You gots to love the Fords!
I have a new favorite catch phrase: "What you're talkin' about ain't hittin' on nothin' with me" ...!
Sen. Ophelia Ford went a little, well, coo-coo during a committee meeting earlier this week:
"State Sen. Ophelia Ford of Memphis raised eyebrows during a legislative hearing Monday when she launched into a rant against child-protective service officials and a state auditor. ...
"Ford, a Democrat, pressed DCS officials about death certificates and other matters that seemed to have little relevance to the hearing, even though they told her repeatedly that their agency has nothing to do with death certificates.
"With her voice rising, Ford at one point called the officials' remarks "absolutely dumb" and said they 'make no sense.' She repeatedly told them, 'What you're talkin' about ain't hittin' on nothin' with me.'"
