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.

Listen to the crybabies whine.

For decades, dems have thrown bi-partisan out the window re redistricting, gerrymandering the GOP to the thinnest margins possible. Now that the GOP has the power to dish out a bit of what Dems have forced upon them, listen to the crybaby, spoiled brats' demogoguery!

Sock it to 'em Dewhurst. The nation will love you for it.

"...the Senate's treasured two-thirds rule..."

So now it's a "treasured" rule?

Reality never did mean much to the Austin "American" Statesman, did it?

"I don't think you'll have a quorum — and I would lead 'em," Armbrister said

They will dig up Jimmy Hoffa before Texas Republicans let them get away with this.

And so Ratliff, considered the conscience of the Senate, held his own news conference.

Anytime the press calls someone the conscience of I have to howl with laughter. It's like saying "The conscience of O.J. Simpson." What is shows is that the person in question is a complete @sshole.

One response to this editorial- (LOL!). This desperate, if not outright pathetic, attempt by the Austin-American to influence a Republican state leader shows the perils that a paper faces when it shreds its credibility well in advance of pivotal decisions. The AAS is already acknowledged as a leftist rag after editorial after editorial of breathlessly advocating liberal positions and castigating Republicans. Now who is left to listen to their laughable liberal rants? Only liberals. They are changing no minds.
