From the mouth of Bubba

I don't know if this is factual, but it's funny as hell.


Texas Councilman T. Bubba Bechtel, a part-time City Councilman from Midland, TX , was asked on a local live radio talk show the other day just what he thought of the allegations of torture of the Iraqi prisoners. His reply prompted his ejection from the studio, but to thunderous applause from the audience.

"If hooking up an Iraqi prisoner's balls to a car's battery cables will save one Texas GI's life, then I have just two things to say":

"Red is positive"
"Black is negative"

Yes, that Texas hillbilly mentality sure has brought our country great success.

I did not know there were all that many hills in Texas, but I will take a big stick policy over a limp wrist policy when it comes to dealing with terrorists any day. Does this make me an Ohiobilly? I don't ever see myself moving, but if I ever did, Texas sounds like a great place where the wussification of America is having trouble taking root.

I didn't vote for him, but apparently someone outside of Texas did... twice

We do find many of these politicians quite endearing (and amusing) though.

I would have voted for Kinky Friedman (a Texas humorist). I remember his bumper stickers
"Kink for President: How hard can it be?" or something like that.
