OMG - have you seen TX GOP candidate for Governor website?
I thought it was a parody at first:

This guy is a mega wingnut

I don't know how to show tables in here - but he's got these 'issues' down the side with blocks for each of the challengers and himself with support and oppose in them

8. Why do people forget that DumYa had the Taliban come to TX
Edited on Mon Mar-06-06 05:41 PM by xultar
to marvel @ how he ran TX.

Why should any asshat be surprised that the Taliban that DimSon knows and loves is now the model for how TX and now the rest of the US is being constructed.

It is very rarely mentioned in the media that the Taliban came to TX to visit W.

Gore knew that OBL was in Afghanistan being sheltered by the Taliban but didn't mention it a PEEP.

2. Oh yeah, that guy's terrific.
I'm shocked he's never won a political race before, even when he was a Constitution Party candidate.

4. Love it.
It would be a great strategy if the left wing secretly funded and encouraged far-right candidates like this. To peel away 5% of the vote that the mainstream Republican candidate would have otherwise got.

6. Good ol' Larry...

Larry was born into a Christian family in Amarillo, TX in 1964. Larry's parents read the Bible and prayed with him at breakfast and at bedtime daily. Larry's grandmother taught him the importance of memorizing Scripture.

Larry says, "The most important decision in all my life occurred when I was five. I asked Jesus to save me from hell. My family and Sunday school teachers had told me the fate of those who reject Christ. Heaven sounded pretty cool too. I did not realize the tremendous impact following Christ would have on my life here on Earth."

30. Just took that "test"...
And people BELIEVE this shit?

If you've stolen a cookie, you go to hell.

If you stub your toe and say "goddamnit", you go to hell.

If you think a woman's hot, you go to hell.

If you don't go to church every Sunday, you go to hell.

If you don't read the Bible for 5 hours a night, you go to hell.

Well, following that logic, send me to hell; heaven don't sound like too much fun. :evilgrin:

Leviticus 11 9-12 says:
9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.

Deuteronomy 14 9-10 says:
9 These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat:
10 And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is unclean unto you.

33. Gotta Be A Fringe Candidate, Surely?
One position that he has:

What do you think about the undeclared war in Iraq?

The US has a history of invading sovereign nations and Texas is one of them. Texas National Guard troops should immediately be released from US conscription by the Governor.

------------------------------------------------------

is at least something that I can agree with

but he has the view that the "Republic of Texas" was illegally invaded and should be separated from the US.

I say, hurry up and let Texas go!

Look at what an asshole came out of the Texas repuke party? Look at what Texasd allowed to happen with Kennedy?

This place is a festering ground numnuts like that one. I thank God there are so many great liberal Texans out there fighting these idiots in their local communities. Just wished I could be there to join that fight.

44. In Texas, we don't "register" our party.
If we vote in a primary, our voter's registration card gets stamped with a "D" or an "R"--so we have to vote for the same party in a runoff.

I've considered voting for the most insane Republican--sometimes it's hard to pick. But--what if I were hit by a truck? As they looked for my ID, I would be identified as a Republican. Oh, the shame of it...
