These quotes contradict your claim that: "He's also had interviews where he's been against guns - period. Not just for self defense, not just for huntin, but not at all. "

Seems to me like Kinky makes a personal choice to eschew firearms, but at the same time supports the 2nd Amendment.

I'll see if I can find it. It was discussed on a radio talk show a few months ago here in Houston. And while I believe the quotes show a LACK of support for the 2nd amendment, you do not. We can disagree.

However, I stand by my supposition, Mr. Friedman would be bad for Texas, and make us on par with Minnesota, or California for electing people who have no idea how to govern into office.

I'm not an oil business failure like your demi-god GWB.

Hah. Ping any of the "cheerleaders" and ask them how I, ARMSF, feel about the policies of the President. Or simply peruse my statements regarding Miers, DPW, immigration, and the GWOT. I am a Texan first. The President and that worthless yellow dog turned "R" (Perry) are both sellouts. How do you like me now?

This is the type of Texas politician that is needed to return Texas to real conservatism. http://www.house.state.tx.us/members/dist122/bio/corte.htm

Funny that Frank Corte is supported by Governor Perry. Perhaps it is coincidence. Kinky wants to appoint a great singer (but still a stoner) to public office.

"Border Security Key to Homeland Security
Gov. Rick Perry knows that the greatest threat to our future is a porous and unsecured border. Instead of waiting for Washington to do its job, he ordered the most aggressive state-led border security initiative in America. Perry’s actions include:

Ordering the National Guard to provide border security support six months before the President requested it.
Providing millions of dollars to help border sheriffs increase patrols.
Authorizing the use of DPS state troopers, helicopters, SWAT teams, covert surveillance teams, canine units, game wardens and the Texas Civil Air Patrol to stop illegal activity on the border.
Posting hidden surveillance cameras that will broadcast via the Internet so that Texans can help secure our border.
Fighting for $100 million to fund these border security efforts until Washington meets its responsibility.
As a result of Perry’s leadership, Texas is shutting down criminal activity on the border and our families are safer. The most recent effort, Operation El Paso, reported a 40% to 70% reduction in crime in the four participating counties."

At this point, it's all about entertainment. Heck, even Ann Richards couldn't screw up Texas. The governor is basically a figurehead/frontman.

How does that play into the discussion with LF on Kinky?

I frankly just don't like Perry. He's a tax and spend Republican.
