Legislative candidate Sean Tevis made the popular boingboing and crooksandliars Web sites with a cartoon pitch to help him unseat Rep. Arlen Siegfreid, R-Olathe. Boingboing says that Tevis is “a geeky geek from Kansas who’s fed up with his state rep, an anti-abortion, anti-evolution, pro-censorship, pro-surveillance, anti-gay incumbent.” Tevis called for 3,000 people to each donate $8.34 in support of open government, personal property and ending the sales tax on food. He’s already more than met his goal. What will he do with all that Internet dough? Boingboing said it will help him kick Siegfreid’s “(extremely tight) ass.”

drugs are bad, mmmkay?
Some drugs are bad when misused.. but not as bad as an anti-abortion, anti-evolution, pro-censorship, pro-surveillance, anti-gay incumbent… Sean Tevis won my $8.34.
No sales tax on food!
He’s got my $$$.
Seigfried has got to go! I’d vote for anyone over him. I’m not fond of the weird cartoon thingie, but so help me god I’m sending this guy 20 bucks as soon as my paycheck gets here.
Now can we get Kinzer out too?
Hey I like this guy! I might just have to join the 3000 my own self.
As a born Kansan who’s been fed up with our anti-abortion, anti-evolution, pro-censorship, pro surveillance, anti-gay incumbents for well over five decades, I say it’s about time! My check is ready for tomorrow’s mail.
After reading about this on PZ’s blog I sent in my $8.34.
While I try to refrain from commenting on Kansas politics, I like this guy too. And the homage to XKCD to quite amusing!
$8.34 is a whole lot cheaper then http://rawstory.com//news/2008/McCain_aide_linked_to_Bush_cash_0720.html
Yea, one guy’s going to end sales tax on food when we’ve got a governor who spends money like there’s no tomorrow. Sure. Keep sending in your $8.34, morons. Sounds like you’ve got as much common sense as this cartoon idiot.
This reminds me of the Blaise Pascal quote: “Nature has perfections, in order to show that she is the image of God; and defects, to show that she is only his image.”!
