Sometimes I wonder just where these people come from; what hollow log did they inhabit before springing themselves forth upon an innocent & bemused populace. Here we have a man so lovingly embraced by the abortion issue that he's rewritten his entire identity over it. Really, even the most talanted & wretchedly drunken of Disney's in-house, writing staff couldn't make this one up: legally changes name to 'Pro-Life'
by Nick Langewis
As disgraced U.S. Senator Larry Craig heads towards retirement, a man seeking his seat has taken an unusual step in his strategy:
He has changed his legal name to a political stance.
A 66-year-old Idaho strawberry farmer, formerly known after a previous name change as Marvin Pro-Life Richardson, is now, simply, "Pro-Life."
"I think it's just and I think it's proper to have Pro-Life on the ballot," Pro-Life told the Idaho Press-Tribune. "If I save one baby's life, it's worth it."
Pro-Life made the change after an unsuccessful run for governor under the Constitution Party in 2006, hoping this time to skirt the state policy that prevented him from using what was then his middle name as his name on the ballot, as the state considered it not a name, but a slogan.
Officials must now recognize Pro-Life's legal name.

Shouldn't someone in Idaho change her name to "Pro-Life" and run for the same office as "Pro-Choice"? We need to send in our own goofballs to counter this unfair name recognition advantage on the Idaho ballet!!!
And, I think it is important to remember that we do get good spuds from Idaho. Only apparently, they are growing them larger these days...

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.
Why not question something for a change?

If he wanted to guarantee himself votes, he should have legally changed his name to "Free Booze."

Indeed, but judging from the somewhat American Gothic aspect of the guy's photo, I doubt he'd 'a thought of it.
I garnered from the article that he's going to continue to fruitlessly run for office every time he gets the chance. If so, he'll be election season comic relief for years to come.

WARNING! IMAGE BELOW MAY OFFEND PC NAZIS! |
One way to fix this problem is the unbelievably disgusting fecal transplant, wherein bacteria located within feces of a donor is placed in your lower colon to have a grand old time and start a new life in your bowels. . |
Bush got one of these, but they accidentally put him into the brain surgery operating room. The donor is shown below with his donated replacement for Bush's brain.
