House Dem leader Bobby Moak and the Free State of Jones

By: Magnolia Tribune - June 30, 2015

Moak weighs in on … Free State of Jones?

Several folks have sent me a copy of an unusual fundraising email from state House Democratic Leader Bobby Moak, D-Bogue Chitto.

Moak, as I pointed out in a post Friday, still hasn’t weighed in on the state flag or gay marriage issues — which is sort of strange. But in his fundraising letter, he focuses on the Free State of Jones — Jones County’s secession from the secession during the Civil War — and the upcoming movie about it starring Matthew McConaughey.

Not really sure what he’s trying to say here. Look away, look away? Don’t sweat the flag issue (especially in an election year)? He just wanted to write a movie review?
