Some Call It Sedition...

others call it just another day in the republican party!   Surprisingly, this is not in WI but in our neighbors to the west Iowa.   A republican state senate candidate has decided to bow out of the race and declare herself Senator of alternative form of Government!

A Republican state Senate candidate in Iowa has decided to bow out of the race and become a U.S. senator of an alternative form of government.

In a letter released Friday, Randi Shannon informs supporters of her new position as “U.S. Senator in the Republic of the United States of America.” You see, according to Shannon, the U.S. government has been acting unlawfully as the “‘official government,’ which clearly it is not!”

The libertarian-leaning group she joined claims it “re-inhabited” the government on March 30, 2010. The group claims the “United States Corporation” unlawfully formed in 1871 without the American people’s consent. “Since 1871, the abuses of this corporation upon both the international community as well as the American people are inestimable and unconscionable,” the group’s website claims.

"Senator" Shannon even wrote a letter(surprisingly it wasnt in crayons)::

Hello everyone, my name is Randi Shannon, and I have been honored to be Iowa’s Republican Candidate for The Office of State Senator in District 34. The support I have received from so many in this district has been just incredible! I will never forget your commitment to my campaign!

 I want to especially thank my fellow Ron Paul for President Supporters, My Fellow Members of Liberty,My Friends who home school as did I, the many Pro-Life Members who have been so supportive of my candidacy over these past few months, and of course all my supporters in the Republican Party who have offered me so much help and encouragement, including many Republican Office holders here in Iowa, I  promise you, your efforts on My behalf will be remembered.

 Ummmmmmmm

The republican party gets crazier by the day, and each turn they take on the looney clock is that much worse for America.   Since Dirty Rotten Scoundrels describes the republican party perfectly these days, how long until they run Ruprecht for Senate?

Paul Bearers

On so many levels the GOP presidential race has provided a ton of rollicking entertainment. It helps take our minds off of how dangerous many of this corral of clowns really are.

Something fascinating is happening, and that is it has become Ron Paul's turn to float to the top of the pack in the fervent hope that someone who could beat Romney now that Newt's pizza sized warts that appear, disappear and reappear based on the GOP's willingness to see them.

After all, if you follow the right wing blogs they are working hard to create a pure beyond belief conservative GOP that they worry about being stuck with Mitt. He is so chameleon that, as Will Durst put it about Bill Clinton, if you threw him into a multicolored room he would explode.

Ron Paul is definitely the fan favorite among the GOP, because as an old man he holds views that those in the party all remember back when they were college sophomores. Let's face it. Ron Paul is a libertarian and libertarians are really Republicans that like to do dope.

The problem however for the party is that the current crop of sophomores will be combing Music Man Land to drum up caucus goers during their semester break. And the way the caucuses work it takes activists to deliver the caucus votes. The ads only fluff up the GOP Iowans, but it takes real bodies to deliver the win.

The rapidly deflating Newt balloon is floating only with ads, and there is a good chance that next month he could end up lagging the pack on the way to New Hampshire.

So Dr. Paul could stroll out of the Iowa with a plurality of caucus votes. The legs propelling the Paul campaign have a strong belief in their candidate, and winning Iowa will pump their hopes, while simultaneously stoke the fears of the rest of the part.

For the GOP, Paul was to serve one function and that was to spice up the debates. Now Paul's run would no longer be a cute side show, but a threat to the "serious" wing (try to wrap your brain around that one) of the party should it go anywhere.

But the Paulites will not cease, desist, and take their orders like good little Republicans. And when that happens, things get ugly. FOX is already going after Paul and if this crusade rolls along all the rest of the GOP leadership will look to get rid of this nuisance -- With Extreme Prejudice.

Worse, the Paul bandwagon runs on very little fuel and they could take this all the way to the convention, where the campaign will undoubtedly get rolled by the party, as they hold their collective noses and nominate Mitt.

Here's where it gets interesting. Ron Paul is claiming he supports the party, but he doesn't have too many runs left in him and his supporters know that. They would more than likely beg and plead Dr. Paul to run third party.

Of course this wouldn't be the first time a Texan put a Democratic president back in the White House.
