6. Bama bred and born, right here
I graduated high school with honors. Graduated college with honors - 4.0, honors society, Summa Cum Laude. On track to get my second degree with a 4.0 as well. I'm married to the father of both of my children. I live in the suburbs and I don't drink, hoot or holler. ;)

It gets a bit annoying to see the anti-Alabama posts at times but I chalk that up to the ignorance of the poster. Alabama is a red state, yes, but she could turn blue in a minute if the Dems would concentrate on the average Alabamian.

When I was researching Dem groups for VOTE, I found that there were many, many Dem groups in Alabama. Enough so that I found myself wondering why Bama went red.

Yes, Bama has had her share of ignorant leaders. I read about some of them and cringe. She also has a nasty past and its hard to run from that. Many other states have the same horrible past sins and are plagued with stupid ass leaders today.

Most people from Alabama are good, hard-working people. The repubs cozy up to many of them and know how to sweet talk them into voting against their best interests. It happens in other states as well, folks, not just in Bama.

I've found that insulting people never convinces them that you are on the right side of an argument and they are on the wrong side.
