Yes, but us backward, snuff dippin', redneck, country bumpkin, relative marrying, dumber than a brick Alabamians just distrust them just a little more.

[MissAmericanPie]

I'm in Texas and havn't been polled either, perhaps Alabama was the only one with the nerve to authorize such a poll. Good for them.

Seems like the good folks of Alabama have their instincts honed perfectly. Maybe I'll move there.

Sounds OK to me, I am moving there tomorrow. See you there. Alabama seems to be a perfect state for a dejected Ca conservative.

[Have Ruck - Will Travel]

Don't forget Mississippi. We even kept our flag intact.

Osama Bin Laden is the best known representative of religious conservatism in general. Remember that Osama does not represent all Muslims, only the most fanatical Muslim fundamentalists. Liberal and moderate Muslims think he's a freak.

If thats so,why isnt there an American flag on every US Mosque? How about a United We Stand bumper sticker on US Muslims cars? How about the deafening silence out the US and World Muslim camp condemning unequivocally the violence? Islam sucks and I dont care what anyone thinks of me for saying that.

Actually, Alabama has been misportrayed for years as being backward and a holdout on the Old South. Nothing is farther from the truth. The current Alabama is diverse with many many people from all over the world. One of my best friends and workmates is Egyption, several other workmates are from China, United Araab Emorates, and Pakistan.

Alabama is filled with high tech companies, research scientists, engineers, the best hospitals with the leading edge doctors and surgeons. People here will still speak to you on the street. They are friendly and most will help others in real need. Alabama is now a great place to live...

..and, gone is the Old South.

[Alas Babylon!]

Where are you moving to?

[ChadGore]

This makes me sick.

Osama blows up New York and these guys prostilitize on that.

The last time I was in Andalusia and Opp I didn't see any PC crapola and the loss of Dixie.

[lwoodham]

Lol, That's north Florida, not Alabama.

[Righty1]

I guess people from Alabama still have some self preservation instinct left.

[Pearls Before Swine]

What's so special about Alabama on this issue? Don't the good people of the other 49 states feel the same way?

This is yet another Muslim propaganda piece, attempting to do its drip-drip-drip of manipulation by playing the prejudice/guilt-trip card.

[lwoodham]

Hey, we got it going on down here, and the cost of living is way way low.

[lwoodham]

Certainly not Californicatia.

[TJFLSTRAT]

Once again the "loving" Moslems are desperate to set themselves up as the victims. The good people of Alabama know that Islam just plain sucks.

[roachie]

Florida? Them's fightin' words! ;)

[lwoodham]

Tell it brother. Tell it all. Halleluia. Amen.

[lwoodham]

Lol, thought you'd be glad that I redrew the state line to give you Opp and Andulusia.

[Righty1]

Don't tell anyone or it will get ruined like NV.

[roachie]

Nah, I'd prefer them to not be in Texas :) That's the whole point of getting out of this wet and soggy swampy part to go on holiday ;)
