Dear Alabama, please show your up-turned middle finger to the Rat republicans in DC and the Washington Post, on election day.

I almost afraid to ask this question but, what was the marriageable age for women in 1979 Alabama?

I live back in the woods, you see
My woman and the kids, and the dogs, and me
I got a shotgun, a rifle, and a 4-wheel drive
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

I can plow a field all day long
I can catch catfish from dusk ‘til dawn
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke, too
Ain’t too many things these old boys can’t do
We grow good old tomatoes and homemade wine
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

Because you can’t starve us out
And you can’t make us run
‘Cause we’re them old boys raised on shotgun
And we say “grace” and we say “Ma’am”
And if you ain’t into that we don’t give a damn.

Not that I would want to do so, but I could never run for office. I am in my sixties, and deep oppo-research would reveal that when I was a teenager, I dated teenage girls, and I am a male.

“Voters in this state have a history of ignoring sexual misconduct,” says Larry Powell, a professor of communications studies at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, a political consultant and the author of books on state politics. “They voted for Trump, and he still has strong support in this state.”

What sexual misconduct was Trump guilty of?

This is as simple as the people of ‘Bama know a hit job when they see one.

I had one who had married a few weeks shy of 14. The grainy old photos show that she was drop dead beautiful even well into her old age. Family legend has it that her beau (my 2x great grandfather) had left a wagon train to join a band of Sioux Indians could only be lured back to the white man life with a girl so beautiful.

Benjamin Franklin had observed in roughly the century before that almost any whites who were adopted into the local Indian tribes would want to go back the first chance they got after being "rescued" by other whites. OTOH, any Indians raised as whites would want to return to their tribe of origin once they learned just how hard the white man's lifestyle was compared to their own.

His observation was only slightly less true a century later. Jim Thorpe, Chief Bender, Carl Curtis and other famous Indians who had done well in white man's world in the first half of the following century left similar observations.

It was only when the destructive forces of alcohol, drugs and FDR's programs were unleashed that this begin to change into the sorry state of life on the Reservations that we have today. But a few tribes even got past that.

Well, you see, the big people told us that sexual misconduct is totally okay in the highest office. Too bad that they can’t stand their own standards.
