Will do, bro... ;) I am sitting here working furiously and fumiously on a journal article that we are supposed to get out the door by Tuesday...

Dumbass me goes and spends FOUR OR FIVE HOURS on the frickin' Free Republic yesterday afternoon and I am scrambling NOW, lemme tell ya... Bwahaha... Durn FR, being so seductive and addictive and whatnot...

Add that to the fact that I am supposed to swing by the running club party in about an hour, being an age-group award winner, and my sh!t is up the creek. Or something like that. ;)

It don't matter, I'll drag my drunk a$$ in after the nerd-fest and work overnight if I have to...

MAX THE DEDICATED

But I am gonna get TRASHED AT SOME POINT TONIGHT. Yeedoggies! Edna bar the door!

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

That's exactly where I cut & pasted from. I keep a copy handy in my most precious documents folder.    =;^)

Whoo-Whee, Deputy Dawg ! Sounds like yer busier than a one-legged man in a Butt-kickin' Contest !

[MeekOneGOP]

Oh. LOL !

I don't think it is a simple mistake by the press to omit the info that Dixiecrat party had its roots in the Democrat party. I am terribly offended at being labeled a racist because I am Republican. I don't know any racist republican but I do know some racist Democrats. They even returned Chirstmas presents because they did not want friends to see African American art/collectables in their home and complain about how bad the neighborhood has gone down because a couple of affluent blacks bought homes in their area. How is that for caring liberals who would defend Clinton/Gore with their life and love Babs. Blacks had better wake up to the fact that Democrats are using them.

That's what I heard Johnson said ..

[maxwell]

Hell yeah, bro... I got to think of some horse doover to bring too-- chips and salsa. Whaddya think? ;)

Okay I've been cranking since eight this morning, got all the figures done except the last one, all I gotta do is slap together something for a schematicoftheproposedmechanismforcollisionallyinducedsecondaryemission and start the cleaning beam up, and I'll call it a day...

We REALLY have to knock down this "code word" sh*t. This is something that has been used to great effect against Republicans for the past three decades. It's been a way for the Democrats and their Presstitutes to slander GOP candidates as racists no matter what they say.

It's like this: a Republican says "We must give the police the tools to combat crime"; the Press immediately assert that those were "code words" for "Combat black people." A Republican says, even in a heavily black neigborhoods "We must have local control ..." and it's code word for "segregation" ..., etc.

We have to slap them around about this ...

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

TY for the link. What a bunch of turkeys. FReegards....

I just about hurled when I read that thing in the paper this morning. The funny part is its author, who is a retired Houston Chronicle editor! Sadly the ones that are still there are almost all just like this guy and probably agree with his every word. They've already published two staff editorials and who knows how many opinion columns, including today's two by this guy and Cragg "I hate catholics and Tom DeLay" Hines, about how horrible Lott is. I don't recall any similar staff editorial when Robert Byrd had his flap last year, and the only opinion piece they had on it was the Michelle Malkin column picked up on syndication.

Conservatives complain (and rightly so) about the far left wing biases of the New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, San Fransisco Chronicle and the sort. Here in Texas similar complaints go against the Austin American-Statesman. These are all valid criticisms, but in each and every one of those cases the leftist democrat newspaper at least serves a city that is itself a leftist democrat hotbed.

Houston is not like that and is probably the most conservative big city in the nation. Sure, our mayor is a Democrat piece of trash but everything else - city council, Harris County, the local state legislature delegation - is all conservative. None of that can be said for LA, or DC, or NYC, or Austin, or even Dallas proper excluding the suburb cities in neighboring counties. Yet Houston's only daily newspaper is an ULTRA leftist pro-Democrat biased bilge spewing publication with liberal tendencies comparable to the worst of the worst northeast coast papers. I honestly do not think there is a big city newspaper in America that is more out of touch with its readers and the local population.

Wow, that's interesting. This was back in the days when elections were actually run per the Constitution and people correctly voted for presidential electors and not the actual candidate. We need to return to this method - results in a more educated electorate! Thanks for the post!

It's still the way it is. Next time there's a presidential election read the ballot--closely.

[Dog Gone]

I honestly do not think there is a big city newspaper in America that is more out of touch with its readers and the local population.

I would agree. This is a newspaper with a liberal agenda, and it pushes it forcefully. They claim that they are impartial, which only shows how out of touch they are.

I didn't realize that "states rights," and "special interests" were secret code to appeal to racists. I think we are witnessing a coordinated effort by the Vast Left Wing Conspiracy to label and sterotype virtually every aspect of western civilization and the English dictionary as racist.

Seriously "special interests" is a code word for lobby groups that range in viewpoint from the NRA to NAMBLA. "State Rights" is a Constitutional concept of the supremacy clause and is applied to laws as diverse as abortion laws and unfunded mandates in federal laws and regulations.

IMO the Democraps are up to their old tricks of race baiting, and it is a calculated gamble that could backfire. It is classic Clinton tactics to try to stir up the blacks such as in the alleged black church burnings of the early 1990's. Democraps fear losing the black vote since George Bush won over 30% of the black vote in Texas.

[mafree]

I believe it was Mafree who said on another thread that perhaps it's time for a discussion of states rights vs. the Federal government, without the baggage of slavery and segregation - and I agree that there should be such a discussion, but I'm not sure it could be done with all the emotional baggage the term "states' rights" now conveys.

Yes, I did say that and it'd be nice if Lott started to give a simple explanation of this when he appears on BET tomorrow.

[Amelia]

What time is he supposed to be on BET? Do you think he's smart enough for a simple explanation?

[deport]

You gonna watch.... lol

Part of the answer is that Republicans have been too hard to pin down. They have played a two-faced strategy exceedingly well.

I guess we need to read these types of articles. They fall under the category of "Know your enemy."
