Okay, in the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse race to win the Republican nomination for Texas Lt. Governor, it’s a tough job to name a crazy of the day.

The reason this race is important is because in Texas the Lt. Governor has all the power.  We’re going to talk more about that later.

Anyway, incumbent David Dewhurst has tied his shoelaces together and tried to promenade.  Get this —

“At the end of the day, we’re paying our school teachers — when you count in cost of living — a very fair salary,” Dewhurst said. “We need to have better results. We need to make sure that we’re not just paying more money and we need to look at more choice for parents.”

Texas consistently ranks near the bottom nationally in average teacher pay according to many groups that track classroom salaries, including teacher unions. One expert testified in the state’s pivotal school finance trial last year that Texas’ average teacher pay was about $47,300 in 2009-10 dollars — lower than the national average of nearly $55,000, and less than what 32 other states pay educators.

You know for a dead solid perfect fact that he wanted to add, “after all, they are mostly women at the end of the day results flag guns God taxes amen.”

David Dewhurst is one of the richest dudes in Texas.  You know what I wanna see?  I wanna see David Dewhurst for just one day teach a class of 30 kids in an inner city school.  Just one day.  And then live on a teacher’s salary for a month.  Just a month.

Now you know why Ted Cruz beat him in the primary when he up and ran for the senate.  You know how arrogance and ignorance sound kinda alike?  That’s because Dewhurst and Dumbass do, too.

They told us that we might get snow on Thursday night.  The last time we had a big snow here – 3 inches on the ground – was 1973.  The entire town closed down.

Anyway, they took it back today and said it *might* get to 31 degrees.  And it *might* even rain.

So, let us know where you are and how you’re doing.  If you send pictures, I’ll post them.

Stay warm.

If you want some free quality entertainment, go read the indictment of the Virginia Governor and his prissy wife.  It’s a damn hoot.

They are poor people wanting the rich lifestyle.  You know, Republicans.

About 5 years ago we had an incident happen in my little county that made national news.  A candidate for congress Photoshopped his head onto the body of his slimmer and better-built opponent and sent it out in a brochure.  He, of course, got caught and still can’t show his face without people saying, “Hey, your face looks familiar!”

Since it made national news, you’d think people wouldn’t do that stuff.

Ahhhhh … but does Steve Stockman qualify as “people”?

Stockman is trying to make his opponent, Senator John Cornyn, look like Barack Obama’s best buddy.  Not being able to find photographic evidence of that, he just clumsily pasted Corny’s head over the head of Charlie Crist.

A reporter at Politico first found it and it’s been nothing but fun since then.

Thanks to Don in Huaco for the heads up.

Robert Jeffress is the pastor at the Dallas First Baptist Church, a congregation of 11,000 members.

He’s a stinker who can deliver hate-filled messages with a sweet Christian smile.  His speaking style is first cousins to Lindsey Graham.

He hates Barack Obama and believes that the President is a Muslim.

Here he is on Fox News explaining the Obama War on Easter.

Well, things have heated up since then and while Pastor Jeffress says that he doesn’t believe that President Obama is the anti-Christ because his poll numbers are too low, President Obama is clearing the path for the anti-Christ.

“My thesis is, people will have been conditioned long before the anti-Christ comes to accept governmental overreach, and that’s what you’re seeing with President Obama.”

He said the end times were predicted in the Old Testament Book of Daniel and the New Testament Book of Revelations.

“Even Jews look forward to it,” Jeffers told O’Reilly.

Hey, not me.  I do not look forward to it.  I’ve read Revelations and it scares the crap outta me.  I do not look forward to watching people get tossed into the pits of hell and burning forever.  Oh holy crap, maybe I’m the anti-Christ.

Thelma says that Jeffress is just clearing a spot for Hillary, so that he can preach that she is the true anti-Christ.  I think Thelma make a good point.

Thanks to Irene for the heads up.
