God knows who the Publisher is "Cushy With":<br /><br />Letter to the editor: Supreme Court, Riley are 'obscene'<br />By Opelika-Auburn News reader<br />Published: September 24, 2010 <br /><br />Three point six billion dollars is a lot of money, which could have benefited this state three years ago.<br /><br />That was the figure handed down in Montgomery County District Court, in Judge Tracey McCooey’s courtroom against oil giant Exxon Mobil, in 2001.<br /><br />However, when the case went before the Alabama Supreme Court in 2007, eight Republican justices threw out all punitive damages, which reduced the amount to compensatory damages of only $51.9 million.<br /><br />The lone dissenting opinion was by Chief Justice Sue Bell Cobb, who described Exxon Mobil as “deceitful.”<br /><br />Evidence shows all eight of these GOP supremes received funneled monies, from Exxon<br /><br />Mobil, through the following sources with the total amount being $5.5 million:<br /><br />* The Alabama Civil Justice Reform Committee PAC<br /><br />* The Lawsuit Reform PAC<br /><br />* The Business Council’s Progress PAC<br /><br />* Fine Geddie & Associates<br /><br /> This is obscene. It is so blatant, and egregious, it doesn’t merit an argument.<br />When Bob Riley was asked to appeal to the court for reconsideration, he chose not to participate because he received contributions from Fine and Geddie totalling around $625,000. It this doesn’t constitute “Monetary Quid Pro Quo,” I don’t know what qualifies. I know the definition of Bribery defined by United States Code and The Code of Alabama “rhyme and verse.”<br /><br />Now we have a general election and two of these GOP Supreme Court justices, Mike Bolin and Tom Parker, ask for your vote.<br /><br />Not only should they be voted out, they should be indicted. No wonder the Justice Department has ranked Alabama the fourth-most corrupt state for the last seven years, which covers 87 percent of Riley’s eight-year term.<br /><br />Riley is obscene and, with the exception of Sue Bell Cobb, the Alabama Supreme Court is, too.<br /><br />Phil Fleming<br />Prattville<br /><br />Enclosure: URL Link:<br /><br />http://www2.oanow.com/news/2010/sep/24/letter-editor-supreme-court-riley-are-obscene-ar-874202/Hootboyslimmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833082687069559403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3669412675139526125.post-35273556416129649092010-02-20T15:43:58.513-06:002010-02-20T15:43:58.513-06:00There will be more to come.
