Trading in Alabama's Model 1901 Constitution

Nice angle on a century old car that has been "repaired" 772 times appears in the Anniston Star's coverage that I've stolen for my title. Alabama Citizens for Constitutional Reform is but one reality-based yet authentically Christ-like organization that is advocating for a brand new ride that might actually not transport the Big Mules. So can we hope? History is mostly knowing enough to not be surprised when it repeats. And I've written before on "The More Things Change ..."

Here's the latest "tool", and indeed "tool" applies with this Lowlander, as John Giles at Alabama's Christian Coalition is stepping up to do God's will. Tom Delay's and Ralph Reed's and Jack Abramoff's will has apparently been served! $850,000 goes even further when you are on the side that only needed a few fish and loaves to feed ... Maybe Mr. Giles can also minister in our Governor's office when Roy Moore (God's Warrior Judge) is annointed as Alabama's "Our Leader"?

Perhaps also the Alabama Farmer's Federation isn't aware that we Good American Red State Bubbas and Bubbettes love democracy plenty when we can get Bu$hCo to export it. A convention of elected delegates from the people is obviously far inferior to letting our outstanding polititicians create a constitution. "Lack of accountability is the problem not lack of funding!" always works for ALFA when they want to argue on tax issues. So are the politicians on Goat Hill accountable to the people or the special interests?

The really special Scottish snaps however go to Sandra Bell of the Alabama Association of Judeo-Christian Values. ("Love the Sinner, Hate Their Clothes" from Mrs. Betty Bowers, America's Best Christian, comes to mind ... and thus to keyboard. What Ms. Bell's "President's Message" is worth a visit yet in part she writes, "... On the surface, "Home Rule", as defined by the dictionary sounds good, however, once home rule is implemented, the people have given over their rights and power to local commisions, appointed boards, and municipalities, not elected officials. ..." Sandra also thanks God taxes weren't raised on Alabama citizens so I guess her God would not approve of Alabama Arise, the Masters in Theological Studies plus the teaching of Susan Pace Hamill at The University of Alabama's Law School, and certainly not the work of the distinguished and amazing Dr. Wayne Flynt at Auburn University and Auburn First Baptist and Samford and ... Here's just one example of Dr. Flynt's wisdom.

I am damned tired of these idiots and those that support/use them. If there's really a hell I would argue they'd not have to wait in line to enter! Peace ... or War!
