TROY KING FAILS TO ACTION TO STOP GAMBLING
Debate Stirs in Ala. Over Best Way to Reduce Gambling
Alabama Attorney General Troy King and the head of Christian Coalition of Alabama have traded criticism on how to best reduce gambling in the state.
The Coalition president said instead of filing a lawsuit against a bingo hall 20 miles west of Montgomery and allowing it to remain open during litigation, King should have shut it down, putting the burden on the accused to prevent the action.
"In my view this operation should have been immediately raided, the doors closed, the machines impounded, criminal penalties enforced and the defendants forced to seek their own injunction to reopen," Giles wrote. According to the Associated Press, Giles stated in the letter written to King last Friday that "I have ignored my passionate feelings about this situation because of our friendship, but as president of the CCA I must be honest, I am very disappointed with the lack of tenacity and leadership that has been shown in bringing a halt to a

d. WEAK ON PORNOGRAPHY. Where is the law enforcement and leadership to take action against those who illegally pedal Porn. Not since the days of Jimmy Evans and Charlie Graddick has Alabama had an Attorney General who took active action to shut down pornography.
e. WEAK ON TOBACCO. Troy King follows his mentor Bill Pryor in being cozy to Tobacco Companies. While 30 state Attorney Generals signed a "Anti Smoking Pledge", Troy King refuses. Troy King declined to add his name to an effort led by 30 state attorney generals to urge Hollywood to put anti-smoking announcements at the beginning of films. It is a know fact that the Tobacco settlement money, under liberal Bill Pryor, that Alabama got was less money than other states. Troy King is apparently following the trend of being cozy to the tobacco companies. Read more at:

GLENN MURDOCK, CONSERVATIVE JUDGE, ANNOUNCES FOR SUPREME COURT
Montgomery, Ala. Glenn Murdock is seeking the spot now held by Justice Bernard Harwood, a Republican who is retiring. Murdock will face former Supreme Court Justice Jean Brown in the Republican primary on June 6.
Several lobbyists for business organizations attended Murdock's announcement, along with Supreme Court Justice Tom Parker, a former aide to ousted Supreme Court Justice Roy Moore and the candidate who defeated Brown in her re-election bid for the Supreme Court last year.
Tom Parker, Alabama Supreme Court Justice, said Murdock was one of the attorneys who successfully defended Moore when he was a circuit judge in Gadsden and was being sued over displaying a homemade plaque of the Ten Commandments in his courtroom. "He just has bona fide evangelical legal credentials," Parker said.

ALABAMA SECRETARY OF STATE ISSUES GUIDANCE ENCOURAGING COUNTY REGISTRARS TO REGISTER ILLEGAL ALIENS TO VOTE
Alabama to Register Illegals to Vote!
This is incredible. Alabama's Secretary of State Nancy Worley (a Democrat) is telling the county registrars to register people to vote, even if they are not United States citizens. You can read about this at: The Suppressed Blog. by Brad Taylor
MO BROOKS comments:
Amendment 579 of the Alabama Constitution gives the right to vote to United States citizens. Nancy Worley's instruction that registrars may not make further inquiry about a prospective voter's nationality undermines the ability of registrars to properly determine whether a voter applicant is a U.S. citizen and opens a Pandora's box of problems.
It also creates a risk that votes by legal and illegal aliens may determine the outcome of otherwise close elections in Alabama and encourages illegal aliens to obtain voter registration cards if for no other reason than to obtain evidence of citizenship that can be used for job applications.
