Heritage Can't Find Crazy Enough Conservatives

After reading this – I don’t think there is a conservative that will ever be conservative enough for Oklahoma GOP conservatives and the Heritage Foundation.  They may have finally backed themselves into a corner when it comes to recruiting electable candidates.

Oklahomans have evidently taken an extreme right turn into kuku-dom.

Rep. Frank Lucas (R-Okla.) went after conservative groups in a town hall meeting on Monday, saying he was being assaulted by organizations like the Heritage Foundation.

“I’m under attack by those people,” Lucas said. “They’re coming after me.   ...  

His remarks were prompted by constituents who came to the town hall event and were upset that he didn't work to cut more from the farm bill. 

The Heritage Foundation's advocacy arm has threatened to support a “real conservative” to run against Lucas and has aired radio spots denouncing the congressman's support for the farm bill.

"Lucas is working hard to pass a trillion dollar piece of legislation that he's calling a farm bill. But only 20 percent of the funds would go to support farmers," one of the group's radio ads said. "The rest would go to bankroll President Obama's food stamp agenda."

Are you joking me?????????

Lucas is an alumni of the extremist ultraconservative right-wing American Legislative Exchange Council. He’s evidently not crazy enough for ALEC member The Heritage Foundation.  Wonder when they are going to take away his ALEC membership card.

The article also included this:

Lucas may have reason to fear conservative pressure. Former Rep. John Sullivan (R-Okla.) lost to tea party candidate Jim Bridenstine in last year's primary election, due in part to Bridenstine's support from conservative groups. 

John Sullivan – also a member of the extremist ultraconservative right-wing American Legislative Exchange Council.  

You gotta figure that if ALEC members aren't extreme enough - that sooner or later the extreme right wing is going to be hitting the insane asylums - or maybe the private prisons -  to find candidates to run as psychopathic conservatives. 

Maybe if we're lucky they will eat their own - until none of them are left.

MM - MM Good!
