Basil Marceaux? Puh-leez, he is SO last week -- and evidently you missed the whole Ernest J. Pagels for Senate campaign in Wisconsin. The GOP has a surplus of wackos this year that make their usual wackos look moderate by comparison. Our current fave (election is Aug. 3!) is Joan Heffington for Governor of Kansas:

Talk about bringing the crazy! The deeper you go, the more bizarro her universe becomes. From her web site, her top three goals as Governor:
GOALS AS GOVERNOR:
Sign into law only those bills that have 2/3 approval of the people

Require that a Biblical and Constitutional reason exist for the passage of any new laws

Allow teaching of Christianity vs. evolution in schools
Shoot, copy-paste doesn't include the little crosses she uses for bullet points.

Plus, she's got this "organization," the "Association for Honest Attorneys," which lists as its board of directors (I am not making this up) Joan (not an attorney, BTW); a lawyer disbarred for being totally incompetent and also a dick, basically; and God.

Hi-larious!!! The GOP is a national treasure as our finest source of entertainment!!!!

Basil Marceaux: Your pan has flashed; time to pack it in.
WHY DID YOU HAVE TO LEAVE US PAGELS?
The Basil Marceaux Has Become SELF-AWARE, Is No Longer That Fun

Since we introduced you to your 2010 election boyfriend, Basil Marceaux, the man and his opposition to traffic-stop slavery have achieved virulence here on the Internets. Basil’s infamous local news broadcast introduction to voters has shown up and been laughed about on teevee shows as well. But the problem is that, despite his seeming avoidance of sanity and spelling and grammar norms, Basil is aware that he is now Internet-famous and is now looking to capitalize on it. Basil needs to put on a brave face and go back to being 100% crazy, because right now he may be JUMPING THE SHARK.

See, we can laugh at him and his badge, but he consciously calls himself “Basil Marceaux Dot Com” now. Is there too much fake here to enjoy the real craziness? It is an open, evolving discussion.

Yes, this is like an actual YouTube account. And he has a real logo. And look: an official Zazzle store. Just like any other YouTube star! STOP GOING MAINSTREAM ON US, BASIL.

Mediate decided to do some “Jack Stuef Journalism” and called up Basil, and look how he opened the interview: “You’re not gonna make an ass of me, now, are you?” C’mon, Basil, at least pretend to not understand what is going on.

Basil Marceaux is IN HOLLYWOOD right now, as he will appear on tonight’s Jimmy Kimmel Live. Please, for the love of God, nobody teach him phonics while he is hanging out with all the other celebrities out there. We still have hope for you, Basil. [Mediate]

Story with embedded links that I'm too lazy to copy-paste but which help it somehow make sense:

Dang, Joan Heffington lost the GOP primary. But she STILL managed to get MORE THAN 50,000 KANSAS REPUBLICANS TO VOTE FOR HER.

A-fucking-mazing.

Of course she lost Sue...

She was running against the popular Senator Sam Brownback...

She never had a chance....

Brownback's going to win that race by 20 points in November....
