Dear Governor Perry,

You owe an apology to the people of Texas. Your ignorant and hateful remark about gays is beyond the pale from a “leader” of what you tout as one of the greatest states in the Union. To dismiss the thousands of Texas gay couples living loving and productive lives as partners and parents as [...]

I think a prayer is in order…

The Texas SOS predicts a record voter turnout on Tuesday. Early voting has already broken records. The prediction is that 3.3 million voters will cast a ballot, that’s 26% of the 12.75 million registered voters.
Part of me thinks it is pathetic that only 26% would bother to vote and then I remember what the voters [...]

Love in an elevator

It has been WAY too long since we’ve had any good craigslist action come from the Capitol. So, let’s settle for this missed connection. (Click permalink in case it gets deleted)

Unsubscribe!

Lord have mercy are the Obama people proud they know how to use email. This is just a small sample of what my inbox looks like.

The Morning After

I cannot believe I went to the debate last night in a four car SUV motorcade. As a political nerd, this event was better than any concert I’ve ever been to. Admittedly, any event is amazing if you start off with drinks at the Four Seasons, though.
My last time being this close to the action [...]
