Where Do They Find These People?

You may have heard about this guy, NC Sen. Buck Newton(R-Of Course) who's running for Attorney General and wants to keep North Carolina "straight." It gets better:

"We all know that the folks that wave the rainbow flags and things like that are politically very upset about the way things are today. They’re upsets about the way things have always been in this state," he said earlier in his remarks. "And they're bound and determined to try to change it, whether it’s by winning elections in the city of Charlotte on their city council or whether it’s wining elections in November in the General Assembly or whether it’s winning elections in November for our governor."

Winning elections? You mean, by actually voting?

It's called "democracy," Buck. You might want to try it.
