Indiana GOP Chairman: ‘We Don’t Condone’ Senate Candidate Who Called For Armed Revolution If 2010 Elections Don’t Work Out | TPMDC

Indiana is pretty damn conservative. They really, really, really are.

That said, even that state’s GOP head is capable of walking away from some Tea Bag genius’ call for armed insurrection.

The best rejection of the Talibangelical company trying to kill our soldiers by linking them with the Conservative Crusade comes from Marine Benjamin Busch. Give this a read and you’ll know what I mean.

In short, an article that states the obvious: progress happens and you need to prepare your society to handle it as best you can.

That means: no Luddites, no Talibangelical lies, no skimping on teaching kids FACTS. In short, do the complete opposite of what conservatives have tried to do in this nation.

You know what else doesn’t help? The media constantly lying, distorting, and hyping the wrong things about science.
