Farmer Roasts Senator in Alabama

Leroy Smith challenged [Republican state Sen. Scott Beason] to pick a bucket full of tomatoes and experience the labor-intensive work.

Beason declined but promised to see what could be done to help farmers while still trying to keep illegal immigrants out of Alabama.

Smith threw down the bucket he offered Beason and said, “There, I figured it would be like that.”

OH, SNAP. RUN AND TELL YOUR ADORABLE LITTLE WHITE BABY, SCOTT BEASON, YOU GOT BURNED. In other news about Alabama’s new (and thoroughly illegal) immigration laws, the first immigrant sent off for “indefinite detainment”… actually had legal U.S. status. Oopsies! Also here are the five brave women (FIVE!) who showed up outside the courthouse in Birmingham to demonstrate yesterday. (And here are the 80 who showed up to protest outside of Beason’s church on Sunday.) THERE, I FIGURED IT WOULD BE LIKE THAT.
