When I was a young man, I heard one of my elders refer to someone as “the truth just ain’t in ’em”

Well, that would justly apply to the Knox Charter Petition group. The stood before the Knox County Commission at the Wednesday workshop and said they did not know who Strategic Partners is. Strategic Partners contributed $5,000.00 nearly 10% of the money the group has raised.

Now we find out that former Knoxville Chamber Partnership President Raja Jubran is the leader of Strategic Partners. They expect us to believe that Laurens Tullock, Kathy Hamilton, Jim McClain, Attorney Tom McAdams, Brad Hill, Mary Lou Kanipe and all the pro-metro/unified government members of Knox Charter Petition did not know that Raja Jubran gave $5,000.00. I call that bull and believe that the saying from years ago apply on this situation. “The truth ain’t in ’em”
