Revisiting Auntie Eu-la - Part II

 



Who's that girl sitting behind the desk of former Alabama governor Lurleen Wallace? Why, it's our own governor Kay Ivey. Yes, something happened along the way that changed Kay, who wouldn't know a foundation garment if it time warped out of Roger's Department Store.

Yet, she's one smart cookie. Here's what one of our more erudite readers said concerning dubbing our governor "MeeMaw":

It’s disrespectful, whether one voted for her or not. We’ve never referred to a male governor as “Pawpaw.” If a younger woman becomes our next governor, shall we call her Mama—-? I’m surprised women haven’t been more vocal on this, but many refer to her by this moniker. Men and women should be treated with equal respect and dignity, though there’s little of that left in politics these days.

We couldn't have said it better than our commenter. We've often disagreed with Gov. Ivey, yet we've never once called her an ugly name. Let's all do better.


She's a Big Time Woman from Way Out West Alabama
