Does anyone actually take Jim Hightower seriously? I listen to Pacifica Radio out of Houston (KPFT) — a wacko leftist station flagshipped by Amy Goodman’s seditious mouthpiece for authoritarian Communism, the Orwellian titled “DemocracyNow!”.

Pacifica plays Hightower’s infantile “commentaries” between the leftwing “FreeSpeech Radio News”, and Comrade Goodman’s
show. He talks like Dr. Phil, spouting folksy-sounding phrases with a southern accent (such as the oh-so-clever title of his newest book “Swim against the Current: Even a Dead Fish Can Go With the Flow”) ... in the hopes that his nonsensical rants will come of as “common sense” when coupled with the a southern drawl, a cowboy hat and the occasional Dr.Phil-esque catchprase.

He’s sort of a male version of Molly Ivins, without the likeability. He’s a first-rate lunatic, and a self-aggrandizing know-it-all couched in folksy Texan rhetoric.

Who care’s what this clown says?

Texas sure is a conservative state, but our moonbats can compete with anyone from San Francisco.

He’s a flaming goofball. Now you can save some time and move onto another topic.

CE is a voluntary system that gives candidates for state and local offices a clear choice: (1) go ahead and run the old way if you want, ceaselessly hustling campaign money from private funders and hocking your independence to them; or (2) choose to forego money from private interests...in return for receiving no-string-attached public funds to finance your campaign,” they write

Yeah that will break America in 1 election when everyone decides to run for office. This country is becoming ever increasingly populated with idiots.
