Today is a special day not just because somehow the grade-A pole puffer that runs this site convinced Bubba to show up on a non-Saturday, but also because it’s Valentine’s Day. Now we all know that Valentine’s Day is a great day for some—-such as gay people not only being able to get married in…

Happy Valentine’s Day to Gay People in Washington Who Can Now Get Married
Once again, Alabama Liberal sets itself apart from most media as today I bring you no news of Whitney Houston and instead bring you actual news of events that will effect people. Yesterday, Washington became only the 7th state in the country to allow people of the same-sex to marry each other, and I’m sure…
Entertainment Editorial: Alabama Liberal’s Book of the Month is…
Ready Player One by Ernest Cline! I won’t pretend this is the best written novel of last year and that the book couldn’t stand to be 50 pages shorter (although its 368 page length isn’t bad at all), but it’s definitely more fun than many books I’ll choose will be and the perfect book for…
TV Reviews: Quick Takes on The River, Touch, The Firm, Alcatraz, and Smash
Last week I expressed disappointment with the Fall’s new shows as—-in my opinion—-really none of the best and brightest have fully lived up their potential. Well this week I have no such complaints about the midseason crop as there’s not an outright stinker in the bunch of the ones I will talk about today. Consider…
Monday Morning Movie Reviewer: “Rampart,” Don’t Miss This Polarizing Gem
Although the first four reviews were all centered around strong women (although only Haywire showcased a convincing one) then this movie is strictly for the men as I feel there is a real gender divide in those who will enjoy this under-valued film about a dirty cop on the downward spiral. That isn’t to say…
Movie Review: Haywire
Completing our trend of reviewing movies starring tough women (the bouncy bounty hunter in One For the Money, the robotic vampire in Underworld, and the ultimate bitch in The Woman in Black) is Haywire, the feature film debut of former MMA star Gina Carano. In it she plays a double crossed private security contractor out…
Movie Review: The Woman in Black
This haunted house movie starring Daniel Radcliffe is well-made but I just really didn’t go for it. I guess I’m just a little worn out by this type of thing but I will say there are many worse ways you could spend your money this month. What Works: The movie has an eerie, relentlessly creepy…
Movie Review: “Underworld Awakening” A Ten Word Review
Bloody but bloodless wannabe video game. What Works: What Doesn’t: No really, nothing. What I Would Have Done Differently: lol
Movie Review: “One For the Money” Five Word Review
Very Bad What Works: Nothing. What Doesn’t: Everything. What I Would Change: lol
Sunday’s Sermons: Why I’m Not Impressed with Santorum’s “Miracle”
For those that can’t immediately tell what the title of this article refers to, let me recap. First, Rick Santorum’s presidential campaign was all but over as little as two weeks ago. The dude had absolutely no chance of beating Romney, and was even behind Newt Gingrich. At around the time he was becoming a political…
Everything Sunday’s Sermons Has Taught Me
And finally completing the site’s series on “Everything [insert section here] has taught me” comes the final one for the final day of the week: Sunday’s Sermons. I have to admit that writing things in a top five style list has been tantalizingly easy this past week and I’m tempted to keep doing it, but,…
Everything I’ve Learned From (God Help Us) Bubba’s Sex Tips, How to be a Player in a Rural Area
3. Rednecks Have Feelings Too. Oh sure, we all know that longing is for sissies, heartbreak is for women, and crying is for yankees. And yet, all that underestimates how many feelings are beneath the surface of rednecks. Just look at this heartwarming poem (text message) I wrote my beloved: Roses are red, Violets are…
Everything Interviews with the Invisible Has Taught Me
Once again, I’m throwing out some lessons learned through the different sections I run on the site. And today brings what Interviews with the Invisible taught me…[Man, I have to admit this a great way to fill space.] 5. Someone Doesn’t Have to Be Famous to Be Interesting, In Fact It Helps If They Aren’t…
