Here’s the story about Cathie Adams:

So, what was it about Adams that the Republican cowards in Texas had a problem with?
(Maybe I’ll post a separate thread on this, if there’s not one already..)

Good. One way to keep control of the legislature, elected offices, and the governors mansion should be to promote and enact conservative policies, regardless.

Too often, it seems, all the Republicans get together and go for a moderate tone, since it is what the top dog wants. The name of the game is keeping the rats and their socialist allies out of office.

Sounds good to me. There’s a lot of work for Texas to do in the coming session. A lot.

Perry has said the Arizona law, if adopted in Texas, would unduly burden police.

What a RINO. As if all the freaking illegals in Texas aren't ALREADY putting a burden on police. Asking someone for identification is a burden? Puh-lease

How much of a "burden" would be lifted if we got a large percentage of the 1.5 million illegals that are in Texas, out of Texas?

The Third Party is not the way to go. Much better to repurpose the GOP.

I was there to the end.... basically Adams was practically dead even w/ munisteri out of the senate caucuses, then the third guy mechler, withdrew and threw his weight behind / and asked his folks to vote for munesteri.

pretty interesting day ,kinda discouraging, get the feeling that true conservatives/christians are just barely tolerated..big $$ is being sought, although there is a strong, almost unanimous no amnesty whatsoever concensus at state level.... the acting chair...don't know who she was, not Adams.. was not the best at keeping ball rolling ...
it was rather haphazard and a bit out of control at times

but.. we have a LOT of solid conservative officials and candidates State wide

Tell that to people who are getting their vehicles stolen (by ILLEGAL Mexicans) for car parts. They sell them to certain body shops who are in on the crimes.

We had a vehicle stolen and it took Dallas police four hours to take a report. They were 'too busy'. It was found two weeks later on the side of the highway. They tried to charge us with abandoning a vehicle (even though they had a police report).

Time get tuff and people get angry and serious about a continuing Mexican invasion when the economy stinks and the jobs are gone for illegal aliens and for citizens and for legal immigrants. Somethings gotta give and it must be the illegals. Get the ____ out!

Our Gov is playing it safe on immigration for political reasons. (lots of businesses in this state use illegals and he ddoesn’t want to pis them or the Hispanic voters off)

I say bring on the AZ law!! Screw these cheap bastard business owners and Hispanics who don’t like it!

If the Leg. puts an anti-illegal immigration bill on his desk and he vetos it, he’s a gonner.

Rick Perry won’t be governor after the next election. He will be running against Kay Baily and her record in D.C. is pristine conservative.

I don’t think that woman will have problem one with passing an Arizona type law.
