Brownwood & Her Religious Extremists: " It's kind of scary ".

Note: We supported Republican Mike Conaway, Brownwoods Congressman. He lost Brown County to HPU Professor Bill Lester. The Bulletin Editorialized the race as a clean one. Research the race for yourself. (see our archives) We disagree with the Bulletin's assesment and ran an ad to that affect. We agree with the San Angelo Standard Times which described Conaway as in "the mainstream". It's encouraging to see mainstream Republicans (see Conaways Chief of Staff, Jeff Burton, emails below) acknowledge what is going on in our end of the district ! If you need to hear some "scary" for yourself, just listen to newstalk 96.9FM !

“ They believe that they can do or say anything in the name of God and it's ok.
We ran into it all over during the campaign. But we know now that it's only a
small segment of the population...About 25% :) ”
