If you haven’t visited our favorite Libertarian blogger in awhile, Loretta Nall, click here now! She’s exposing a major loophole in the campaign of Artur Davis who says he is running for governor of Alabama to make change.

Somehow we don’t think continuing to let Alabama Power make environmental policy in Alabama is much of a change. We don’t think allowing ATnT to continue cooperating with the NSA in spying on innocent American citizens makes for change. And we don’t think ignoring a large block of Alabama’s progressive voters is much change from the politics of the past in this state.

What power brokers is Davis talking about who he blames for criticism of him in this election so far? Certainly he is not talking about his and Karl Rove’s buddy Bill Canary over at the conservative Business Council of Alabama, where they fight tooth and nail for the status quo. Is he talking about Paul Hubbert and/or Joe Reed at AEA? The trial lawyers? I mean hey, Artur, why don’t you just come out and say it?

And here’s a note to The Birmingham News…

which we assume will wholeheartedly endorse Davis in the Democratic primary and then promptly stab him in the back in the general election. Did you know Davis is using your reporters who have joined his Facebook cause in his Facebook ads — as supporters of his campaign?

Now in any other state in the union, that would be the subject of a major media ethics controversy. But not in Alabamaland, where there’s no such thing as media criticism and the Newhouse press owns most of the presses.

They even managed to ignore the criticism of them and the Justice Department in Washington, D.C. at the National Press Club. I mean, what gives? Not one word about it in the paper? On the al.com Website?

What, do you guys think if a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, it didn’t make a sound? Or, since you are killing all the trees, maybe you think it doesn’t make a sound just because it wasn’t printed on ink and paper?

A majority of Alabamians may still not be online, but more and more every day are beginning to realize they’ve been hoodwinked by your paternalism for way too many years. Get on with the truth-telling program, or get out of the fucking way…
