Luther Strange ignores Roy Moore question on appointment by Bentley

maybe strange needs to be neutralized and in a very public way, and very quickly?

it does not seem logical to me to accept it as inevitable that moore would lose in the general election. otoh i am however ignorant of alabama politics.

Moore is no novice at losing elections. He got beat by the Dem 2 to 1 in a race for governor and came in last among 4 Republicans in a later attempt.

swamp things

They hate Moore because he is an evangelical Christian, and is more on the Rand Paul side of things.

but imho if trump really wants to drain the swamp, he can’t do it by pouring more swamp water in...

So true, will tweet that to Trump.

Luther Strange had a very young and attractive campaign consultant who ended up getting a lot of money from him for consulting. (Jennifer.)

She got divorced from her husband. She filed notice with the court that she was moving to Bham from Tuscaloosa with her shared custody son. She gave the address of the house she was moving to in court documents in 2011. (Luther’s neighborhood when he lived in Bham.)

It was in an extremely wealth neighborhood. House valued at $450,000. But it wasn’t foreclosed on until 2012 and her “high bid” of $30,000 was accepted.

A blogger wrote about that. A friendly to Luther judge ordered him to take the post down and another post saying Jennifer and Luther had an affair. The blogger refused. The judge put him in jail. He lost his home to foreclosure.

Fast forward: Alabama governor Robert Bentley is embroiled in an affair with a much younger married woman from his church. He puts the mistress and her husband on the state payroll.

The mistress basically begins to run the state. Lots of illegal things happen, not the least of which is the governor being caught on tape in a serious sexual conversation with the young lady.

He and she are getting dark money and open a safe deposit box together. Everyone knows that to get something on the Bentley’s desk it goes through Rebecca. So money flowed.

The same blogger who broke the alleged Luther/Jennifer affair broke the news of what the elderly Governor of Alabama was doing with his hook up hottie. The Alabama media refused to touch it and gave the luv guv a free pass to continue raping the state.

Then the gov’s long suffering wife left her phone on record while she went on a beach walk and the lecherous old luv guv called his young mistress and proceeded to tell her what he wanted to do.

Someone unknown took the file to a gas station (on a jump drive) and called YellowHammer news, conservative news outlet in Alabama. (Former owner Cliff Sims now works for Trump.) Yellowhammer broke the story and then the chips all started falling.

But it took months for governor to get investigated. I mean, this just went on and on. Then Jeff Sessions was tapped for AG by Trump and Gov. Bentley took this opportunity to make a deal with Big Luther Strange.

Gov. appointed Luther to the senate and Luther called off the investigation into the gov and his mistress.

So it took even more months for things to be resolved. A new AG came in and got the gov. out, but a lot of people who did a lot of bad things walked because Luther called off the dogs.

The Gov. had members of his staff who knew about the affair targeted. He fired the head of the Alabama Law Enforcement, ALEA, Spencer Collier and accused him of stealing just to cover up his own crimes with his mistress and the dark money.

The gov attacked and sicked law enforcement on people who wrote about the affair. (This was blogger Roger Schuler and attorney David Watkins who broke the story first when no one else would.) Watkins owns a bank and Bentley had false investigations started on his bank.

There is soooo much more evil that went on and a lot of innocent people got hurt. And it went on far longer than it had to, all because Big Luther stop the investigation so he could be appointed senator.

Wow, I hated him even before all this but now, Moore has to win!

[Bodleian_Girl]

And I left a lot of stuff out!

He’s dirty!

He has a huge EPA bribery scandal right around the corner coming his way too.

[SteveH]

i am not in alabama. i suppose those who are need to do as their conscience dictates.

[greedo]

Trump's slimeball son-in-law apparently thinks that he can choose Alabama's next senator.

Strange Luther can ignore the question but the voters won’t.

[Bodleian_Girl]

Maybe Jared, who’s a democrat, is trying to insure that a democrat gets elected.

Thanks for posting that recap info on Dirty Luther, Dirty Luv Guv.

[Bodleian_Girl]

Welcome!

Jane.....that sort of ‘smut’ goes on throughout the political climate...just as it does all over other organizations, hospitals, companies etc. including CHURCHES.

Can we really be so stoic to think a large number of politicians aren’t going to stray in todays world? Of course they are. It’s personal and I frankly think sinful..but no greater than a liar or thief...and all politicians lie!

When are we going to look at the ‘abilities’ and the strength of a mans resolve ‘to do the job’ rather than get hung up on issues ONLY his wife and family can contend with. Sure it would be great if fidelity were still an issue in our country....but frankly it’s not.
