Alabama Potpourri

So, I enjoy listening to this supreme right wing talk station run out of Birmingham (and by supreme, I mean I give this station credit for defeating the governor's tax plan last fall, just by repeating over and over, taxes are unpatriotic). Well if there is one thing supreme right wing Alabamans love it is NASCAR. And if there is one thing they hate it is, naturally, anyone questioning the supreme authority of President Bush.

Loved this on the Matt Murphy show today.

Matt Murphy took a break from bashing John Kerry to discuss the unthinkable. Dale Earnhardt Jr., wearer of the 3 and the 8, was seen this weekend, going into the movie theater to watch... Fahrenheit 9/11. And he'd dragged his whole crew, too. Could it be that Earnhardt was secretly a "commie pinko liberal tree-hugger"??

Benevolently, Murphy was ready to give Earnhardt the benefit of the doubt. "Perhaps he was just going to get ammunition to attack the enemy," he said.

But then the triumphant, "Personally," Murphy said, "I have always been a supporter of Jeff Gordon."
