This stuff is just everyday normal there.

Which is precisely why it's important.

The guy's an idiot, but running for office, not there yet. Barbara Boxer, Nancy Pelosi, and Maxine Waters have said far scarier things, and they are in a position of power to enforce those beliefs on others!

Thomas Frank said it best when he said that in practice, libertarians don't want to limit the power of government. They just want to capture government and put it to work for business.

I'd say it's important for most rational folks to avoid Oklahoma.

You live in Texas, so that is an understandable sentiment.

He is a viable candidate in Oklahoma ...... which is scary to think about. Oklahoma Tea Party candidate Scott Esk supports stoning gay people to death.

Like Virginia, he has no Tea Party PAC running ads for him.
He has his own grassroots organization.

It is the media placing him in with the Tea Party, to somehow demonize the Tea Party.

Nature isn't killing them...it's advocating the murder of another person by human hands in hatred.
