The funny thing is that if he were taking about raising taxes to repel UFOs, he still probably would win reelection, too.
Houston is actually a pretty cool city, it has a very cosmopolitan feel due to the large amount of immigrants. There is Montrose too which has a totally different feel than you’d expect for Texas.
Back in 1980, there was a guy in Arizona (I think) named Briggs (I think) who was either a state representative or a Congressman (I think) who said that if Jimmy Carter were re-elected, it would be necessary for the U.S. Army to depose him.
I’ve Googled like a madman and never found any cites for this, but I’m darned sure I remember it… Does anybody else remember this, or have I been translated into a parallel universe?
Seeing as how the UN armed forces camouflage pattern looks like [.jpg"]this](http://www.huntingdeerblinds.com/images/free_deer_hunting_tips_big_buck1[1), I expect it might not take even take that long.
Crazy is on both sides of the aisle – I give you the then sitting congresswoman truther Cynthia McKinney
At the risk of invoking Godwin, how do you get 38% of a political party to believe that a socialist is a fascist? Which one for chrissake?
First part of the federal Oath of Office:

The word “nazi” is German shorthand for National Socialism. Checkmate, Obamailures !
(No, really. It’s *that *easy for them. They literally do not look past the name. Then again, they evidently don’t know what the fuck “socialism” is, seemingly defining it as “anything I don’t agree with”, so in *that *sense of the word fascists might as well be socialism.)
Dust bowl, Bible belt

I’m pretty sure he’s kidding.
I’m pretty sure you’re talking about John Briggs, from Orange County, California.
Defeated in the 2002 Democratic Primary. Defeated in the 2006 Democratic Primary. Left the Democratic Party in Sept 2007.
I think the Democrats have effectively rid themselves of this particular crackpot. That’s the difference; Republicans embrace their crackpots. Democrats get rid of theirs.
Well, that’s all excusable, but does he eat sugar?
