Just Plain Weird

Alan Keyes, if nothing else, has managed to turn himself into even more of a joke now that he's been given the, uh, mini-bully pulpit that comes with a carpetbagger Senate candidacy. In the past week or so, he's managed to:

Liken abortion to both 9/11 AND slavery.
Call for the abolition of the 17th Amendment.
Come out in favor of reparations--sort of--by suggesting that descendents of slaves be exempt from federal income taxes (though Keyes would like to simply abolish the federal income tax. I guess this makes him in favor of abolishing the 16th Amendment).
Justify running for Senate in a state he doesn't reside in--after harshly criticizing Hillary Clinton for doing the same in 2000.

Jesus' General has more.

In a sense, this is almost better than seeing Barack Obama run unopposed for election, as Keyes demonstrates quite clearly that he, and, by extension, his faction of the GOP, is simply bizarre.
