Moore accuses Bush of trying to stop him from winning primary

MONTGOMERY - Former state Chief Justice Roy Moore said President Bush visited Alabama Wednesday to try to stop Moore from winning the Republican primary election for governor. The presidential visit was a "political payback" for Gov. Bob Riley's blind support and an attempt to interfere in the upcoming election, a statement issued by Moore's campaign read. [...]

This comes on the heels of the revelation from his camp that the recent bill signed into law in Alabama to track mad cow disease is some sort of gummint plot.

Whatever. It's become an increasingly common ploy amongst certain folks who don't get enough attention; that being the delusion that they're so important that the REALLY important people are trying to shut them up.

Hey, rooster--just because you think you make the sun come up when you crow doesn't mean it's so.

What really aggravates me about Roy is he is forcing me to go vote in the Republican Primary and therefore violate one of my central tenets--have no political party affiliation. But I know Roy's supporters will show up on primary day and I would rather have dandy Don back as governor.

Yeah, I know. It irks me as well having to go mess with those people. I might just not go, and then if he does manage to get nominated, I'll just write myself in instead.

I think Dr. Possum would be a good governor.

While I would definitely cast my vote for Dr. Possum, I am curious: what party would we get to nominate a marsupial? Too bad it is so hard to start a third party with any chance of winning.

Just how is it Bush’s fault that Roy has trouble adjusting his tin foil hat?

It just is. And that's that.

I fear that Dr. Smith has slandered thetinhat brigade.

The best thing I can say about Roy is that he doesn’t get to eastern Carolina much. Y’all however are welcomed to him.
