Okay, South Carolina. Give The Trophy Back To Arizona.
Arizona is a doozy. South Carolina occasionally tries to be the nuttiest state, but, Darlin’, Arizona has honed crazzzy down to an art form.
The man in charge of running Arizona’s elections has gone to the birthers. Secretary of State Ken Bennett now says he’s not convinced Barack Obama was really born in the United States and so he is threatening to keep the president off the ballot in November.
Oh yeah, that right there is the United States of Damn America. One crazy old fart sheriff in a small town in Arizona, who couldn’t find his own butt with both hands and a search warrant, gets himself a case of contagious batcrap crazy (Latin name: Guanotitus), spreads it all over the state, and the Center for Disease Control can’t get enough vaccine or reading material over the mountains to save folks so the result is that Barack Obama can’t be on the ballot in that state. Welcome to Arizona. Please pass the popcorn.
And why is Ken Bennett, Arizona’s Secretary of State, doing this? Because he got emails.
Bennett, the state’s No. 2 elected official just below Gov. Jan Brewer (R), said his investigation isn’t personal. He said the reason he started looking into it is because he got more than 1,200 emails asking him to do so after Arpaio’s investigation came out.
Dude, last week I got 1,563 emails asking me to try Viagra but that doesn’t mean I’m going to go buy me a gender re-assignment. I also won the Nigerian lottery at least that many times in my emails, but you do not see me packing for Africa, do you?
New slogan for the state? Arizona: That’s Entertainment!
Thanks to Deb for the heads-up.
