Republicans have made a tranformation I don't fully understand, from rock-ribbed Bush backers to embarrassed by Bush's big-spending ways. To help me understand this change, I am inviting local conservatives to submit essays in response to the question below.

Steve Gill goes on a straight rant against Tom Leatherwood’s role in the Great Income Tax Debate. Gill takes issue with John Rodgers’ article in the City Paper which portrays Marsha Blackburn and Leatherwood as equally against the income tax:
