Oh the south


MOBILE, Ala. - Reynolds Smith Jr. was a stalwart Democratic voter. But the Alabama Democratic Party overlooked another fact when it appointed Smith to an interim party panel: He died in November at age 83. Party executive director Jim Spearman told the Press-Register on Tuesday that the mistake was caused by outdated records. He said the party received Smith's name from a 2006 list of candidates for the Mobile County committee and then used a voter list to verify him as an active voter.

Only in Alabama. How could you not know the guy was dead? I mean honestly. If he isn't around, hasn't uttered a word in 11 months, and doesn't show up to your meetings I would think you should maybe see what the hell is going on. If dead people are allowed in politics let's bring back my boy Andrew Jackson. All you history buffs out there know this guys was a veto machine. He didn't take shit from anyone. When he was pissed you know what he did? He got the U.S. Army to push the Indians into Oklahoma. That's called bringing the noise. That's why Alabama is 52nd out of 50 states in education. We made up two states to help put into perspective just how far behind they are. My goodness.

Oh, one more thing. These are actual laws on the Alabama legislative books:

1. Bear wrestling matches are prohibited.
2.
It is legal to drive the wrong way down a one-way street if you have a lantern attached to the front of your automobile.
3.
It is illegal to wear a fake moustache that causes laughter in church.
4.
You may not have an ice cream cone in your back pocket at any time.
5.
Boogers may not be flicked into the wind.
