Y’all, I am pondering running as a delegate to the Democratic National Convention from Texas. I figured I could keep all 8 or 9 of y’all informed about it and my paying job would like me to blog about it on their website.  Plus, I’ve never been to a national convention.

But there’s a heavy downside.  I would want to drive to the convention so I could bring back all manner of crazy swag from the convention for my friends and to auction off to raise money for Democrats.

Then I saw this poll.

Mississippi

Alabama

Y’all, I’d have to drive through both of those states to get to Charlotte, NC.

Okay, so what if we stop to eat at a cafe and one of these people comes in and is wearing one of those “Obama is a Muslim Terrorist” tee-shirts and my Bubba would have to do something that would land his rear end in the Grand Jury room?

I dunno.  Unless there’s an underground railroad for folks with an Obama 12 sticker on their back car window, I might never make it to Charlotte.

Thanks to David for the heads-up.

DEPT. OF JUSTICE REFUSES PRECLEARANCE ON TEXAS VOTER ID LAW

More to come.  More.

Okay, so this morning, I found this article on Fox News.  No, no, wait.  No, no, this is good.

EXCLUSIVE: Gingrich-Perry Pre-Convention Ticket in the Works

.

So, Ole Bubba walks over, glances at the headline and hears me panting and doing the whole Meg Ryan thing from When Harry Met Sally and says, “Goodness gracious, my woman just found Democratic foreplay.”

I know that’s right.

Oh yeah, there’s more.

Sources close to the Gingrich campaign say preliminary “what-if” conversations are underway that could lead to a Gingrich-Perry ticket being announced prior to the  Republican National Convention at the end of August.

Gingrich insiders hope forming a predetermined ticket with Perry will unite the evangelical, Tea Party and very conservative voters that make up the core of the GOP.

Oh, Baby, Baby.

Now just sit back for a minute and think about the glorious wonders of a Gingrich / Perry Ticket.  Right there you’ve got two men who think more of themselves than the whole rest of the world combined.  We shall call it The Prancing Ticket. And just for the sheer joy of wallowing in it, we shall promise it love.

Y’all, excuse me, I need to go smoke a cigarette.

I cannot believe the time I have wasted thinking about global warming and nuclear war, when I could have just asked God.  That’s what Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma did.  Let me quote him.

Well actually the Genesis 8:22 that I use in there is that “as long as the earth remains there will be springtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, day and night.” My point is, God’s still up there. The arrogance of people to think that we, human beings, would be able to change what He is doing in the climate is to me outrageous.

Now, that thought must make it easier for him to sleep at night since he takes $1,352,523 in campaign contributions from the oil and gas industry, including $90,950 from Koch Industries.

Inhofe is also a birther, thinks the United Nations has a secret plot to control population, and believes himself to be the reincarnation of Marie Antoinette.  Okay, I made up the Marie Antoinette thing but the other two made it believable.

That’s the problems with these guys – telling where the crazy ends.

Thanks to Stephen for the heads-up.

Watch as Georgia State Representative compares women to cows, chickens, and pigs.  And blames it on God.

I do not enjoy shaming other women, but why the hell didn’t one of them sitting behind him get up and go punch the Reset button on the back of his neck?  It can generally be done with a whack to the back of his head.

Representative England, I am so coming after you with a backhoe.  I think we know who needs to be compared to a pig, now don’t we?

Thanks to Ralph for the heads up.
