So… over at Delaware Politics, Tennessee Walker wrote a post about the the Chip Flowers/Erika Benner story. Actually, he didn’t write a story about it. He wrote a sleazy tabloid article.
Take a look at some of the phrases he employs in his post [emphasis mine]:
Brenner managed to stay 300 miles away in a resort known for great views of the Alaskan wilderness and closed mouths.
A suspicious mind might assume that, Erika Brenner got preferential from Democrat Chip Flowers. Ms. Brenner is an attractive young woman. (I assume he left out the word “treatment” after preferential)
But, if one wants to make the argument that she should get a Merit system job, there are two positions where she has acknowledged Merit:
Horizontal and Prone.
Tennessee Walker is touted as one of the “reasonable” voices of DelawarePolitics.net and the GOP, but he’s not reasonable. He’s exactly like Rush and co. when it comes to women. Seems like if you scratch the surface of a proclaimed “reasonable” Republican and you’ll find this garbage.
Oh, and he doubles down in the comments:
I’m not even sure where to begin – sluts, mounting, find a black girlfriend?. It’s simply stunning – sexist and racist in one fell swoop. Tennessee Walker should be ashamed of himself. His post and comment are embarrassments.
There’s a story about the Treasurer’s Office – one that we’ve covered quite extensively – but Tennessee didn’t write one. In typical GOP fashion, he wrote a story about his misogynistic views and sex. It’s as if all he understands about the Flowers’ story is that there may have been a relationship. But hey, I get it. In Republicanland sex is focused on with the fervor and maturity of a twelve year old boy. Altho… most 12 year old boys have more sexual maturity that Tennessee displayed in this post.
FYI: This isn’t a post on the Treasurer’s Office and neither was Tennessee Walker’s.
