I guess the the Koch brothers did little research on their Tea Party candidates. Why are the Tea Party candidates so flawed? I think it is obvious that while many in the Tea Party have legitimate grievances with economy they are just superficially involved. This opens the doors for the weirdoes. As soon as the economy comes back if we are able to get real job creation policies implemented, the movement will be dead. After-all the Tea Party stigma is a badge most smart folks will eventually walk away from when they realize they were simply used this cycle.

Be careful what you do in college, because you never know when you’ll run for Senate. It’s the kind of warning that parents give their kids all the time, but one that Rand Paul may not have taken to heart, considering recent reports that the Kentucky GOP Senate candidate’s college secret society was actually one that was banished from campus because of it’s anti-Christian views.
Politico reports on the controversial history of the Baylor University organization:
The NoZe Brotherhood, as the group was called, was formally banned by Baylor two years before Paul arrived on the grounds of "sacrilege," the university president said at the time. "They had ‘made fun of not only the Baptist religion, but Christianity and Christ,’ " President Herbert Reynolds told the student newspaper, The Lariat.
According to Politico‘s report on the material put out by NoZe in it’s publication, The Rope, most of the writing was anti-religious satire that often mocked the university’s Christian roots.
Politico dug up one article, entitled "Fishy Bibles," that claimed an 83-year-old Californian man was actually the true wordsmith behind the bible. The falsely proclaimed author of the religious text, the piece claimed, was the result of that man providing the name of a friend, Mr. Jesus Gonzales.
It’s not the first time that supposed college-era indiscretions have plagued Paul. In August, GQ reported that Paul had kidnapped a woman in a marijuana-induced prank and forced her to "bow down and worship" their god, "Aqua Buddha." Paul denied the charge, and the woman has since admitted that she willingly took part in the stunt.
GQ also covered NoZe at the time, which it described as a group that "especially enjoyed tweaking the school’s religiosity." John Green, one of Paul’s former brothers, then told GQ that the group "aspired to blasphemy."
Jesse Benton, a spokesman for the Paul campaign, responded to the latest dispatch on the candidate’s college years.
