Two Tea Party Candidates get themselves their party's nominations. The Rand Paul says he opposes part of the civil rights act. (Political suicide.) and another one refers to Allah as "A Monkey God", then appolgizes to Hindues, who do, indeed, worship Lord Hanuman the monkey god.
I would never call Tea Partiers rednecks. I dislike the term, and anyway it doesn't apply. Terms that apply include; wingnuts, whack a moles, screwballs, loons, nutcases and fruitcakes.
Dwight Eisnehower is spinning in his grave, I'm sure.
