Murphy Monkey Goes Green?

While eating breakfast at a popular local eatery, the Murphy Murphy went green. It wasn't because of the delicious food that they serve but the monkey discovered while chatting with his friends and watching television that our presumptive republican presidential nominee, John McCain supports the green effect and that global warming is real. Propping up this unverifiable phenomenon means that you go green. McCain's strategic move away from the current Bush administration is supposedly making him look more un-Bush-like or less-conservative or should I say, mod-er-ate?
I'm guessing on my part that he believes the conservative vote is a shoe-in, that he doesn't need to work to get it that he's got it, but does he? The water cooler conversation says much more.

Whatever the reason, it's not the first time he has played this scenario with politics and issues. Read up on the following as a refresher:
"McCain-Feingold — the most brazen frontal assault on political speech since Buckley v. Valeo.
McCain-Kennedy — the most far-reaching amnesty program in American history.
McCain-Lieberman — the most onerous and intrusive attack on American industry — through reporting, regulating, and taxing authority of greenhouse gases — in American history.
McCain-Kennedy-Edwards — the biggest boon to the trial bar since the tobacco settlement, under the rubric of a patients’ bill of rights.
McCain-Reimportantion of Drugs — a significant blow to pharmaceutical research and development, not to mention consumer safety................."

Read article: McCain urges free-market principles to reduce global warming by the Associated Press. The title in itself is a contradiction and is in opposition to our free-market way of doing things in this country.
Maybe next week Senator McCain and the Murphy Murphy will go red or orange or even a combination of colors. What's your favorite COLOR?

Move over Grassman, here comes Granny!

Have you called your grandmother today? You may discover that she has applied for a job as Deputy Director or Director of the Public Works Department in Birmingham, Alabama.


According to Alfred "Buddy" Smith Jr., board member of Birmingham's personnel board, he said, "If there weren't minimum requirements, someone could appoint their grandmother."

This all came to light when Mayor Langford of Birmingham "submitted an application for Kennedy" who in the past was a landscape supervisor and laborer. Now he has been rushed to the front of the pack to direct and "manage a multimillion dollar budget." If Mr. Kennedy is applying for the job then granny had better get a move on!

See and read article in the Birmingham News today.

Cigarettes don't suck, people do! What?

That may be a thing of the past after Governor Bob Riley signs the no smoking ban on the last day of the legislative session according to a report from MSNBC. Read article: Smoking Ban To Be Considered By State Lawmakers On Final Day.

Remember the old saying that guns don't kill people, people do? No one holds a gun to our head to make us smoke. We make that choice, right or wrong. A cigarette will not burn unless someone lights it and inhales. This bill bans smoking in indoor buildings. This is just another way that government controls our lives. How did we get this far with government intervening in our lives one little piece at a time? On a much larger scale we can consider the GLOBAL WARMING issue that we hear of late in the news our international BAN ON SMOKING.

You've gotta love him. . .

. . . Jim Folsom, Jr. that is and you can still get a t-shirt to show your support by going to Amazon.com.
This week the Montgomery Advertiser reported, that "Republican Sens. Scott Beason of Gardendale and Hank Erwin of Montevallo said Folsom broke the rules." "He absolutely looked the other way and broke the Constitution," Beason said. He's referring to a bill that would have allowed the growth of gambling.

Something similar happened like this last year. Should we expect anything less from our elected representative?
