Found a video interview with Kinky from WOAI out of San Antonio. If you don’t know where Kinky stands on issues–and certainly if you’ve never seen him speak in person, you should watch it.
The reporter is hard to hear and it looks like it’s of online-only production quality (camera bobbles around–looks like an online crew doing convergeance work and not a professional TV news crew interview) but still provides information and perspective to those who haven’t seen him speak yet and want more information:

On another excellent edition of Scarborough Country, Kinky came out in favor of Joe Lieberman leaving the Democratic Party and Kinky acknowledged that liberals aren’t pro-America:
SCARBOROUGH: Hey, Kinky, could the argument be that both parties are extreme, vote for the new independent?
FRIEDMAN: That could certainly be. I think the mood of the country is really, really independent. I mean, I think the winds of change are really blowing right now. And all the—the way I see Lieberman, he’s very—he’s pro-America, unashamedly, and he’s pro-Israel. And these liberals are not.
Amen, Kinky, amen!

Thanks again for supporting Kinky. Here is the link to the WOAI interview of Kinky Friedman along with a few other great interviews of the Kinkster himself. Enjoy. If you want to link to my page, I’ll link to yours.
The most interesting thing I’ve found lately is this interview at Dallas Morning News. It’s a side by side interview with Chris Bell and Kinky Friedman. Apparently Chris Bell’s only proposal for funding education is by taxing more businesses, and on the toll roads issue, while Kinky Friedman is totally against toll roads, Chris Bell would consider toll roads for new highway construction. Check out the interview. That’s the two candidates main policy difference. Let me know what you think.
