Musician Kinky Friedman for governor of Texas?
"WHY THE HELL NOT"
No that's not a political endorsement, but a quote from his website. So is this:
"...the last independent governor of Texas was Sam Houston. The next will be Kinky Friedman."
God bless Texas! Good 'ole independent Texas. Kinky Friedman promises "Independence from politics-as-usual." Given his campaign commercials, I'd say he delivers.
I did take time to read his position on the issues at: http://www.kinkyfriedman.com/issues/
and I like what he's got to say, especially his Ten reasons to elect...But I have to say that what caught my eye was the TV commercial with the dog called "Cowboy Way". http://www.kinkyfriedman.com/multimedia/_video/CowboyWay/
I'm guess I'm starting to feel Kinky, 'cause the rhetoric is as refreshing as a cold beer on a hot Texas day in a dry county, but to be perfectly honest...you had me at "pit bull"!
