Purposing a $10,000 per abortion tax on clinics that perform abortions?
A 100% tax on 'violent' video games?

Oh, Texas, you card.

Locke's other platform promises call for the repeal of all alcoholic beverage laws and a 50 percent "grease tax" on "all food prepared by deep-frying or cooking in any form of oil or grease for human consumption."


Texas, you so crazy!

When new regulations are proposed and they end up being rejected, there should be a $100,000 tax to cover everyone's salary and other expenses because you wasted everyone's time with stupid ideas!

Did anyone else get the feeling during Tim Kaine's speech that Virginia should secede from the union because CLEARLY, we're better than the rest of the country?

Kaine knows the creator? Wow.

I keep calling her, but she never picks up nor calls me back.
