GOP Poster Child

An urban Representative in Oklahoma has just become a national star on the political stage. Sadly, for her of course, is the reason she is such a rising star is because she's also a rising joke.

GOP State Representative Sally Kern looks like an unassuming old lady. The typical small town woman you expect to be at home baking pies for grandchildren. But no. In secret, (at least in the past) Sally Kern, has been living her life as a homophobic, racist, teacher hating, children hating, intolerant Republican leader and wife to the pastor of the Olivet Baptist Church.

Candidate 2.0 vs. Senator Abacus

Seven months ago, Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe sat in a committee meeting and told former Vice President Al Gore that global warming was a lie. After a rambunctious few moments where Inhofe refused to let VP Gore answer any of his accusations or questions, Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) who was leading the hearing, informed Sen. Inofe that elections have consequences.
