Speaking "Frank"ly to Rick Burgess, the face of the Bama SBC about Nick Saban and patriotism
Rick Burgess is a graduate of Jax St U in NE Bama, historically a teacher's college. I have been active on their facebook wall recently and called the President's office with concerns about Burgess platform as one of their notable alums.
Burgess pretty much these days in the face of the Southern Baptist Convention of Alabama. He will be the keynote speaker to the Convocation of State Baptists Nov 14 at Whitesburg Baptist Church in Huntville, not far from Where Donald Trump made his sonsabitches aside about a month ago in the presence of the UBama LEGEND and Senior Senator, Richard Shelby, and the Episcopalian Luther Strange.
Steve Bannon is on the Ground in Bama for Roy Moore and unlike Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Martin Luther King Jr. Burgess doesn't seem to have a clue what's at stake for the soul of the state.
On Monday after trump was in the state, Burgess interviewed the impostor on air. Knowing his good friend Cliff Simms of Yellowhammer News is now in the White House and likely set up the interview, Burgess genuflected, or as they say in Bama, pretty much kissed his Ass; quite contrary to his treatment the Spring of 2016 when The head of the SBC Ethics and Religious Liberty group, Russ Moore was on air for a live 15 minute interview.
Point being Burgess is pretty much a card carrying fundamentalist of a Calvinist bent who don't know his ass from a hole in the ground--to quote Randy Newman on Lester Maddox--when it comes to authentice Baptist ideals of church state separation like Bama Baptist Frank Johnson and Hugo Black. In fact Burgess is a disciple of David Barton and the Christian Reconstructionist movement though Rick probably doesn't know it. He adores Franklin Graham and Jerry Falwell Jr; that's how far the Bama SBC has sunk since the fundamentalist takeover of the 80s and early 90s.
In regard the justice work of Martin Luther King, the distinction between flag worship and patriotism, here is something Burgess most likely has never considered

This morning a miscreant from Attalla called in to bring Nick Saban's comments on the flag and the NFL, a statement posted the Monday after Trump's flareup and Nick's Heisman winner Derrick Henry was in solidarity with Marcus Mariota, Russell Wilson, Pete Carroll, the Titans and the Seahawks. I was at that Game.
Burgess and Bill Bubba Bussey finally found Saban's Saturday Down South after a month and read it on the air. Nevertheless Rick and Bubba stood by their false equivocations regarding the NAACP here on the Day the new movie about Justice Thurman goes nationwide with the star who played Jackie Robinson.
Tad Tadlock was campus minister at JSU from 68-81. He left to go to Clemson where he became good friends of Gadsden Alabama native Danny Ford who took Clemson to the National Title that year.
Tadlock is eager to be on a panel at JSU with Rick Burgess this fall before the Bama Senate playoff between Roy Moore and Doug Jones. Hopefully if it takes traction, JSU Alum Glenn Browder, a former sensible US Congressman from East Alabama will be on the dais with them and some female yet to be determined.
As Hamilton said: "Wait on it!"
