The Texans from their "Lege" as they so lovingly call it, who have moved to New Mexico where the government is friendly, the air has to be cleaner and there is more rationality in a pre-school class than in a room full of republicans, have now broken another quorum and thoroughly pissed off their republican counterparts. Their Chimp-0-Matic Lt. Governor David Dewhurst made this statement...
"Texas redistricting is purely and simply a Texas matter," he said. "A majority of Texans support President George W. Bush and his policies, while a majority of our Congressional delegation does not. There's no movement other than a Texas concern for fairness, that our Congressional delegation reflect the voters and the trends here in the state. We would be addressing fair redistricting whether or not Tom DeLay was in Congress."
Hey Dewhurst...here's a notion for ya, if the good people of Texas in those districts want republican representation, then let them vote for a republican. And you'll never sell the argument you are not Tom Delay's Bitch to anyone smarter than Darrell Issa.
Oh silly me, I forgot that's not in the lie, cheat and steal republican plan for a better Democracy Fascist Totalitarian State. It's only valid if blessed by a mondo republican like Delay or Rove and approved by President Select-me-or-I'll-send-Ashcroft. A sad day for democracy indeed. I hope they hold out against these petty gop thugs and governor goodhair and all his Delay-Driven Perrymandering.
