I cannot imagine private jets just happening to be available for the 11 turds at just the time they decided to bolt Tejas... the D'craps planned on leaving the state for some time.

Any business that is footing the bill for the 11 should be aired out and flogged.

By the way, what kind of "real" jobs do these 11 dolts have that allows them to take vacations?

Just goes to show ya that government isn't by the people and for the people... confirmed.

Nice work. I remember you from the JimRob Luncheon in June.

It does bother me that the press continues to treat this as a big joke and tries to curry sympathy for the Democrats as if they were run out of town, instead of choosing to leave by their own choice.

I don't have sympathy that she missed her son's big announcement or that others are apart from family members and I think it's disingenuous to suggest that mean old Republicans are keeping them away from their families.

They CHOSE to do what they did. They can't even deal with that fact, much less that the stalling tactics prove they would rather dishonor their state than dishonor their party. It's shameful.

I think the senator works for her family's pharmacy. Many of the others are lawyers.
