A random amalgamation of stuff
Alabama's House delegation split 4-3 last week against the "ban on cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment of prisoners in American custody" sponsored by U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz, today's Mobile Register reports. Taking the correct stand (against prison abuse, of course) were U.S. Reps. Spencer Bachus, R-Vestavia Hills; Bud Cramer, D-Huntsville; and Artur Davis, D-Birmingham.
Another notable newsbite from the Register's weekly "Political Skinny" column, which you really should start reading if you don't, reveals that Gov. Bob Riley's annual Christmastime press release this year is much more "overtly religious" than last year's version, but similar in religious content to a Christmastime editorial he wrote in 2003.
Finally, this recent question comes from The Hotline via the Register: "Seriously ... how many indictments does it take for [Don] Siegelman to stop running for AL GOV?"
