Now, look, Ted Cruz, just because the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) wrote model "stand your ground" legislation that got adopted by a whole bunch of states , that doesn't mean they want you going around reminding people of that, OK? On Thursday, Sen. Cruz (R-Poutine) gave a speech at the group's winter meeting, and
<i>&quot;My advice to ALEC is very, very simple: Stand your ground.&rdquo;</i>
Once again, the right-wing goes for the violent metaphor. Remember &quot;second amendment remedies&quot;, or Sarah Palin&#039;s &quot;surveyor&#039;s marks&quot;, or Ted Nugent&#039;s &quot;suck on my machine gun&quot;.
As Delicious as this is, I&#039;ll bet we could find some even worse things ALEC has published to add to our little faxed packet.
So the question is, are any of YOU drunk enough to go looking for them? I actually have to pay attention at work today for once, so my booze must sadly stay in the cabinet...and there is no way I&#039;m doing ALEC research sober :P
It&#039;s so disappointing to find that the devilishly witty wingnut Baldwin portrayed on &quot;30 Rock&quot; was wholly a creation of....Tina Fey.
Guess that&#039;s why they call it &quot;acting.&quot;
<blockquote>...a document...published by The Guardian that, although not adopted, would have required state chairs to take a loyalty oath: &quot;I will act with care and loyalty and put the interests of the organization first.&quot;</blockquote> And kiss Karl Rove&#039;s ring?

Why? Wolfie will just say &quot;some hands may need washing, opinions differ, we&#039;ll have to leave it there&#039;
Sorry Dr Frankenstein, no matter how loudly you sing &#039;Putting On The Ritz&#039; you&#039;re not tap dancing your way out of this...
I suppose Cruz is in the just plain maladjusted category.

...the gays are recruiting?! Is there a signing bonus?!?!?!
Well, if not ALEC, it must be Obama&#039;s fault.
Someone needs to find this ALEC a girlfriend. Or boyfriend.
&quot;We stand by everything we say, except when it is inconvenient or costly to do so&quot;...seems like I&#039;ve heard that before.

Even though they took all our best names, like Lance and Julian.
But what about gay marriages between heterosexuals?
The best part of the ALEC leak:
