Oh, Texas!
By Here’s to hoping that someone asks George Bush “Mr. President, do you agree with the platform of your party in your home state?” Make sure to check out Kevin Drum’s discussion. Here are the high points, from the only state to secede from two different countries in defense of slavery:
-Abolishment of the Federal Reserve and return to the Gold Standard
-Restricting the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court from any case involving abortion, religion, or issues relating to the Bill of Rights
-Gay sex should be a criminal offense
-Homosexuals will have as much right to see children as convicted child molesters.
-Federal income tax should be abolished
-Take back the Panama Canal
I wish I were making this shit up.
