Well hell, Georgia.

Steven Fincher is 29 years old and lives in Winder, Georgia, with his mother, his sister, and four minor children.  And whole freekin’ mess of guns.

So Friday afternoon at about 1:30 pm, Steve decides that shooting up the neighborhood would be a helluva lot of fun.

So he starts randomly shooting from his house.  Police say that Steve “was involved in an argument while drinking with a family friend.”

No one was hurt.  But that was purely by accident.

The NRA was nowhere to be seen.

Thanks to Carl for the heads up.

And they call him the smart one.

Jeb Bush says we need a foreign policy with fewer big words.

Bush continued, “Big syllable words and lots of fancy conferences and meetings and – We’re not leading. That creates chaos. It creates a more dangerous world.

You know, we need more little words like “Bring it on!” or if you’e in a big word whirlwind, make sure they are “Mission Accomplished!”

Here’s some more smart —

“This guy — this president and Secretary Clinton and Secretary Kerry – when someone disagrees with their nuanced approach where it’s all kind of so sophisticated it makes no sense. You know what I’m saying?”

Yeah, right, nuanced makes no sense.  This world is black and white and all those other colors make no sense.

The smart one.

Okay, here was the plan:

1.  Get somebody to write a book for you.

2.  Buy up copies of the book very strategically with your campaign account or with SuperPac money an store them in somebody’s garage.  The goal is to buy enough copies that you …

3.  Get on the New York Times bestseller list.

It worked for Sarah Palin.  Once.  Then the New York Times caught on.

The New York Times informed HarperCollins this week that it will not include Ted Cruz’s new biography on its forthcoming bestsellers list, despite the fact that the book has sold more copies in its first week than all but two of the Times’ bestselling titles, the On Media blog has learned.

Cruz’s “A Time For Truth,” published on June 30, sold 11,854 copies in its first week, according to Nielsen Bookscan’s hardcover sale numbers. That’s more than 18 of the 20 titles that will appear on the bestseller list for the week ending July 4.

Cruz whined and asked why, oh why, can’t I be a famous author.  They answered, and just so you know this is not a liberal conspiracy …

“In the case of this book, the overwhelming preponderance of evidence was that sales were limited to strategic bulk purchases,” she wrote.

The title of Cruz’s book is A Time For Truth.  Obviously that time is not right now.

Thanks to Patty and Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.

Gregg County, Texas, is so East Texas that if they slip, they will fall in Louisiana, so they are not big on this whole gay marriage thing.

Their County Clerk, Connie Wade, refused the gay couples who came to get married and explained that she was “waiting for direction from the Attorney General.”

Yep.  That’s the reason.

Yep – there’s a Jesus wall in her county office.

Connie says the crosses are other’s, but being to one of her employees.  She got threatened with a lawsuit and took them down.

Thanks to Alan for the heads up.

The closest he ever got to combat was using a pencil sharpener

And, no, he does not appear to have a plan to pay for his war.
