Alabama Dems owe Black Alabama Dems an Apology

 Former Rep. Artur Davis (R-Ala.) addressed the 2013 Conservative Political Action Conference on Saturday, touting the accomplishments of the Republican party."Never lose sight of the essential difference between the left and right in this country," Davis said.

The chair of the Madison County Democratic Party wants to know can a 12 step program can fix what ails Alabama,   I want to know can a 12 step program fix what ails the Alabama Democratic Party?

Step 1. Every Democrat who supported former Rep. Artur Davis over former former Rep. Earl Hillard (D Birmingham) needs apologize to voters who live in the 7th Congressional District.

Step 2.  Every Democrat who supported former Rep. Artur Davis over Ron Sparks needs to apologize to every African American, Democrat who tried to tell them Artur Davis was really a republican.


It's no secret Artur Davis ripped his drawers with me a long time ago, or, that I was bashed, banned and ostracized because I wouldn't go along to get along.   Will those of us who tried to tell them Artur Davis was not the second coming of President Barack Obama ever get an apology?

Time will tell the truth.

Stay tuned for steps 4-12.

I once met Artur Davis while we were waiting on flights at the Huntsville International Airport. At the time, he was a Democratic Congressman and I was a card-carrying GOP voter.

He came across to me personally as an arrogant jerk.

Now that he is a Republican and I am an active Democrat, I don't think things have changed.

I remember as the Davis campaign rolled on, and we watched what he did and said, it became apparent he was either an opportunist or a republican't, one or the other. When Davis and Bright and others all voted against the Affordable Care Act, they lost all cover. This was the definitive legislation in a generation, and a Democrat who opposed it was not a Democrat. There has to be a core value - and even though we don't have the rigid ideology of the republican's - when you reject taking care of each other, and "the least of these" - well, fool me once... Redeye always said it isn't good enough to say you are a Democrat -- you got to be one!

And therein lies the problem yellowdog, the democratic party has no core values. The present party is all style, no substance.
