Sharia Law for Texas
Larry Kilgore is a candidate for U.S. Senate in the Republican primary. Kilgore’s platform is, um, unusual. He wants Texas to secede and become a Christian nation. A Christian nation, apparently, would be based on Old Testament laws. You’ve got a complaint about people driving without insurance? Kilgore finds the solution in the Bible:
Excepting those executed, judges will sentence those who cannot pay restitution, to indentured servitude for up to seven years with the victim receiving all service or earnings.
Kilgore received over 50,000 votes when he ran in 2006. I note, however, that his platform, while otherwise comprehensive, conspicuously omits the Biblical dietary laws. Backing off, Larry? Fraidy cat?

Couple this with 2.5 million ARMs adjusting this year and experts expecting most of those to go bad. What can I say ? it?s Prozac time. Leave a Reply [...]
