Alabama's first openly gay lawmaker threatens to 'out' officials having extramarital affairs
The Birmingham News ^ | January 26, 2015 | Kent Faulk

Alabama's first openly gay state legislator fired back on Facebook over the weekend, including a threat to expose the affairs of state officials, to comments made by Republican Party officials in the wake of a federal judge declaring the state ban on same-sex marriage unconstitutional.

State Rep. Patricia Todd, D-Birmingham, said she was elated and in "shock" when the judge issued the order overturning Alabama's same-sex marriage ban.

But after seeing comments by Republican officials, particularly from Alabama Speaker of the House Mike Hubbard, and seeing Attorney General Luther Strange's efforts to get a stay of the judge's orders, Todd fired off an emotional Facebook post making a threat to expose politicians' dalliances.

"This (is) a time where you find out who are accepting, loving people. To say I am disappointed in Speaker Hubbard comment's and Attorney General Strange choice to appeal the decision is an understatement. I will not stand by and allow legislators to talk about 'family values' when they have affairs, and I know of many who are and have. I will call our elected officials who want to hide in the closet OUT," Todd stated in her Facebook post over the weekend.

Todd would not name, at least yet, anyone she was referring to in her Facebook post regarding affairs....

Her ugliness is quite impressive. It’s at a level hard to achieve unless one was trying very hard.

What is wrong with Alabama voters?

Every state has these pockets - I would bet she was elected from a district in or near a college campus.

On this particular spin, I am in agreement with the lesbian! Not about the same-sex marriage stuff, but about the adulterous scandals in politics being WRONG!

Not that the lesbian should call them out, but they, the adulterers, DAMN sure shouldn’t be having affairs! It could undermine their obligations to the voters, because they can be blackmailed (see what is happening)!

Our politicians cannot and will not be pristine and perfect, but if you are out and out living an adulterous life, then expect bad things to happen (like the truth being exposed)!!

14 Patty Cake lives with her wife, Jennifer Clarke. What is wrong with Alabama voters?

Same story as the rest of the nation - local politics. While AL is a red state, Birmingham, where Pat Todd resides, is an urban, socialist craphole. It is 72% black and is heavily influenced by the cultural Marxists who dominate the University of Alabama-Birmingham and The Birmingham News.

Back in the 1950’s, due to being stationed at Ft. McClellan outside of Anniston, I spent many happy times in Birmingham.

As the years rolled past the Pittsburgh of the South has changed dramatically.

There is one very good senator from Alabama, however, and his name is Jeff Sessions.

“A couple weeks back a FB friend of mine (a Liberal) started up a discussion with his fellow Libs about how they were going to out Lindsay Graham ... and how much of a shock it was going to be to Conservatives.”

When the KGB tried to blackmail Indonesian president Sukarno with tapes of him with Russian women dressed as airline stewardess's he was pleased. He ordered extra copies so he could show them to his friends back home:)
