Gohmer and Ron Paul all in the same state, but you are not alone in that. <br /><br />We have Gov. Johnny Wall Street, John Boner, and Joe the Plumber all in Ohio, I would hang my head in shame, unless I thought of Sen. Sherrod Brown, and Rep.

It's what you grew up with.<br /><br />Here, around the Bible Belt, Republicans aren't just crazy now. They were ALWAYS crazy. The Democrats, long the majority party during my youth, were split into liberal (national) and conservative (Dixiecrat) camps. For a while, politicians like LBJ were somehow able to unite the two factions of the Democrats. That finally broke up during the Vietnam/civil rights era, and right-wing Dems started voting Republican. By the Reagan era, they were jumping ship. Well, it least it's now clear which party is which. But the Democrats are clearly a minority party, and will be until the state's demographics change. In the cities, they already are; but it's taking a while for it to get out into the "church counties."Manifesto Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06521151220297061304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502695489360674806.post-45300953922315168472011-08-17T08:39:42.403-05:002011-08-17T08:39:42.403-05:00I love Texas- the State.

What a surprise to find out that I'm a Flaming Liberal and had been a cult member for my entire life (anything other than Baptist, Baptist, Methodist and Baptist = cult)<br /><br />Now that our homeschooled son is of age to discuss things like evolution, dinosaurs and government-NOT-as-seen-through-bible-stories, it's increasingly difficult to find any friends for him to talk to unless we travel to a college town like Denton (almost 2 hours away).lunamotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14514608202415217448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2502695489360674806.post-35008560695433604062011-08-16T13:30:26.687-05:002011-08-16T13:30:26.687-05:00Great post, Joe.

Unbelievable that so many could take both of those goofballs seriously. They both even share the same crazy dacial expression at times.
