This whole referandum that is going to be held Tuesday in Alabama is a croak of sh...well you know the rest. I swear this is why I HATE partisanship in Alabama because all it is about is a bunch of clusterfucking of both sides of the do-nothing cause. Note: Alabama's legislators really don't do anything when compared to their federal counterparts, and that let's you know who truly lazy Alabama's legislative branch is.
Now there is this fear-mongering campaign being led by a variety of special interests and the Alabama Republican Party establishment that wants to pass this so that the state can transfer $437 million from its rainy day fund to cover their asses literally and politically. Also it will cost Alabama $3 million additional dollars in funds to just hold this election. However, the some Alabama Democrats and even stranger bedfellows are against it. Their motives is to trying to make their Republican counterparts work. Also there are some Alabama Republicans that doesn't support this either, but that is another conversation.
The reality caveat is that when Alabama Democrats were in charge they didn't do anything. This is another 3-ring circus that the vast majority of Alabamians perpetuate upon themselves by not doing their homework when electing local representation in the Alabama Legislature.
Le sigh! I need to be truly done with this place...
The discussion of social issues and happenings across the South (sometimes the nation). Along with some rants about things such as the media (radio, TV, and internet), music, etc. from a socially progressive yet politically independent perspective.
