black,white,purple,or green, i have been accused of a lot of things during my lifetime. but never have i been accused of spanking another man. after seeing the judge on tv, it seems to be a good bet that he is as queer as a three dollar bill. get real people. who cares what color he is.

Thanks, That answered my question.
He must be one of “those” that has a decent success rate in the judicial system. If he does I guess it does pay to be crazed or maybe he’s just one of those Intelligent Idiots/Brilliant Buffoons who knows how to beat the system.
To have him represent you should say it all.

Cowboy Bob’s claim to fame was getting the guy, that put his wife in the trunk of a car and left her in a parking lot downtown, off on a technicality.

Cowboy Bob Clark is a former Mobile Police Officer I believe. He has built a reputation in Mobile of being outrageous, flamboyant,and ridiculously silly while staging news conferences about his clients. He makes comments that border on stupidity. How he passed the Alabama Bar Exam is a mystery.  His best defense is attack the Prosecutors and their motives for charging his clients. He seldom addresses the evidence of innocence or guilt. He likes to divert attention to the race and social standings of his clients. IMO a perp has a better chance of defending themselves. He isn’t taken very seriously by his colleagues in the Mobile legal community. That’s why I call him Sideshow Bob.

Maybe because of the nature of this case does the Cowboy character come from the movie Brokeback Mountain? Someone clue me in…

I’ve just started following this story and want to know who this Cowboy person is that I keep hearing about.  Is he the guy who posts late at night on this forum or a fictional character in midst of this silly scandal.

Just wondering.

Some people look so hard for racism almost every where!Yet they ignore the elephant sitting in their own living room because it’s not white.Treat others as you would like to be treated and expect to be punished when you do an unjust act and some times even when the act is justified.GOOD MORNING ALL and this old swamp dweller is back into the swamp.Mercy! It’s chilly out here today.

This sort of thing really does hinder any progress in race relations.  It is similar to the old crying wolf fable.

Anyone else think that Cowboy Bob called on the NAACP guy and asked him to put this thing together?  Bad play of the cards, imo.

I love the comment the lady makes in this video “If WE look beyond what they say he done and judge him on what he doing for this system”  OK so we are supposed to look past the manipulation of inmates, the gay sex thing, the paddling of grown men.  Yes we need to look past this and let him continue to be a “role model” for our youth.  But never did I hear her say he was innocent.  To claim racism every time a black person is charged with a crime is getting old, the black community needs to realize they are setting themselves backwards every time they make these claims with no merit or facts to back it up. Assumptions and accusations are all they have to plead their case with.
