Rep. Mark Hilton(R) was angered that he was referred to as a “snake handler”
http://informinc.net/blog/tag/snake-handler/

OUTSIDE THE PIT: Identifying Rep. Mark Hilton as a “snake handler” angered his close associates last week. Actually, the item identified Mr. Hilton as a spokesman for the ultra-conservative evangelicals in his party. Rep. Hilton feels he was unfairly tarnished with the “snake handler” label and we apologize.

1. ROFL!
I looked at his webpage: doughy conservative, check; Catawba County, check; introduced DOM legislation, check; introduced "conscience" provision in denying reproductive care to women, check.

Rep. Hilton, if the copperhead fits, wear it.

6. Here is another statement from Hilton:

"When I was first elected, I thought we had to win every fight, and I got upset when we didn’t," Hilton said. “Now I understand that God hasn’t put me here to win every time, but he has put me here to stand for what is right.”

Gawd has nothing to do with anything, Mr. Snake Handler.

7. Whose snake is he handling?
Which is a question I always want to ask about these extremist tools.

Or what brothel does he prefer? These turds are always hiding something.
