Don’t Tell Me How to Vote, Louisiana
Dear Geoff,
My name is Helaine. I live in Louisiana. I recently read a blog on the Alex King site. It pertained to high gas prices. It was around August 2005 I think. Anyway, I want to ask you to do 2 things for me.1. Vote for Judge Roy Moore for Governor
and
2. Take a look at [URL deleted] It may help you with your gas needs, and you may be a networker and need a great business opp, and this one has great timing, with these gas prices soaring higher and higher!
THX and let me hear from you!

Okay, Helaine, this is how you’ll hear from me:
- If you think I’m idiot enough to vote for a wrap-myself-in-God-and-the-flag type like Moore, you don’t know jack crap about me. I’ve voted against the patronizing blowhard at every opportunity. The man perverts the Gospel and baits God-fearing Christians into a frenzy. No, ma’am, I’m not voting for him. I haven’t decided yet whether I’m voting for Bob Riley or Lucy Baxley, but I well imagine that I’ll vote for Riley in the primary as I expect that Don Siegelman will blow up before the Democratic primary. [Hey, I'd vote in the Democratic primary if I though the Don was a threat. I almost went to jail for protesting the guy's policies when he was in office before.]
- Don’t spam me.
- Mind your own damn business, lady. I don’t need people Louisiana, a state which is way more fucked up politically than my own, telling me how to vote.
I’m tempted to report her as a spammer, too. ![]()
I’m fearful of the fact that, theoretically, we could have a governor’s race that features Jim Folsom, Jr. (R) vs. George Wallace, Jr. (D)
*shudder*
I don’t see one viable candidate for the state’s top office this year. I’m sad.

I think Riley and Baxley are both pretty decent … for Alabama politicians. I support most of what Riley’s tried to do, and Baxley hasn’t really hacked me off with anything that she’s done.
April 13th, 2006 at 12:01 pmPlease report her, please, please!
April 13th, 2006 at 12:59 pmYeah, if for no other reason than spelling my name wrong.
April 13th, 2006 at 1:00 pmIt could be your stage name!
Geoff - The extra “f” is for “funky!”
April 13th, 2006 at 7:02 pmgeof, why do you use the ‘f’ word so much? is it because people stick an extra ‘f’ on your name so you put it to good use?
April 14th, 2006 at 9:57 amIt’s because I suck, Bryan.

One of the things I’ve taken to doing lately is going through UpperRoom.org’s devotional every morning as part of this insane checklist I do every day. [You laugh, but I get a lot done because of this checklist.] UR ain’t perfect…
