I don't know why, exactly, but this tickles me. Maybe it's the idea of a somewhat sensible-sounding party platform being advertised under the banner of an extinct party with "God" in its name in the year 2013. :lol:

I love that guy!
QuoteWilson beat Austin by a razor-thin margin of 27 votes. He remains untroubled by his methods, saying that all politicians lie.
"Every time a politician talks, he's out there deceiving voters," he told KHOU.
Wow :lol:

OK, I get why his tactics are amusing, but he's an ANTI-LGBTBLTWTFBBQ CRUSADER. Who used those tactics to oust the lesbian incumbent.
So, he's pretty much a douchecanoe.

It'll be interesting to see how it works out for him long-term, actually. I mean, his constituents now know they were basically tricked into voting for him. I can't imagine they'll vote for him again.
