Perhaps when the Tea Party consolidates their power said "judge" will be nominated for the Supreme Court as the first "non-judge" someday...you know that talk about how someday someone should appoint a non-judge to the Supreme Court...something Bush tried to do I think. If I was President Keith Oberman would be my Supreme Court nominee

Here is the judge's official home page.

He is in charge of elections and emergency management among other things. It looks like he is trying to scare the locals into the voting booth.

The really brilliant part, and the thing that could make this theory completely true, is that Obama is waiting until AFTER the election to become dicator. Now that is thinking outside the evenlope.

Believing secesh is the right way to go is crazy, but not insane

Or is it the other way around

This whole Republican craziness would make more sense if they just did what they mean and started burning American flags. Maybe then Washington would get the message and figure out that brainwashing has stopped working.

I have the proper response to burning flags.

Whatever Mr. Violence.

In large part Republican voters want to lower taxes because they want to "starve the beast" to use their vernacular.

That is fine, but if you want the beast to know that you are angry with it then it would be best to let it know that you mean business. Burn its symbol -- the red, white and blue as codified at 4 USC 1. That's one of the many pages of laws you hate anyways.

Until that happens the beast won't get the message that it is too big. Instead it will think that all is well in Republican land so long as the American flag is flying in Washington DC.

Doesn't it seem more natural that a person that believes in a small federal government would put his state flag in higher priority than the federal government flag?

Secession (Balkanization) kinda dovetails neatly into the "I built this" big lie being screeched by the Romneyites of late. Every time I hear it the only thing that comes to mind is Gepetto and his puppet and now it's THE Republicans war cry on the campaign trail? Dumb and dumber need to find a new tune before they completely marginalize their party.
I remember thinking to myself when Rayguns was running that there was no way he would be elected. Having seen how well he & Ed Meese governed in California it was an easy call but lo & behold we saw Saint Ronnie installed in the White House. Now we have Herman & Eddie Munster trying to do the same.

I can't wait for these turkeys opinions on foreign policy. If the best thing they've got is a venture (vulture) capitalist to run for President I hope the voters don't fall for this humongous dog & pony shoe that is the latest great white hope ploy.
