Forget the hunters -- Kinky will win on this issue alone:

"Kinky Friedman, the proudly politically incorrect entertainer running for governor, said Wednesday he wouldn't put just 1,500 National Guard troops on the Texas-Mexico border, he'd send 10,000.

"We've waited 153 years for the feds to help us," Friedman said. "They haven't yet. We have our own army. I want 10,000 Texas National Guard troops on the border and I want them now."

More important Kinky Kwotes:

"Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder"

"I even went so far as to become a Southern Baptist for a while, until I realized that they didn't hold 'em under long enough."

"I just want Texas to be number one in something other than executions, toll roads and property taxes."

"I admit I was drinking a Guinness . . . but I did not swallow"

Kinky flip-flops.

Yep, he's sure a different kind of conservative.

Go Republitards!
More of the same, please!

Based on the article it seems that Kinky doesn't understand the difference between a "hunter" and a "poacher" of endangered species.

He's just another piece of shit anti-hunter. No matter what his other views are, he screwed himself in a state where hunting is a huge economic benefit.

Is there any better reason for NOT voting for him than knowing that Don Imus is a supporter. There's a couple of muttonheads, for you. Of course, this is Texas we're talking about. The nation/state that brought us "W." Ya'll deserve to have a Kinky Friedman as Gubna. I always thought the title "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" was redundant.

Rick Perry will win with 35% of the vote.

Sold American

--Kinky Friedman

Faded jaded falling cowboy star,
Pawnshops itching for your old guitar.
Where youre going, God only knows,
The sequins have fallen from your clothes.
Once you heard the opry crowd applaud,
Now youre hanging out at fourth and broad
On the rain wet sidewalk remembering the time
When coffee with a friend was still a dime.

And everythings been sold american,
The early times is finished and the want ads all are read.
Everyones been sold american
In dreaming dreams in a rollaway bed.

Writing down your memoirs on some window in the frost,
Roulette eyes reflecting another morning lost.
Hauled in by the metro for killing time and pain
With a singing brakeman screaming through your veins.

And everythings been sold american,
The lonely night is mourning for the death it never dies.
Everyones been sold american
Dont let me catch you laughing when the jukebox cries.

You told me you were born so much higher than life,
But Ive seen the faded pictures of your children and your wife.
Now theyre fumbling through your wallet and theyre trying to find your name,
Its almost like they raise the price of fame.

And everythings been sold american,
No place to go and brother, no place to stay.
Everyones been sold american
Just let that golden greyhound roll your soul away.

Kinky did not write "Sold American".
He did record it.

I am not so sure that he was all that anti huner and believe it or not most of us here in texas dont vote on that one issue alone.......as far as flack he is getting a TON MORE from some welfare pimps for his comments about people from new orleans....something about how the addicts are all staying or something like that........
kinky's problem is he is TOO MUCH of a cartoon chararacter...

"kinky's problem is he is TOO MUCH of a cartoon chararacter..."

May be true. He still has a point.
If Carole and whats-his-name would bow out I bet Gov Haircut would lose. As it is, Perry will win with 35% of the vote.

I'm not a Texan, but I shore do like me some Kinky.

I hope he don't start talkin' shit about rodeo.

Anybody that could write Ol' Ben Lucas has my vote

He's just another piece of shit anti-hunter. No matter what his other views are, he screwed himself in a state where hunting is a huge economic benefit.

Exactly what percent of the Texas economy does hunting contribute? Remember, it's going to be HUGE (your words)

I realize that in Shitsville, TX you're not a man 'til theres some dead thing hanging from your wall, but what is that percentage again?

I already know the number, but was wondering if you did. Google away as necessary.

Also, Kinko wants TX to be number one? He can add these to the list. Number one of the list of WORST POLLUTION and only one place away from the top spot in the most illiterate state. Fuck Texas.
