The Knucklehead of the Day award

Today's winner is Republican State Senator from Tennessee Jeff Miller. Unhappy with the reporting done by a small newspaper of his marriage breakup, Miller sent letters to the Bradley News Weekly's advertisers requesting they stop advertising with the newspaper. The letters in part said-

"Myself and many others are going to be watching in the next several weeks to identify and remember those in this community that wish to subsidize the destructive nature of this type of publication in our community."

Some recipients of the letter took it as a threat. Reading the above I'd agree. State legislators have alot of power that can be used and abused and I wouldn't take the above lightly. Rep Miller is making threats. For abusing the powers of his office, Tennessee State Senator Jeff Miller is today's Knucklehead of the day.
