Alabama Governor Robert Bentley...sworn in, and Governor of ALL?

This past week, we Alabamians watched or attended the inauguration of Doctor Robert Bentley as Alabama's newly elected Governor.  The swearing in process was quite interesting.  All photos shown in this post are courtesy of Fred Marshall, one of my friends and a professional photographer.  

I listened to the speeches of our new Governor, Doctor Robert Bentley, and found his speech to be quite impressive.  I was also impressed by the speech of Young Boozer, our newly elected State Treasurer.  Here is another amazing photo courtesy of Fred Marshall, professional photographer.  

Congratulations to the both of you....may you serve us Alabamians with honesty and openness.

ANOTHER GREAT "DNA EXONERATED" STORY...MAN FREED AFTER 30 YEARS IN PRISON!!

I have said it all along...we are putting people in prison for crimes they did not commit...and we should be ASHAMED for ruining people's lives... http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20110104/ap_on_re_us/us_dna_exoneration   

Cornelius Dupree Jr., was sentenced in 1980 for Rape and Robbery charges he was not guilty of...

One sweet end to the story, BESIDES Cornelius being exonerated for a crime  he didn't commit, was GETTING MARRIED one day after his exoneration.  Congratulations, Mr. Dupree!
