Tell the Dems to go back to NM. We don't need, nor do we WANT, them here.

This needs to go to court.

If this is allowed, then Ohio better redistrict and get rid of Democrats. They have no business even being in Congress in a Republican controlled Governorship and Legislature.

The Democrats say that Mr. Dewhurst violated minorities' voting rights in late July when he chose in the redistricting flap to dispense with a Senate rule in use since the 1950s. The rule says two-thirds of the senators must agree to debate a bill before it can be heard.

As usual, the 'rats are LYING. There is a senate rule that requires a two-thirds vote to take up business out of order. a tradition, not a rule, has been to have an innocuous bill at the head of the agenda, thus requiring a two-thirds vote to get around the "blocker" bill. This tradition has been disregarded numerous times in senate history, including on the issue of redistricting.

'rats are by nature, liars.

Mr. Whitmire said a big reason he returned to Texas was worry over loss of the rule, which he said would leave Democrats with no voice on education, the state budget, health care and abortion.

Mr Whitmire, you shouldn't be too concerned as you can still count on RINO's like Bill RATliff and his ilk. There are several "closet" RINO's you can still count on.

"We're here to tell the story of recount, recall and re-redistricting, the new three R's of Republican extremism," said Mr. Shapleigh, of El Paso.

"We're here to tell the story of Distort, Delay and Deny, the new three D's of Democrat extreme liberalism," said Mr. Shapleigh, of El Paso.

"We're here to tell the story of recount, recall and re-redistricting, the new three R's of Republican extremism," said Mr. Shapleigh, of El Paso.

And they will tell that story using the three D's of Democratic extremism… deceit, demagoguery and divisiveness.

On Monday, three Texas senators visited South Florida to say Republicans have shown a "national pattern of abuse of power" by trying to scrap Democratic congressional districts and overturn elections the GOP lost.

Texas state Sens. Mario Gallegos, Eliot Shapleigh and Gonzalo Barrientos were joined by several Florida Democratic legislators, who wore small Texas flag pins.

Wish I would have known. I was in South Florida Monday Morning and could have freeped my own Runaway Rat Senator.
