Well, Buddy Brooks did accuse him of being a member of Al Quaida...
Seriously, the FBI questioned him and not Bedford?

"Jeff Emerson, communications director for Riley, said the governor was not aware the meeting was taking place".

Mmhmmm and pigs fly too.
They are questioning those who change their vote since March. Why would you vote no last month and vote yes this month. Last month’s bill was bad and this one is also.
If they really want to raise money, tax the profits at 50% and charge 2.5 million a year for a license. That is what other states do. 2.5 million times 10 equals 50 million for the state of Alabama. This bill has nothing to do with raising money but has everything to do with kickbacks to the gambling Pac’s and Uncle Milton McGregor.

I just wonder how the FBI got involved in the first place.

Obama Math!!!!!
denton voted yes to let the people vote. these so called Christians don't want gambling in alabama because they might run into somebody they know. its easy for them to got to tunica where they can gamble where no one knows them. all they are are a bunch of hypocrites. 48 news slammed denton but didnt mention zeb little and the other senator from gadsden. if anyone should be investigated by the FBI it should be that crook Roger Bedford (founder of the russellville college/ high school) and especially Bob Riley. didnt one of his family members get caught buying lotto tickets across the state line a few years ago? he has to be getting money from the casinos on the gulf. and he said he didnt know the FBI meetings took place. your the govenor of alabama and you didnt know? cut the crap riley.
Well, I'm all for investigation Bedford and his pork farms.

Okay, I'll say it. Ron Sparks.
Nobody ever complains about the legal gambling at dog tracks.If gambling is good enough for the dog tracks then all Alabama should at least have a chance to vote on the issue.There has been legal gambling and most likely silent payoffs to keep the whole state from having a chance to make some of that Money.Riley is on the way out the Door.

First off, I would appreciate you not grouping me and many other fellow believers into this group of gambling hypocrites you have created.
And as far as your accusations here, your post is full of nothing but assumptions. It's pretty much just slander.
And before you decide I have chosen a side, I haven't. I am actually leaning towards Denton on this.

2.5 million multiplied by 10 actually equals 25 million.

first off, i dont remember calling your name out. i dont even see any previous posts from you on this thread. and as far as my "accusations" go, they are right. like i said before denton voted yes to let the people vote. read the article in todays paper that was about his press confrence yesterday. so what have i said thats slander? if you want gambling in the state thats fine. vote for it. if you dont then vote no. its that simple. i tell you what, if you think you can handle the issue, why dont you run for senate?
I'm surprised so many are ready to throw Denton to the wolves. I still think its Sparks and not Riley who brought in the FBI.
A lot of people in this state are just like my wife's grandmother. She was all against gambling in the state and voted no for it. But she went to Tunica every other week to gamble. Anyway, I listened on the radio and the FBI already has enough evidence and told those that were interviewed that they weren't on a fishing trip. They just wanted to see who would admit what they did.
Mr.Denton held a news conference and told that he had nothing to hide, told everything that took place between the meetings he and the FBI had, not once did he refuse to cooperate, he did not ask for a lawyer to be present, it was just him answering all the questions with nothing to hide. I wish most of you on here would understand that he did not vote for Gambling..he voted to let the people vote..YES or NO...why should his name and interigty be drug thru the mud for that ?? If they had anything on him he would have already been arrested.
