Better take a look at your license plate. If you’ve got a thingy around it from the dealer or something clever you bought at a truckstop it’s got to come off. Texas police will now be able to pull you over and maybe take you to jail if you don’t.
It’s a clever way to give [...]

$5 To See Boobs

Fortunately, it’s still free to watch state representatives introduce legislation. Senator West and Representative Cohen have introduced legislation charging $5 cover for strip joints and the money going to sexual assault programs and indigent health care.
Who estimated that the cover would raise $12 million? That’s 2.4 million men visiting strip joints in Texas every year. [...]

What’s worse than a flasher?

A 75 year old flasher. A former congressman from Pennsylvania was accused of exposing his ’sexual organs’ to two women. How come when we get flashed it’s by the last person we have any desire to see naked? If you’re going to flash someone, could you please be hot?

So you CAN buy you way into Heaven

A pastor of one of those mega churches is being investigated by the I.R.S. because of his extravagance. The 10,000 member church took in $34 million and the pastor is laughing all the way to the bank. According to the pastor, “It takes wealth, folks, to establish God’s covenant on this Earth. You and I [...]

Look at me! I’m spam free!

So joyous that our new ‘challenge phrase’ thingy is working so far and we haven’t seen one sp*m comment make it through from the junk folder.

Hillary Can’t Sing

Obviously, we love some YouTube around here. Especially when we can find gems like Hillary Clinton’s microphone accidentally picking up her off key singing of the national anthem in Iowa. The video is great because a.) who knew the bitch knew the words? She hates America so much you’d never think she would sing along [...]

More on the HPV vaccination thing

Surely Merck’s large donations to Texas PACs, Perry, Combs, lobbyists, etc. had nothing to do with Perry’s wanting our sixth grade girls to get $350 vaccines. Surely not.
Texans for Public Justice has an insightful look at who exactly was on Merck’s payroll donation list in their quest to get a statewide required HPV vaccination [...]

Senator v. TXDOT

This is what we love.

Senate Transportation Committee Chairman John Carona paid an unusual visit to a meeting of the House Transportation Committee, where highway commission Chairman Ric Williamson was testifying about road projects around the state.
If you can’t watch the video this pretty much sums it up: “Can I get an appointment? Can I expect [...]

From the Dome

I’m wandering around the Capitol and here are a few thoughts from the rotunda.
I have a lot to say about what is going on on the Senate side of the building today, but I will holdd my tongue.
Also, where did Dan Patrick get a million dollars?
Why has no one sent me Warren Chisum’s dumbass letter [...]

Astronuttier Than Squirrel Shit

We haven’t really commented on the Lisa Nowak-astronaut-love-triangle-diaper thing. Not because there’s a shortage of potential humor in that situation, but because we really, really hate astronauts that crap their pants.
However, in honor of Valentine’s Day, we’ll bend the rules and let the sweet sounds of Mr. Big tell Lisa’s story:
