Fmr. Congressman, US Senate candidate wins appointment
Ed Bryant, former U.S. Attorney, Tennessee Congressman, and U.S. Senate candidate, was sworn in as United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Tennessee this morning.
Bryant, an iconic conservative to many Tennesseans, ran unsuccessfully for U.S. Senate most recently in 2006 against former Congressman Van Hilleary and former Chattanooga Mayor Bob Corker. (Bryant received my vote in the Primary.)
Bryant has removed himself from many partisan circles in an attempt to receive this notable appointment.
I would like to commend and congratulate my friend for his work in Washington, D.C., his work in Tennessee, and now for his work in the Western District of Tennessee. He is a fair and honest man, and I think he will do an excellent job as Magistrate Judge in West Tennessee.
