At Least He's Not Your Candidate for the Legislature

It’s a tough call to pick a bigger clown between Phil Davidson and Hans Zeiger, a Republican candidate for the State House in Washington State. As Jordan Schrader of The Tacoma News Tribune reports:

Zeiger, the author of two books and many columns, essays and blog posts about politics and local history, recently had his writings taken down from a number of websites, including Intellectual Conservative…

…Zeiger told me those articles don’t all represent his values anymore, so he had them removed. They would be a “distraction” from the campaign, he said.

A distraction? What could he possibly have written that might have been a distraction?

One might wonder why the Girl Scouts have been spared the painful attacks that have been launched upon the Boy Scouts by the Left in recent years. The reasons are simple: the Girl Scouts allow homosexuals and atheists to join their ranks, and they have become a pro-abortion, feminist training corps. … If the Girl Scouts of America can’t get back to teaching real character, perhaps it will be time to look for our cookies elsewhere.”

Zeiger told me he still believes the Girl Scouts have strayed from their roots, but notes that isn’t likely to come up if he becomes a legislator.

Well then — no harm, no foul, right? And then there’s this gem, which just about sums up all you need to know about Zeiger:

“Growing up on talk radio, that informed some of my early views,” Zeiger told me.

Um…yeah.
