  According to what I've read, in early 2000 Jones 
  was one of seven Republican candidates for state 
  representative in Texas House District 48, an 
  open seat swing district based in Austin, Texas.

Maybe, but I don't think so.

Jones was born in Parkland Hospital in Dallas, Texas,
and grew up in the suburb of Rockwall. He graduated 
from Anderson High School in northwest Austin, Texas 
in 1993.

Sorry I quickly read your post as reporting his age as 48. :D  Which I 
knew it was not.  But I don't recall him saying he ever ran for office.  
And he does mention another Alex Jones though I believe a journalist 
that people confuse him with.  The show was well worth a listen and 
actually had a lot of positive energy.  Both sides need to come on 
common ground and work together against the evils of corporatism and 
globalism.  I believe that can happen.

Maybe so, but you'll be labeled a right-wing extremist
if you're not careful. There are probably lots of things 
you don't know about the Repug Alex Jones, including the 
fact that he once tried to rebuild David Koresh's church 
- he's not your kind of guy, Barry, obviously.

Rightwing extremism, the report defines in a footnote 
on Page 2, goes beyond religious and racial hate groups 
and extends to those that are mainly anti-government, 
rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local 
authority, or rejecting government authority entirely.

I listen to all sides except for the Faux folks though I watched about 
15 minutes of Glenn Beck's spiel last Friday about fascism.  His answer 
was pretty much keep the status quo which uncle Rupert would like.   
You have to understand that I am liberal minded because as a creative 
person I like freedom of speech and don't want a bunch of dumbshits 
employed by the government tell me I can't say certain things.  But then 
neither do a lot of so-called conservatives such as your buddy Alex 
Jones.   Where I differ with Alex is that I am pro-choice, believe we 
need to keep the population down (through humane means not eugenics) and 
I am not in favor of free trade at least as they seem to define it 
because I guess they think it is okay if the Chinese put lead in your 
food.  

I think the government should maintain the commons which means the 
highways, sewers, water, fire departments, police departments, etc.  
This is a gray area for them and I think really that they just don't 
want a big expensive government.   Alex has definitely spoken out 
against toll roads which I oppose too.  I don't want a big expensive 
government either and I don't also want big corporations who are just as 
dangerous and in many cases own the government.  Since some of that 
crowd consider themselves libertarians they seem to not mind big 
corporations or are blind to the problems they cause.  I also believe 
that a progressive tax is a tool not for the government to get a bunch 
of money from the wealthy but to dissuade the wealthy from accumulating 
too much wealth and hence power.  Otherwise you get a landed gentry 
who think themselves better than you or I.

I am definitely not a lock step liberal or someone who adopts the 
daily cause.  Those people are just as mush headed as the Rushbots or 
ditto heads.  I tried to get involved with a local peace group and found 
them just to be a bunch of boomers who wanted to relive the 1960's.  
They did nothing to try to get younger folks involved whose futures are 
more at stake than ours.  I walked away from them.
