Just when you thought that the Texas Lieutenant Governor’s race could not get any wackier, you realize that you have indeed underestimated the wacky in Dan Patrick’s body.

During a debate between candidates in the lieutenant governor race, an audience member asked state Sen. Dan Patrick (R), who will likely win the election, how much money he would spend to “cool the environment.”

Patrick said he would spend “zero dollars” to combat climate change.

“I understand why Obama thinks he can change the weather — because he thinks he’s God,” he said, as recorded by Raw Story. “He thinks he is the smartest person in the country.

So, Obama thinks he’s God.  Well, I guess that beats being a Socialist Kenyan Muslim Narcoterrorist, which is what Patrick thought the President was yesterday.

Thanks to Deb and Frank for the heads up.
