Calpundit offers a terrifying glimpse into the planks of the extremist Texas Republican Party Platform. From the party that brought you the Attack on Iraq, here are a few more gems:

• Abolish Social Security
• Abolish the Minimum Wage
• Abolish the Federal Income Tax
• Outlaw abortion
• Outlaw gay sex
• Abolish the EPA
• Abolish the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms
• Abolish the position of Surgeon General
• Abolish the Environmental Protection Agency
• Abolish the Department of Energy
• Abolish the Department of Housing and Urban Development
• Abolish the Department of Education
• Teach creationism as science

I don’t know about you, but this scares me. And it baffles me - what on earth do they want this country to look like? Why do they feel that the government should exert such strong control over individuals and global events, but have radically reduced influence over business, education, and the environment? It sounds radical, it IS radical, and it is dangerous. These people must be stopped.
