Feeling frustrated with Colorado’s crop of gubernatorial candidates? Well, it could be worse. In another edition of “At Least They’re Not Your Legislators,” we head to Minnesota:
Yesterday I added the name of Jonathon Sharkey to the lengthy list of candidates running for Minnesota Governor in 2006. Sharkey — the candidate of the Vampyres, Witches and Pagans Party — previously was a political activist and GOP congressional candidate for office in New Jersey and elsewhere under his former semi-pro wrestling name of Rocky “Hurricane” Flash. Anyways, I had mistakenly described Sharkey on the Minnesota page as a “Wiccan Dark Priest.” Because of this I quickly received the following email from Sharkey’s campaign: “Thank you very much for placing Jonathon’s name for the race for Governor. However, he is a Satanic Dark Priest, not a Wiccan. Wiccan’s do not believe in Christianity at all. Satanist are against the Christian God … Can you please update this as soon as your time allows, to avoid the Wiccan Communities becoming angry at Jonathon.” We certainly don’t want to offend the Wiccans, do we. FYI: Sharkey has also filed paperwork with the FEC to run for President in 2008 as the VWP nominee.

I guess this gives a whole new meaning to the term “Blood Sucking Politicians”
I can hear the belt-tightening now: “sacrifices will have to be made…”
You’re on a roll today, PR!
It’ll be like voting for Cthulhu – why vote for the lesser of evils?
Cthulhu fhtagn!
Greetings my fellow Americans,
At least unlike Bush and the other politicans we have in DC, I am completely honest about my beliefs, as well as who and what I am.
Here is my agenda. What do you think.
1) Improving education/school systems,
including school bus transportation.
2) Farming – helping Minnesota farmers
with state grants and tax-breaks, so
they can keep their farms, and make a
significant profit.
3) Start an Anti-Drug task force to go
after drug dealers, especially in and
around schools.
4) Better benefits for all Minnesota
Veterans, especially those who were
injured in the Gulf Wars, Vietnam, any
and all combat operations, along with
those who were injured during military
service.
5) I will not allow the activation of any
Minnesota National Guard Units to fight
in Iraq. I will lobby to bring our Guard
troops back from Iraq ASAP! I will defy
President Bush if need be.
6) Any one found committing an act of
terrorism in Minnesota will be IMPALED
by me at the State Capital. If the US
DOJ wants to prosecute me for it, then I
will take my chances in Court.
7) Blacklist – I will blacklist all
companies that have left the US and
relocated to another country. No
company will prosper as a result of
causing Americans financial hardship
from losing their jobs, as a result of
that company relocating to another
country.
8) DWI/DUI – Those who are found guilty
of DWI/DUI of drugs and/or alcohol in
Minnesota will serve time in jail for
their criminal and dangerous actions. A
minimum of 3-months without a stay of
judgement.
9) All religious beliefs will be
protected under my administration. I will
erect the “Wall of Religious Beliefs” in
the Capital. This wall will have
everything from the Wiccan Rede to the
10 Commandments.
10) Judicial Reform is a major personal
concern of mine. I will enact a law that
holds judges and prosecutors liable for
wrongly incarcerating innocent people.
In addition, I will have people who file
false complaints against another
person imprisoned for their illegal
actions.
11) Boot Camp for juvenile offenders.
If parents are unable to cope with an
out of control child, who is repeatedly
breaking laws and/or are failing to
attend school regularly, the child will
be placed in a “Boot Camp” program ran
by reserve or former military drill
sergeants.
12) Casinos – I will issue 13 land base
casinos licenses in Minnesota. These
licenses will be issued to the highest
bidders. The highest bidder will receive
the best site. The money from these bids
will go to fund all aspects of
education, farming and veterans
programs. The tax revenue will be used
to help lower taxes throughout the
state.
13) MEDICAL CARE AT A FAIR PRICE.
Minnesotans work too hard, to have to
worry about the rising cost of medical
insurance and prescriptions. Everyone
should be able to enjoy their free time
to the fullest. I will introduce an
?Universal Medical/prescription Payment
Plan,? for those Minnesotans who do
not receive medical insurance from their
employer. This plan will allow everyone
to pay a set rate for medical/presription
insurance, in accordance to what they
make, not what the insurance companies
say they have to pay. Hence, allowing
all Minnesotans to receive the same
type to medical treatment as The
President, without paying outrageous
premiums and/or co-payments. Those who
are unemployed, indigent, disabled or
unable to work will receive emergency
medical care and prescriptions
regardless.
Nel Sangue,
Jonathon “The Impaler” Sharkey
flippin’ sweet! the dark lord himself is in da hizzouse!

First of all just because he thinks he’s a vampire doesn’t matter all that much to me.
When you read his platform personally it sounds pretty fair to me. Also when you think
about it if he hadn’t said he was a vampire and told everyone his beliefs do you really
think you would be acting this close minded. Think about it!!!

I am wiccan and do try to give everyone a chance. I have went to Mr. Sharkey’s website http://www.jonathonforgovernor.us/Home_page.html I’ll give him this. He has cajones the size of Texas. With as right wing as President Bush is, most liberals (although liberal is not really what he is, is he?) are running scared. I do not, however, feel that he has much chance of making it. He takes it to the extreme, almost contradicting himself in the process. I also do not like being put into the same party as him. I do not have such extreme views. “In ye harm none” is the wiccan rede. Well, he wants to harm. True, it would be “bad people”. He really should take wiccan off of his party.
