And, of course, the guvna takes credit...

I'm shocked that Gov Dr Dr Bentley or anyone in the Alabama Department of Commerce is able to find Birmingham on a map.

Das ist Wunderbar!

All he needs is a paddleball.

Ears Riley stood behind that same podium when Surmodics bought Brookwook Pharma.

(which was then sold to Evonik after hemorrhaging one helluva lot of money)

Chances are good that you can call him our next governor as well.(2015 to 2019)

Oh, he'll win re-election. Back-n-forth Parker Griffith will not beat him. As bad as Ears Riley was, Bentley is 100x worse.

The best way to get Bentley out of office is to run someone against him that is better.

Neither of the Republican options are better than Bentley & the Democratic option certainly isn't better.

My choice for governor was defeated last time due in part to Bentley receiving funds from the AEA & no one seeming to care.

There is a political forum right?

Why is he referred to as Dr Dr? I understand that he is an MD.

Something about how he changed his name to Dr. Robert Bentley to have that on the ballot when he ran the first time.

Correct. He officially changed his name to "Doctor" Robert Bentley before the election. Being that he is a Dr. already, he then became Dr. Dr. Bentley.

Dr. Dr. Bentley is about as bad as "The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim," or "The The Angels Angels of Anaheim."

Driving through Montgomery yesterday across a strip of highway that included a deserted strip mall, a dead mall surrounded by vacant lots, one pay day loan center and scores of people walking along the side of the road, some appeared bare foot. What was sitting in the sky? Bentley's smiling face on a billboard reading "Dr. Robert Bentley engineering Alabama's economic recovery."
