At least it's not the Southern Cross...

State Rep. Steve Hurst, D-Munford, has prefiled a bill in the Alabama House that would require most Alabama car tags to include the phrase "God Bless America." Some specialty license plates and motorcycle tags would be exempt.

Hurst said he got the idea when the saw the words "God Bless America" on a specialty prisoner of war car tag.

"I thought why don't we do the same thing for all the tags in the state of Alabama. That will let all the people in America know that we are a Bible Belt state," Hurst said.

Oh thank heavens! Were it not for the GBA line on license plates, I would have been completely and utterly in the dark with regard to Alabama's piousness and cultural conservatism.
