Let& #39;s talk about this BANANAS story in Nebraska, where the state& #39;s Republican Party just used atheism to smear *one of their own candidates.*
Strap in. This is crazy.
Strap in. This is crazy.
District 1 is represented by Sen. Julie Slama, who has the backing of the current governor.
She& #39;s being challenged by another conservative, Janet Palmtag.
There& #39;s a good chance both will get through the (non-partisan) primary next month and fight for the seat in November.

The GOP doesn& #39;t want a conservative challenger to a safe seat. But how do they attack Palmtag, since they all have similar positions?
Solution! She once agreed with a liberal senator that a state prison head should NOT have received a raise, bringing his salary to $250,000.

That liberal senator also "sued" God in 2007 to make a point about frivolous lawsuits.
Bingo! The GOP released this mailer.

It& #39;s hard to see, but on the far left, the circle says SENATOR ERNIE CHAMBERS: TRIED TO SUE GOD
Next to him is a picture of Palmtag saying “I’VE GOT TO AGREE WITH ERNIE ON THIS.”
Totally unrelated. Totally dishonest. Par for the course for the GOP.
