Lots of hyperventilating about this on the evening news - all sorts of 'how dare they!' stuff.

t is always easy to tell when an important election is coming up and the incumbents have a threat of a primary challenge.

Funny how Abbott’s list comes out within 24 hours of Col Allen West announcing he will challenge Gov. Lights Out in the primary next year.

I know it’s sad that most politicians only do what you elect them to do in the lead up to the next election.

WHY??

I will NEVER understand this

Unfortunately we’re going to have to wait 5 years for that.

_________________________________________

Abbott’s not promised my vote this time around.

I was one of those who slept in my vehicle during the freeze because my block was elected to be without utilities for several days. NOT the several hours that was promised.

Abbott: Killed a bill that would protect children from being ‘gendered,’ a bill that would give additional protection to animals being abused, and his damn ECOT (?) at at least 5 freaking folks who were paid $250,000 annually and they DIDN’T EVEN LIVE IN the wonderful state of Texas.

SO. While Abbot may be better than a dEmocrat, I plan on voting in the primary for West.

Abbott. Ignorant, arrogant Abbott. All he had to do was protect the citizens of Texas and he freaking couldn’t do that and folks died.
(Spit)

I was blessed with the purchase of a new vehicle in Jan of this year.

My heater in my old car had finally pooped and my beloved car was getting really to the point of repairs needing to be done that were more than the value of the vehicle.

I liked that vehicle. Stayed with the same manufacturer, though.

Abbott, the finger in the wind “conservative” is playing the age-old game of getting Religion leading up to his reelection attempt.
People with short-term memories will buy into it and forget about his many bad decisions. Especially, his capitulation to the Fauci/CDC edicts of the Pandemic unleashed by the Communist Chinese.
I’ll simply ask all Texans to contrast Abbott with Desantis. This comparison should be more than enough to send Abbott packing. Texas can do far better than Abbott.

****

This is one of Huffines big issues. He says there are “gender” clinics in TX which should be shut down and Abbott has done nothing about it...

Huffines also seems big on ‘Build The Wall.’

After getting burnt on Abbott will be taking very close looks at others.

We try, every time.

But, being Midge McConnell’s top henchman earns Corny Cornball lots of $$$$, from Midge’s RINO war chest, to smear any viable contenders :-(

What do you propose he do about property taxes?

No mention of state income tax, or exorbitant gas tax, either. As in other states, like California, etc.

Welcome to FR, Bozo.

Good luck finding any “decent” news stations in Central Texas as they all seem to have gone to the dark side and not worth a bucket of warm spit.

Thank God for FR.
