I’m a little surprised this hasn’t popped up yet in the press. But here’s the deal: Sheldon Goldstein is facing Stephen Broden in a runoff election on April 13. The two Republicans both want to represent District 30 in the U.S. Congress. But way back in February, before the primaries, Goldstein and Broden appeared together on a radio show called Life and Liberty, which airs on KSKY (660 AM). On the show, Broden lost his cool — so much so that the Irving PD investigated the incident and have referred it to the case to the city prosecutor. Apparently, the host, a guy named Jim Middleton, had given each candidate (there’s a third candidate in the studio, a fellow named Charles Lingerfelt) a vase as a thank-you gift. Broden went so far as to raise his vase in the air, menacing Goldstein with it. The only reason I can come up with for why the Morning News hasn’t yet reported this is that the whole incident went down on a small AM station and on the weekend to boot. Anyway, you have to listen to the audio. It’s good stuff.

ROFL. What the…?
It’s like Broden is Jekyll and Hyde. Broden is all nicey-nice one minute, then he’s ready to assault the other candidate on live radio over… name calling? Broden sounds like the arrogant class bully who is shocked that he would be challenged.
FAIL: Broden
Pastor Broden needs to name names.
Broden was on the Glenn Beck show last year (8-31-2009), and it can be seen on YouTube and other web sites. At about the 1:45 mark, we have the following.

BECK: Do you think I have it right that these are, these are Marxist radicals that have positions of tremendous power. Is that right or wrong in your view?
BRODEN: Oh, absolutely. I… I… You are dead on.

Pastor Broden, please name names. Is President Obama a Marxist radical? Is Nancy Pelosi? Is Harry Reid? Is John Boehner?
And just so we can get better at recognizing Marxist radicals, was FDR a Marxist radical? Eisenhower? Kennedy? Johnson? Reagan? Bush I? Clinton? Bush II? Which presidents were Marxist radicals?
Finally, Pastor Broden, please tell us the differences and similarities between Marxist radicals and Commies.
What is with these South Dallas politicians? I got a robo-call from “Pastor Broden” last night. It seems like half the defendents in the city hall corruption trial had titles like pastor, deacon, bishop or whatever. Well, I went to the polls yesterday for early voting. There was no “Pastor Broden” on the ballot, but there was a Stephen Broden. I voted for Goldstein.
I do not know a lot about Pastor Broden but I certainly know Mr. Goldstein lack of knowledge of law. Do a little research on his education, experience, and court cases that he has lost due to his mistakes. It will be an eye opener.
