Hutchinson lawmaker admits he's a "Marxist"
The Kansas Senate's next majority leader says he's an avid Marxist.
But Hutchinson Republican Terry Bruce means he's a follower of Groucho, not Karl.
Bruce is a fan of the Marx Brothers, and the decor of his new office at the Statehouse hints at his affinity for their classic comedy films from the 1930s.
He's displaying a photo of Groucho and two of his brothers, as well as a small poster for their film "Animal Crackers.'' They're near a photo of President and famed Kansan Dwight Eisenhower.
But there may be some internal dissension over Bruce's choice of comedy icons. Chief of staff Peter Northcott is a big fan of the Three Stooges and has two metal signs honoring them in his office.
