Excellent, Excellent, EXCELLENT article on a subject that OUGHT to have been covered--but wasn't--by George Will.

Wish someone could get this in front of Rush Limbaugh, and have him read it, or at least outline it in one of his monologues. This is red meat for the troops as we gird our loins for the next election cycle.

I see Congrats are in order. And your right 100% right! (Not bad for a country lawyer who lives half a mile from the nearest paved road )

Why are the state legislators important?

The redistricting that follows the census every ten years is very serious business.

This is a very good article.
I have always enjoyed reading comments from the (more or less) Honorable One.

About the Author: Congressman Billybob is fictitious, but prolific, on the Internet...

LIES!! Dang it, y'r Excellency, this here Armor feller is hornin' in on yore action, callin' you "fictitious." I ain't sure what that means exactly but I think it's one o' them back-East sexual thangs like Clinton did with that girl looked jest like Lonnie Jean over in the trailer park. Me 'n' Festus gonna git us a little trawlin' line from his bass boat 'n' have us and this here "Armor" feller a little necktie party, betcher socks...

I cut my eye teeth on FreeRepublic, debating and analyzing issues with sharp people who know their facts. I would not have gotten this column assignment without the skills I have necessarily learned, here on FreeRepublic.

So FReeping is not "slumning" to me. It is a combination of doing my homework, having fun, and slamming the enemy who have it coming, "Big time." It doesn't get any better than that.

UPI made me say that. I know Billybob ain't fictitious. You know Billybob ain't fictitious. But UPI wanted a birth certificate, drivers license, or some such. I couldn't get them to understand that two people can get on perfectly well in one body, as long as they both like the same brand of Scotch.

Billybob (er, John, if'n y'all prefer)

Thang Q, ma friend.

And ta alla t'others what made kind comments, I offers these two lines from A.A. Milne:

"Bad King John stood dumbly there,
Blushing beneath his crown."
