I’ve previously posted items about the batshit crazy antics of Texas governor Rick Perry (here and here), but apparently he’s not the only one. A handful (or rather, a few handfuls) of elected officials feel that their place is not to act on behalf of the people they represent, but rather to act in a manner which they believe represent god’s will.
Prepare to see some of my artwork getting a bit more political in the near future.

I normally don’t throw out curses online very frequently… but this is absofuckinglutely batshit crazy. First TX governor Perry proclaimed statewide days of prayer for rain, and now this??? I seriously hope no taxpayer money is going towards any aspect of this…

Office of the Governor Rick Perry [Proclamation] Gov. Perry Issues Proclamation for Days of Prayer for Rain in Texas →
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RICK PERRY, Governor of Texas, under the authority vested in me by the Constitution and Statutes of the State of Texas, do hereby proclaim the three-day period from Friday, April 22, 2011, to Sunday, April 24, 2011, as Days of Prayer for Rain in the State of Texas.
No comment (and by no comment, I mean… basically, WTF?)
