We, in Texas, suffered from 100 years of pure ‘yellerdog” dem rule which gave us many non-conservative laws.

I know Iowa and I know Texas, Texas is a hellofalot more conservative, now.

The thing both the bike gangs and their FR sympathizers failed to understand it that Texans take very seriously the “Don’t Mess With Texas” thing. You want to come here and show your ass, be prepared to get more than the one hour tour of Texas Department of Corrections.

Yep, have to agree with that. It’s gradually being sorted out but there are a lot of ‘good ol’ boy’ networks in place that have been codified in local and county laws.

Iowa has NEVER been anything CLOSE to “conservative”. Too much time in the “sack” w/ the BIG “Agri-Business” “Interests”. ALL Iowa Politicians(Local, State and Federal) are and have been bought and paid for by BIG Corporations(Ethanol etc).

Then why is the state over-run with illegal aliens? BTW, that was the state's litter campaign slogan.
