I wrote the original blog the day before the legislative session was to end. I was pretty much in an uproar then, but now these clowns have really shown their true colors. I had to go back and do a small addendum to the original. These elected, paid officials are taking us to the bank and they do not care what we think. They are insulated. They spend money like it grows on trees. Riley anounced that he would call a special session to try and get the education budget done so our teachers can get paid and we can keep our school systems open. These characters knew what they were doing the last month by not getting their priority business taken care of. They were required to pass this budget by written law that is on the books. Do they care that they just broke a law that they had written. What happened to you the last time you broke a law no matter how miniscul and without intent? They sit on their hands for thirty or forty days knowing fulwell what would happen. Riley called the special session at a cost to you and I of $500,000.00. It sickens me. Our school adminisrtators are scrambling to try and figure out a way to survive while these premadonnas bask in each others glory. They know we forget and that is why they aren't worried. Just one more example and I will stop ranting. I know from a very reliable source that was an intern at the statehouse for two years, that the liquor room at the statehouse has more liquor in it than most state stores. They actually stock each legislators favorite liquor on site. This is not bring your own bottle, this is furnished at tax payers expense. So when see these poor soles laboring into the night over something that should have been taken care of months ago, don't feel sorry for these outlaws. They can just belly up to the bar and have a drink on us and laugh. Most of them should be nominated for Oscars. Honor, ethics, morals, trustworthiness, character, are all words that should be associated with someone holding public office, but our legislature is the mirror opposite. These people would not know an honest days work if it hit them in the nose. I know that there are some who mean well and try to do the right thing, but they must remember they are a part of a group that overwhelmingly have failed the people of the State of Alabama. One word......"remember"!

Amen! They have failed us more than one time and will contiune until we as tax paying citizens stand up and get them all out of office so we can put some more of the lazy, good for nothing dead beats in there so we can vote them out also. They all look like they are have drunk and could care less what the people of this state. I am tired of paying taxes and get no results from the hard earned money they we pay them. We need to go down to the special sessions and ask for our money back.

Don't ever stop ranting about wrong doing! Years ago they only met every two years but claimed they couldn't be effective unless they met every year. If they met every year they would be more effective and save us money! HAH! The solution is simple. If a person you hire to do a job doesn’t do it, or does it half way what happens? Do you pay him more to come back and finish or do it right the second time? NO! That person comes back and corrects the mistakes or finishes the job on HIS/HER own dime! And that’s the way it should be with these clowns. We pay them to do a job, if they fail to do it in the time line provided they should have to stay and do it on their own time, no pay! What makes them special? NOTHING! They are paid too much not to get their work done. If they want to goof off and play around then they are going to have to do the job on their on time without pay! Now see how fast things get done.

I wish I could say to my boss, "I'm going to sit on my butt until I get overtime." She'd kick me out the door faster than I could run. And that's what we need to do to these so-called "representatives." They represent no one but themselves.

Is there a way that we the people can call for a referendum to vote them out of office?

i think we need to have each and everyone arrested at one time and then they can sit in jail and discuss and pass the budget so the teachers will have a job. then it would be worth the pay to have them to sit in jail and discuss the issues instead of paying them to sit in nice comfortable place, when they are depriving others from the comforts that they enjoy

suehasclue, maybe we should at least take away their chairs and make them stand at their desks. The least those clowns (sorry to insult Bozo, folks) could do is send a letter to the editor of their local newspaper and apologize for wasting the people's money. Seriously, they should not be paid for the special session.
