Bredesen calls GOP Senate budget plan 'stupid'
TimesNews.net/Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Several lawmakers who attended a leadership meeting with Gov. Phil Bredesen say the Democrat characterized Senate Republicans' budget proposal as "stupid."

The GOP proposal would remove funding for the state to acquire land for a West Tennessee megasite that would be used to attract large manufacturers and more jobs to the state.

It would also scuttle Bredesen's plan to spend $62 million in federal stimulus money to build a solar generation plant at the site near Brownsville and establish a solar research institute at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville.
