from the annals of weirdness (and yes it's TX)
Victory! For The Democrat Who Wants Obama Impeached
By Richard Connelly in Political Animals
Wed., Mar. 3 2010 @ 12:12PM

​We told you recently about the newest entry into the Hall of Weirdness that is Sugar Land's 22nd Congressional District: Kesha Rogers, a Lyndon LaRouche follower who was running in the Democratic primary by calling for the impeachment of President Obama.

She won. Easily.

Rogers took 52 percent of the 14,300 or so votes cast in the Democratic primary, probably not a few of which came from mischievous cross-over Republicans.

The chances of her beating incumbent Pete Olson in the fall, of course, are as remote as Obama getting impeached anytime soon. Then again, if Olson doesn't get on this ol' impeachment bandwagon soon, Sugar Land might just rebel and send Rogers to Washington, where she no doubt will call for a LaRouchite agenda of investigating the Queen of England for running a drug cartel.

How will the state Democratic treat Rogers?

Not nicely.

1. Should this be a wave election and Republicans win house and Senate...

impeachment talks will begin in December.

But this woman is a freak. Being a follower of Lyndon LaRouche requires that.

In Texas, even many Democrats are just a little strange.

2. One of her primary opponents was a pro-life activist
And yeah, it looks like it could have been a dirty trick from the GOP. The only way to tell, however, is to research the poll books.
