Too bad Kinky supports a few thing I don't and can't.

If it were not for those show stopper issues, like homosexual marriage, I'd vote for him just to shake up the status quo.

I might skip the Republican Primary this year, just so I'm eligible to sign his petition to place him on the ballot.

I like salsa with my politics. Too bad I can't vote for the Kinkster.

Perry a serious poliltician? Why not?

That headline could be re-written this way and it would still be OK. Anyone can run. Kinky, The Haircut...

It's part of America.

I'm thinking of doing the same thing...skip the primary so I can sign Kinky's petition.

He hasn't got a chance of winning, but him in the race will make it lot more entertaining than just listening to Perry and Strayhorn (and whoever the Dems put on the ballot) chew on each other.

I can just imagine the televised debates, LOL. Bring on the cee-gars!

Have you ever voted for a candidate who you agreed with on absolutely everything? Personally, I don't think it much matters that Kinky supports gay marriage. Legislation in Texas would never pass.

I don't agree about with him about gay marriage either but I still contributed to the Kinkster's campaign because he is anti-illegal immigration. To my mind, that is the second most important issue we face (the first being the War on Terror).

Not since Reagan have I found a candidate I support 100%. If I were in Texas, I'd vote for Kinky because I think MOST of hwat he says is better than most of what the others are saying.

I like the idea about the Mexican generals.

Milton Friedman would be a good politician, not Kinky.

The same Kinky that calls Bush a "tyrannical bully?"

And worse of all, he's not funny. He's like Gallagher type of humor.

"You take five Mexican generals and give them a bank account of $1 million each," he said. "Then every time a Mexican national gets caught crossing illegally, you withdraw $5,000 from the general responsible for that sector."

This is Mexico we are talking about. They would get together and agree to let them all flow in through one sector and split up the money. And this still doesn't address them coming in from other areas. Heck they might not even care about that program. How much money a year do you think each illegal sends back to Mexico?

Oh shucks - for a minute I thought that perhaps Milton was going to run.

[Richard Kimball]

I suppose you could declare Friedman a serious politician if you want to declare idiocy a form of intellect. Personally, I thought his shtick was funnier when Pat Paulson did it.
