Dealing with some of the Republican GOP Grass Roots in the Deep South post-2009 was a bit of a challenge.

Tea Party people were fairly easy. They weren't "off the deep end" even though their understanding of Constitutional Law was limited to what was on a 8 page pamphlet.

The "Alex Jones" "Glenn Beck" and "Birther" people were a different story. Someone comes in spouting off the "Obama and Valerie Jerrett are Iranian Agents" BS and they kindly asked for their contact information and told that we have all the help we need at the time but we will call you if we need you.
