Being Liberal and a Progressive in a RED STATE is not an easy thing these days. I started this blog to vent my frustrations on our lives being taken over by right wing conservatives with their propaganda machines. I have also learned an important lesson in the last year, it is that reading is the only way to get real information, you cannot depend on the news you see on TV.

Pregnant Senior Banned From Graduation (GUESS WHICH STATE) ~~ of course ALABAMA

Leave it to Alabama:

MONTGOMERY, Ala. - A pregnant student who was banned from graduation at her Roman Catholic high school announced her own name and walked across the stage anyway at the close of the program.

Alysha Cosby's decision prompted cheers and applause Tuesday from many of her fellow seniors at St. Jude Educational Institute.

But her mother and aunt were escorted out of the church by police after Cosby headed back to her seat.

"I can't believe something like this is happening in 2005," said her mother, Sheila Cosby.

The real kicker is that the father of the child was also a senior and they allowed him to participate.

What's with Alabama? Even the Catholic Church is fucked up in that state. Three pregnant teens graduated from the Catholic school my kids attended up North, all recieved their their diplomas amongst cheers. I tell you, the men down there are afraid of women. Jeez.
