When I was searching for information on that guy those sites did have stories about him and boy were they making hay. But lets' face it the guy is a nut-job.Sadly, the fact that a nut-job like him can be elected to be a congressman says more about the system and both parties than it ever does about democrats or republicans. What must his opponent have been like? Why are his antics only penny news? Why are congressmen like him not run out of town on a rail? Why don't his staff tell him that he is completely misreading the constitution when he thinks that it says the states must trade in gold or silver?We all need to be careful of nut like him. Today he tries to protect all life by passing a law that births that begin with a live fetus and end with a dead one should be investigated. It makes a tiny bit of sense. No doubt some of those deaths are intentional and not carried out by a "doctor" but if the law were to pass all miscarriages would be subject to investigation and since maybe 20% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage that could involve a really huge number of women who were just grieving the baby they wanted.Most important, laws are not limited to the intent of the person who writes them. The interstate commerce clause was written so one state would not take advantage of another and today it threatens to render the entire constitution irrelevant.We all get caught up in defending those who tend to be on the right side against the crazy attacks from the other side everyday. But when those crazy attacks turn out to reflect that the guy on our side is actually crazy we would be best to just admit it and move on.
