Conservatives in the Wild
Mississippi politics are fascinating, parochial affairs, and we enjoyed it.
Alabama politics are fascinating train wrecks of ideology and back-door, smoke filled compromises.
Today, the Christian Coalition of Alabama announced that it is severing ties with the national, parent organization because of it's "left leaning issues." The president of the Alabama organization declares that this is the work of "our adversaries."
I haven't quite reckoned what this could mean to the ultra-hard right in the South, but I think competing ultra-hard right groups in the state must be a good thing for the forces of social justice.

Gosh, that's scary. It's almost like they're mindlessly trying to be as conservative as possible, devil-may-care what those ideologies manifest themselves to be. Almost like that, I'm sure. :)
Isn't that kind of like the one-cuppers disfellowshipping the folks with the kitchen in the building?
