It's finally fall (did I speak too soon?), but the world is still crazy. Donald Trump for Speaker? Depose Dade Phelan? Can't we all just get along? ALSO: some good books to read.
Deece, you’re on target in your description of two items in this post. First, your characterization of District 22. If there were ever a candidate tor Chair of the Batshit Caucus in the US House, it’s the inhabitant of that particular House seat.
Second, the irony of your characterization of the current contrast between the politics of the Texas House and the Texas Senate is so thick you’d need a blow torch to cut through it. I remember a time when the Texas House was the political backwater that housed the political pariahs and loons, and the Texas Senste was the Chamber that housed the political giants in Texas, with names like Lloyd Doggett, Oscar Mauzy, and Babe Schwartz. These were people who did more than represent their Senate districts. They took on the large problems that faced Texas and passed legislation that made life tangibly better for all Texans.
Sadly, the State Senate today is unrecognizable from those days. Now, the Texas House is our only hope for protecting us from the nonsense that emanates from the Governor’s and Lt. Governor’s Offices.
We’re really through the Looking Glass now, aren’t we?
Thank you for refraining from trash talk especially not bringing up last year 😱 here’s a question, would win in a competition for worst state government? Now that’s a contest...
As always DC you said a mouth full. I can hear the words of my late daddy when I regard the 2/3 rule "It worked so well we quit doin' it." "Poor George. He was born with a silver foot in his mouth." Who will ever forget that one. Yeah 'ol George. He was bout as good with an oil well as he was with a baseball team. Or a shot gun. Poor Dick Cheney.
Usually fall Don't, em fall until after Halloween. But I'll take this lovely break to toss open the windows at night and f the lektrick co.
