My great aunt lived in Wacko, so for years I associated the name of the town with her, but eventually the Branch Davidian event pushed that association to the side.
The "no filters" reminds me of two episodes of South Park. In one, Eric Cartman pretended to have tourette's syndrome so he can get away with saying offensive things, but then found that he was unable to stop saying things that were embarrassing to himself. The other is the one where Eric Cartman subscribes to a service called "Shitter" that immediately Tweets his thoughts to the internet.
hi Jason
i heard at least some of that mic break and 1)i wont waste energy worrying 2) i agree in that i don't think he believes everything he says 3)i think much of his campaign was shtick, and that it was actually fairly brilliant
...but, 4)he's an impulsive, vengeful child and a spoiled brat 5) he's not all that successful in the financial arena 6) he says, and i think he believes that "global warming" is "a hoax" - which straight up makes him an idiot.
What I don't understand is Louisiana. That state is losing an area of land the size of a football field every month or week or day, or something--losing land to rising water levels caused by global warming, and yet they support party the denies global warming.
I agree that he doesn't believe everything he says, but the fact that he's willing to say it is disturbing. It will be interesting to see how much of it he sticks with.
Some of the climate change deniers have conceded that the earth is warming but that it has nothing to do with human activity. The new denial is about the anthropogenic aspect.

My wife sent me a link to the Bill Moyers article too. We like Bill Moyers.
