Thank goodness for Kansas and Missouri.

For a few days, the rest of America isn't laughing at Texas, thanks to one congressman who skinny-dipped where Jesus walked on the water and another with a divinity degree who singled out "legitimate" rapes.

In fact, I'll say Gov. Rick Perry ought to go ahead and make U.S. Reps. Kevin Yoder, R-Kan., and Todd Akin, R-Mo., Official Honorary Texans like Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and our Tarrant County pal, Glenn Beck.

So far this week, nobody has talked about Texans fearing "terror babies" or saying public schooling came from Russia.

"In Texas, we'd let him [Akin] write our women's health curriculum."

7. To give you an idea of how really stoopid that guy is,

that bit of news made the crawler of the morning news...in Montreal. In FRENCH.

6. Texas Has Seen Our Stupid Ideas Outsourced

Texas, the national laboratory for stupid ideas, as the late Molly Ivins once called it, has seen its work outsourced. Witness Kansas, Missouri, Arizona, Alabama, Georgia, and now Wisconsin.
