This is sad on so many levels

So there's this fella named Stacey Campfield. He is a member of the House of Representatives in the great state of...

...wait for it...

...that's right, Tennessee. Knoxville, yet.

Rep. Campfield gained the attention of a blogger or two, and the local news down there, yesterday when he tried to join the Tennessee House Black Caucus.

Campfield is white. But, as Jesus' General posted today:

He was born a poor black child

Rep. Stacey Campfield
Tennessee House of Representatives

Dear Rep. Campfield,

I was sorry to hear that your application to become a member of the Tennessee House Black Caucus was rejected. When will they realize that the sons of the Southern Strategy are the black man's friend?

Be sure to follow the link in JG's post to Egalia from TGW's entry about the same fella, in which we learn that

Stacey Campfield (R-Knoxville) is famous in some circles for his difficulties with the complexities of 3rd grade writing skills. When Campfield began blogging a few months back, conservative bloggers were so alarmed by his difficulties with the language that they assisted him in the fine art of spell checking.

And yes, she's got examples. Man. If I'd have known some of this shit a couple of years ago, I could have had much more fun down there...
