Governor Rick Perry has called a third special legislative session that is set to begin Monday. That's what his spokeswoman said Tuesday.
The decision follows two special sessions on congressional redistricting during the summer. Neither produced a new redistricting plan as Democrats in the Texas Senate blocked a floor vote on a proposal.
Perry spokeswoman Kathy Walt didn't immediately offer details about the third session, but says the governor's proclamation would be issued shortly.
... And I think the Pubbies ought to preface every answer to every newsoid question about redistricting in Texas with the words, "Well, as you know, California and Georgia are badly and very unfairly gerrymandered against Republicans by the 'Rats......."How's them apples?
Sounds good to me. Just one problem. If prominent GOP folks said that, it probably wouldn't be printed/seen in the lamestream media dontcha-know ?? ...
No wonder the Dallas Morning Spew is trying to egg Kay Bailey into running against Perry in the next election.Perry's their worst nightmare - a Republican with guts!
Yep !! Thank YOU, RICK PERRY and David Dewhurst !!! ...
I can't remember the names of all my reps but I did checked recently and they are all GOP, thank goodness.
LOL !
Place your bets ... Arkansas or Louisiana this time?N.O.T.A (none of the above). It's gonna happen this time !! :O)
I'll repost my #65 and #91 ...
MORE than half of the Texans don't agree with their running away. They now have to come back and do what they were hired to do: Legislation. NOW, they will have to face their running [away] as an issue in the next election, AND under a newly redistricted state ...
I love it when a plan comes together ! ...
********
I think 3rd's a charm. The 'RATS are gonna hafta take their medicine this time ...
I think this is what they were hoping would happen, play the RACE card as often as they needed. I saw a comment by Senator Barientos about not watcing the public opinion polls. That turned out to be BS. When they saw that over 65% of the public said they thought the RATs were wrong, the little "partying vacation" in NM seemed to break up.
