Too Morally Rigid

The Nashville Scene had a story of who Adam Dread is supporting for mayor and here is what he said about Buck Dozier.

Yet when it comes to Decision ’07, Adam Dread, who’s introduced himself as a “man of leisure” for the better part of a decade, has a weakness for fellow at-large Metro Council member Buck Dozier, a church of Christ patrician who counts reading theological literature among his favorite pastimes.

A match made in heaven? Probably not. But Dread says it was born out of loyalty. “When I was first running for office, Buck Dozier was the fire chief in 1999,” Dread recalls. “Buck took two hours, took more time than any other department head, to answer questions. I will never forget that.”


Dread says his support of Dozier—apparently Dozier’s first public commitment from a fellow council member to date—isn’t as odd as it might seem. They both point to business and public safety as key issues. “Buck really gets it when it comes to tourism,” Dread says.

Also in the Scene on Buck Dozier that he may be "too morally rigid" for Nashville's next mayor.

Too morally rigid? If that's the worst that's being said, the man's got my vote.
