House!
By: R. Neal

Except it's one job for one guy: Peyton Manning. State Rep. Jeremy Faison (R-Cosby) today filed HJR0785 which "Supports Tennessee Titans potential signing of Peyton Manning." WTF?

I'm sure the 250,000+ people out of work in Tennessee, and the tens of thousands of others who have given up or moved away, really appreciate Rep. Faison's concern for the unemployed.

Apparently Rep. Jeremy Faison (R-Cosby), District 11 — Cocke and part of Greene Counties, has plenty of time on his hands.

I mean, just imagine how much time he spends drawing hearts on his notebook and practicing his "Mrs. Peyton Manning" signature.
