Politics (Politics & Government) - 28 September 2006

http://www.kinkyfriedman.com/issues/faq.html

Kinky Friedman- Texas Gubernatorial candidate. Many of us from around the country are watching this race VERY CLOSELY.

Kinky AN INDEPENDENT would increase National Guard troops on the border from 1,500 to 10,000 and impose 25,000 to $50,000 fines on companies that hire illegal immigrants.

Foreign nationals seeking employment would purchase a foreign taxpayer ID card once they have passed a criminal background check.

Friedman is calling for $100 million to be allocated immediately in Houston to fight crime and increase the number of police officers on the streets.

Kinky would de-criminalize Marijuana.

Feelings on gun control: "The second amendment is every bit as important as the others."

He would close corporate loopholes so that the 10,000 Texas businesses that are not currently paying taxes, will.

Go to his website. I don't agree with him on everything but he has some great ideas.

What do you think?

How do you deal with those liberals who have incorrect opinions?

They like unions. They raise taxes on opressed millionaires and lower them on poor people. They think our water and air should be clean and that trees are good. They believe old people have a right to retirement after working for decades. They think war is the last answer. They believe that homosexuals should be able to choose who they want to marry.

Who has these radical, hateful ideas? Liberals. And they have the most incorrect opinions. There are so many Demon-crats and liberals at my school and I hate having to argue with their inferior platform.

I like to ask how other conservatives deal with these mentally retarded liberals. If one tries to talk to me, I start quoting from Ann Coulter, and I've found that keeps them away.

What do you guys think?

Why are critics of the war mad at Bush? Why aren't they mad at Osama Bin Laden?

Why does everyone blame Bush? Why aren't Muslims mad at Osama Bin Laden for putting their religion in the toilet? Why are all the terrorist acts done by Muslims? When are the Islamic moderates going to FIGHT against their own Islamic fascists? Any pseudo-sophomoric intellectuals want to weigh-in?

How did Ted Kennedy survive Chappaquiddic, politically?

He obviously lied on several counts, and Mary Jo might well have been pregnant. The whole story stinks. So why do the people of Massachusetts keep voting for a probable murderer?

Have the Palestinians developed teleportation?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oS2ESHKhBQY
In an interview with the Israeli ambassador to London, Jon Snow asked why the IDF had bombed the only powerstation in Gaza, the Ambassador said to stop them smugging out a captive soldier(sic). One would assume you would need darkness to smuggle a prisoner out, so the fact the Israelis blew up a powerstaion so that there was minimum light makes no sense UNLESS they think there is a teleportation unit ala Star Trek What do YOU think?
Please watch the video BEFORE responding
