Brownback still thinks that his economic policies are working just fine to the point of being willing to defend them using extra-constitutional means.

Brownback apparently drinks his own kool-aid, and is strongly addicted to it.

In his mind it HAS to work, whether it actually does or not, because he sees himself as inspired by none less than the Almighty himself. Any who oppose this sort of mind set will only be seen as one thing; Agents of Satan.

There is no reasoning, there is no objectivity, there is only strict adherence to "Gods Law"* above the laws of men. (* Whatever TF that is.)

This is what makes Theocrats so tyrannical and dangerous.

Only the people of Kansas can do anything about this lunatic.

Oh, he's on a mission from God? Holy fuck, as 'Jake Blues' might so aptly put it.

Seems to me that idea works a lot better in a comedy script than it does in real life.

This sort of seems like the same thing that Perry was indicted for in Texas, except he was going after prosecutors and using the threat of veto to coerce their actions. I cannot fathom that threatening to defund a state court in case they decided against the constitutionality of a law is legal. Maybe the idea is so crazy there is no law against it.

I disagree, it's society as in building a society we all can coexist, may be somewhat of an equal footing. Communism is what you get when fascists get into the act.

Let me ask you this, why is Communism good in China that we support to the tune of $400 billion+ in tax free trade annually? But we embargo Cuba.
