Oh, come on. I mean, the right to privacy and all. <\sarcasm>

[bedolido]

sickening... I hate the death of virtue (not the book... the reality)

[laweeks]

Buggery is legal, so what's the problem? I'm sure it's somewhere there in the constitution along with abortion, penumbra, privacy, diversity, and sodomy. The door's open, pal.

[from occupied ga]

There ought to be some way to work in an Auburn joke here.

[Hank Rearden]

Alabama, huh? I'm shocked. Shocked, I am.

[wideawake]

Today, repulsive degeneracy.

Tomorrow, a constitutionally protected right.

"I told her she was stupid for marrying her own daddy,"

Well that's the understatement of the DECADE!!

[Naspino]

Actually this one might not make it to the supreme court; not sure I want it to. A real blood-blood incest case would be better. Incest laws are meant to discourage weakening of the gene pool and deforming babies.

Since they are just legally father/daughter then this doesn't seem to meet those objections. Its still disgusting though given the emotional manipulation that most likely took place.

And further down the slippery slope we slide.

[JennysCool]

Many, many years ago, when I was twenty three,
I got married to a widow who was pretty as could be
This widow had a grown- up daughter
Who had beautiful hair of red.
My father fell in love with her,
and soon the two were wed
This made my dad my son-in-law
and changed my very life.
My daughter was my mother
for she was my father's wife.
To complicate matters worse,
although it brought me joy,
I soon became the father
of a bouncing baby boy.
My little baby then became
a brother-in-law to dad.
And so became my uncle,
though it made me very sad.
For if he was my uncle, then
that also made him brother
To the widow's grown-up daughter
Who, of course, was my step-mother.
Father's wife then had a son,
who kept them on the run.
And he became my grandson,
for he was my daughter's son.
My wife is now my mother's mother
and it makes me all too blue,
Because, although, she is my wife,
she's my grandmother too.
If my wife is my grandmother,
Then I am her grandchild.
And, every time I try to think of it,
It simply drives me wild.
For, now I have become the strangest
case you ever saw.
As the husband of my grandmother,
I am also my own grandpa!

[NeoCaveman]

Looks like Santorum was right.

I'd love to hear how the Supremes can uphold this (anti-incest)law in light of the reasoning in Lawrence v. Texas.

[FeliciaCat]

There was a book a while back (The Kiss?) The author wrote about her own willing incestous relationship with her father.

I cant even begin to imagine how messed up you have to be to marry your own father...yuck.

[dead]

A Theodore husband and wife may really be father and daughter…Alice sometimes called Carrol "Daddy" and sometimes just "Carrol."

Well, we’ve got Carrol and Alice from Ted.

Where's Bob?

"I told her she was stupid for marrying her own daddy," Shirley Crayne said. "I told him he was crazy and stupid. I told her I didn't ever want to hear from her again."

Now, just look what you've done, Gary. ROFL.

;-)

[Im Your Huckleberry]

"I told her she was stupid for marrying her own daddy," Shirley Crayne said.

Only in Alabama could you read a line like that...

[bourbon]

I think the criminal defense atty. hired or assigned to defend this case would have the obligation to raise a constitutional defense to his client's prosecution. This is sad, but it is the strange fruit of the Lawrence v. Texas ruling.
(Yes, I meant to say "strange fruit." The choice of words was no accident.) :-)

[CholeraJoe]

I would have expected this in Walker or Lowndes counties, not Mobile.

[johnb838]

Who are we to judge?

[ellery]

They should form a club with Woody and Soon-yi.

[ClearCase_guy]

Well ... the sodomy ... it happens.
Well ... the incest ... it happens.
Well ... the bigamy ... it happens.

But don't worry -- nobody's EVER going to try to marry their dog! Trust me!
