During the debate, Democrats invoked Nazi Germany, South Africa's former apartheid system, Liberia's civil war and Mexican general Santa Anna as they strained to underscore how deeply they oppose the plan.

They would. The comparisons are utterly rediculous, however. Apparently there is no shame in Austin for the Democrats.

Hey, Ruthie, like the song says "Here's a quarter, call someone who cares"! Those sock puppets have got to be the height of childishness-what's next, thumb sucking? I'm ashamed to have people like that living in the same state as I do!

For 130 years the rats ran it right down the throats of the Republicans.

Screw them

I know The Honorable Ralph Hall #5 District personally. Ralph is right at 80 years old, and ready to hang it up.

Meanwhile, Ratcliff is starting to sound like a rino.

Ralph Hall is a Dino, I guess, based on his voting record per the ACU.
He's more of a Republican than most Republicans, I think.

Ralph Hall is a remarkable guy. Almost 80 and totally dedicated. His voting record suits me.

His son Brett is a District Judge and a Republican, but nobody better tangle with Pete Sessions who is also a remarkable guy.

Conversion from AT&T to Comcast messed up the URL. I replaced it and here is that pic !

As King began his argument for the new congressional boundaries Monday afternoon, about 30 Democrats in the gallery donned white socks as hand puppets to mock King. Every time he spoke, the little white mouths flapped.

Oh, not the Comcast conversion.

That service is notorious for killing pics in a short period of time. That is why I uploaded it . . .
