...and Larry P. Langford, the local official who signed off on the deals.



Then I have litte sympathy for the people of Jefferson County, who put the corrupt and shiftless Langford into power. This con artist has been lining his and his crony's coffers with taxpayer dollars for almost 40 years. The idiot populace of Birmingham, who vote based on race rather than merit, deserve what they get.

The only ones I do feel somewhat sorry for would be the outer edges of JeffCo, who don't vote for this twit. However, they're the ones who ran away from the city in the 60's and took their votes with them, and now the fruits of that exodus are coming home to roost.

Those who migrated to Shelby County are no doubt laughing.

I’m planning a house in Jemison ... caught between the rock (Montgomery, capital and socialist haven) and the hard place (Birmingham, the biggest ‘city’ in Alabama and thoroughly lost to liberalism). Larry is a typical black democrat politician steeped in entitlements, as the Obama candidacy is showing us ... isn’t it Barry who stamped all opposed to him as ‘typical’?

Loud and long, and continuously.

I moved back here in 1999, after being gone almost 30 years, to take care of my ailing mother. She lived in Jefferson, in a house too small for the two of us and too inconveniently laid out for her infirmities. So we entered the housing market. I adamantly refused to buy in Jefferson County, and took an enormous amount of flack from her and from the rest of the family, from old and new friends, but I refuse to give one red cent more than absolutely required to fund those bozos.

It's bad enough to pay state taxes so the crooks on Goat Hill can line their pockets - I refuse to compound the idiocy by supporting Langford and Company.

What surprises me is that there is not more outrage. Our idiot voters either don't care or are totally inured to graft and corruption.
