I'm seriuos about this! It's time to show the Chicken D's that Flight's Not Right!!!

Please Note: I've included Royce West even though he stayed behind in Austin. Also, I didn't check to see if the owners of some of the suggested items to boycott are Republicans. This will need to be done.

Let me hear from you!!

Boycott the Texas Senate?

That won't do any good--they are in Santa Fe and that's in New Mexico.

LOL

[PlanoMike]

Not the Senate, the commerce in the Chicken D's Districts.

[Liberal Classic]

How about the following list of things to boycott?

...

9. Mexican Food.

10. Blue Bell Ice Cream.

Now, wait just one minute...

[The Old Hoosier]

This doesn't sound like the best way to handle it. Convince the people there to vote them out instead.

[PlanoMike]

I didn't say the boycott wouldn't hurt!!

[PlanoMike]

There's now way we could unseat most of the Chicken D's given the set-up of the Districts! That's why redistricting is necessary!!

BUMP

[PlanoMike]

That's "No way......."

[The South Texan]

This has to be a joke. According to your wishes, I would have to boycott my own hometown. Could not fly anywhere because all of the planes that fly from here go to Houston Hobby or DFW. Mexican Food? Don't go there. Sorry, but most people in San Antonio probably think that Van de Putte is a nutcase so my weekend getaway in a few weeks is a go.

I live in a "Chicken D" district. My rep is a home town guy whose parents were popular here. I didn't vote for him and I have contacted his office to condemn what he is doing, but I am totally opposed to any boycott of products from our district to get back at him. Our economy here is hurting. There's got to be a better way!

[PlanoMike]

I'm seriuos, and again, I didn't say the boycott wouldn't hurt!!

As to "most people in San Antonio probably think that Van de Putte is a nutcase", they elected her, didn't they!!

As to flying, drive to DFW.

[PlanoMike]

I'm sure your call to the Chicken D's office will really help.

If there's a better way, suggest one!

[PlanoMike]

Re District 27 , it's Eddie Lucio, Jr, not Van de Putte. Sorry.

[Only1choice____Freedom]

There's got to be a better way!

There is, campaign against him. While he is out of town, join the chorus of voices condemning this act of cowardice. If you're lucky you might get on the news.

[Elkiejg]

Is recall in Texas a possibility?

[writmeister]

Royce West went to Albuquerque. It was Kent Armbrister who stayed.

I'm sure your call to the Chicken D's office will really help. If there's a better way, suggest one!

How about you run for election against one of the Chicken D's? :-)

What I didn't add in my post was that I am part of a group of women who call a group of women, who call a group of women... to all call. We are very active politically and we believe that our little hometown boy is history in the next election.

I encourage every one of you to get on the phone and call a few people and tell them what is happening. You'd be amazed at how many people are unaware that this is even going on!

Better yet, Boycott Taxes.
