As most of you know, Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick is holy-crap-he’s-eating-live-frogs crazy.  The man has a couple of notches missing from his cogwheel.  And, Honey, when the chain hits those blank spaces, epic whacko occurs.

Epic.

Allen West epic.

Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick on Friday announced the appointment of conservative firebrand Allen West, a former Florida congressman and prominent Fox News contributor, to the state’s Sunset Advisory Commission.

It appears that the violent and discredited West moved to Texas.

“There is no mission more important than working towards a more efficient and effective state government,” West said in a statement. “As a graduate of the University of Tennessee and a former member of Congress, it is a blessing to follow in the footsteps of Davy Crockett who came to Texas to fight for liberty and freedom.”

Allen West, I knew Davy Crockett.  Davy Crockett was a friend of mine.  Sir, you are no Davy Crockett.

Moses Rose maybe, but no on the Davy Crockett thing.

The Sunset Commission reviews state agencies for efficiency. You can bet that Allen West will find every social agency helping children or old people should be destroyed.  Patrick had to import meanness.  Texas didn’t have anybody that mean and, hell, we have people meaner than ten acres of snakes.

It’s going to be a Mean-O’-Thon in Austin.
