Reader, I lol-ed

Standard

I’m pretty critical of Republicans and conservatives on this blog, but I want to give a fair shake to the whackawoowoo Democrats we see.

For instance! Democrat Kesha Rogers won the primary for 22nd District of Texas (covering Galveston and some surrounding areas), running heavily on a single issue: President Obama must be impeached.

Candidate Rogers is a proud Larouchite. May I quote the statement her campaign made after her victory? Wonderful.

The victory in the 22nd Congressional District yesterday by LaRouche Democrat Kesha Rogers sent an unmistakable message to the White House, and its British imperial controllers: Your days are numbered. Kesha’s campaign hit relentlessly at a single theme, that President Obama must go, that his attacks on this nation – with his dismantling of the manned space program, his efforts to ram through a fascist, killer “health care” policy, his endless bailouts for Wall Street swindlers, while demanding budget cuts which will increase the death rates among the poor, the sick, the elderly and the unemployed – are not acceptable, and will not be tolerated.

Skeptics said that LaRouche’s approach is impractical, it won’t work, that Democrats will never support someone who is calling for the President’s impeachment. Obviously, the voters of the 22nd district disagreed with those skeptics, as Kesha received 53% of the vote against two opponents. As Kesha told the Galveston Daily News last night, when a reporter asked if she expected support from the Democratic Party in the fall election, “I am leading a war against the British Empire. I’m not worried about what Democratic Party hacks say or do.”

Read the whole thing, if you like. FYI, the acronym “LYM” stands for “Larouche Youth Movement.”

The 22nd district is Tom Delay’s old district.

Here’s her introductory video. I can’t watch it because I’m day jobbing, but does she really promise to “take our troops out of the war zone and put them into space”? Look out, British Empire!
