“Well, I was overjoyed Wednesday when I first heard the ... news on the radio that the Democrats were trying to save the children. But, then I listened a little bit longer and sadly, they were not talking about the 3,700 children a day that are killed by abortions. Oh well, maybe tomorrow they’ll wake up.”

“I’m calling about the front page story about the teacher in Rogersville, Grisham. This is America. Everybody has rights. Talk about the person’s rights, but everybody has rights to come on television three-fourths naked and say all these vulgar words and all that stuff. And everybody has rights, but some people don’t have any? Do people not have rights to say what they like and don’t like? Or what they believe in or don’t believe in? What goes against their God-loving religion and what doesn’t? They don’t have that right as an American? I think Grisham has the right to say what he thinks and what he feels and what he believes in and what he don’t believe in.”

“To the teacher/coach that was making the terrible remarks about our first lady and fellow human beings, I mean, this is just unfortunately Alabama at its worst. I travel all over the country. That’s why they see us like they do. We’re just so backward here. ... We’re not progressive. We see each other through a prism. But, keep working, younger generation. Show the older generation how to get out of this backward mind-set.”

“Reference Thursday’s paper: Mo Brooks is doing a terrible job. He should go back to something he possibly can handle, which would be waiting tables.”
