Kootenai County has several levels of Republican insanity.

First is the party's Central Committee.

Next comes the Pachyderm Club. They think the KCRCC is too liberal.

And then the Reagan Republicans, who think the Pachyderms are too liberal.

Next is Rally Right, who thinks the Reagan Republicans are too liberal.

There used to be a Kootenai County Tea Party, but they were one of the groups targeted for special consideration by the IRS after they illegally tried to file for tax-exempt status, and disbanded rather than provide information or pay taxes.

Now let's talk about good news and bad news: Good news is coming to work to find out the editor of a national magazine lives in your town and you're going to run a story about him in the Sunday edition. Bad news is finding out the magazine is The New American.

Oh my...how many of y'all think this is the Idaho legislature? It's one county's party apparatus. If it passed it would have been sent to Boise, where they're too busy with abortion and slot machines to worry about this resolution.
