Here's the latest idiot, South Carolina state senator David Thomas (of Wendy's fame!), who appears to have launched a 2010 congressional bid. His Twitter feed is loaded with goods: "Green tea (OK it's Chi Comm stuff...shame, shame) is good sub every now and then for even MY fresh ground French roast... FRENCH," "The Supreme Leader says I HAVE to get ready for work. Yes dear," and, good god, "If anyone comes upon an article on the authority of the Fed, eg the Economist, please let me know." Nice breeding, South Carolina. [Twitter via Indigo Journal]
