Ride ‘Em Jewboy: Kinky Friedman for governor of Texas!

During the 1970s, Kinky Friedman and the Texas Jewboys sang country-and-western songs like “They Ain’t Makin’ Jews Like Jesus Anymore,” “Asshole from El Paso” and “Get Your Biscuits in the Oven and Your Buns in the Bed.” After a second career as a mystery novelist, Kinky is now running for governor of Texas. And some political prognosticators think he might just have a chance.

Read the entire story in Dan Halpern’s “Lone Star: Kinky Friedman on the campaign trail” in the 8-22-05 issue of The New Yorker.

“May the god of your choice bless you.”
–Kinky Friedman
