"We couldn't do anything," Marshall said. "(A legislator) could go through your hometown at 100 mph and you can't even give him a ticket."

Hey, the senate pro tem (One sleazeball by the name of Lowell Barron), got stopped for speeding once on the interstate and immediately introduced legislation intended to stop municipal police from writing tickets on the interstate.

This sleazy POS rides around the state in a black state-owned SUV, driven by a State Trooper.

This at a time when there are only 2-4 troopers on duty in the entire state between 12 midnight and 6 AM, due to a shortage of trropers.

An accident during the week, after 10 PM will get you at least a 3 hour wait for a trooper to respond, if they ever do. Guess it's more important to be standing by to chaufeur Mr. Barron around.

Oh, did I mention he's a stinking dimocrat, also?

As far as Mr. Holmes is concerned, another stinking dimocrat, and a particulary racist, bigoted and partisan one at that. A professional state tit-sucker, been a politician for nearly 30 years, I think. And woe is the poor deputy. He'll be turning keys in the county jail next week for having the temerity to mess with the great Alvin Holmes.

Politics in Alabama really, really does suck.

This bunch of idiots is in session (dimorat majority, by the way), and the only thing they have accomplished is to issue ridiculous proclamations on the Governors (Republican) State of the State address.

Bunch of worthless dumbasses.

" (One sleazeball by the name of Lowell Barron),"

Whew! You nailed it. Ol' Alvin doesn't show up for "The Show" until about 4:00 and then, he virtually takes over the legislature. The rest of the goats on the hill act like they are afraid of him. He rants and raves about what lobbyists do for the goats, but he is first in line to get it for him, his wife, his kids, and his girlfriends. This august body used to pull the plug on the clock when state law mandated that sessions end at a certain time on a certain day. Time marched on, and so did the legislature.
