If What You Say in Public and Private is the Same, No Worries Scottie Mayfield

A story first broke yesterday at Times Free Press after Scottie Mayfield, one time Congressional Candidate and Executive with Mayfield Dairies went to the paper to say that he had welcomed Weston Wamp, current Republican candidate for U.S. Congress in Tennessee’s Third District for a visit.

After the meeting, Wamp apparently informed Mayfield that the conversation was recorded. I believe that as long as one party is aware and has given permission, recordings are legal. (I am willing to correct that, if proven wrong by the laws on the books. I mean NSA records without any ones permission.) Scottie need not think this the first time a recording has occurred at his home, with Obama and NSA it likely wasn’t the first.

There are a couple of reasons, I believe Wamp may have recorded the conversation. One for his own security, so that Mayfield could not say that Wamp said something other than what was said or that Mayfield could not say that Wamp was lying about something Mayfield is reported to have said. This conversation was a private conversation until Mayfield ran to the paper and made it public.

Lesson learned for Scottie if what you say in private is what you say in public or if the comments can be defended then you are not consumed with fear of a recording.
