Roger Owen, a Democrat running for Congress in CD 1, is a more embarrassing a candidate than a former male prostitute. First, have you seen his web site? My eyes! My eyes! Then, it looks like he was banned from MyDD's comments and diaries for something or other.
But then comes my favorite part. His quote before being invited to speak to the Stonewall Democrats in East Texas.
"This is East Texas. (Franklin is) hurting the party," Owen said. "I feel for the gays, but this is East Texas. It's not New York. It's not Fort Lauderdale."Owen also said in an interview that it's not his job to psycho-analyze them, adding that whoever wins the state District 7 Republican nomination between Tommy Merritt and Mark Williams is "going to spank (Franklin) dearly with that issue" (of gay rights) during the November general election.
Come back to the table when you get some balls and for God's sake take that stupid web site down...you're the embarrassment to the party.
My God, we've gone from Max Sandlin, who sat on Ways and Means, to Roger "I pose in front of painted horses" Owens. Please, please, please Supreme Court change the districts back so we have a fighing chance here in East Texas.
What's with the swimming pool pictures?
He'd better hope nobody makes improper use of apostrophes a campaign issue or he's in big trouble. Don't they teach that in 3rd grade or so?
Seriously, what's with the drawings?!?! and the "Please Allow 1 Minute To Download." I don't get it....
Eddie - for people loading the page on a 56k connection. Lot's of AOL dialup users in East Texas still.
Given the anti-gay hatred that spews forth from pinkdome on a regular basis, it's awfully hypocritcal for y'all be chastising anyone. Pinkdome are bunch of hate mongering bigots.
Roger may be correct. This is East Texas and Franklin's district voted overwhelmingly for last years marriage ammendment. The turnout in the Tyler Area will have an heavy impact on statewide candidates and an overwhelming impact on Owen and Shaw's attempt to unseat Louis Gohmert.. Patrick Franklin has no real chance to gain a seat in heavily homophobic East Texas and his presence will harm every other Democrat on the ballot because Patrick is making his sexual orientation the issue and that will drive the wingnuts to the balot.
Vicki Black, you are an idiot and ill-informed cunt.
Vicki, are you serious? Or being facetious? Cuz I can't tell.
That picture just screams gay.
and vickie you have a stinky nu nu.
Ah my my - Pinkdome has an amazing ability to attract all the professional haters - you see, water seeks its own level. it's only on pinkdome that one can actually be called the "c" word. And of course it's been posted anonymously becuase haters always do.
And only two or three days ago, the authors of pinkdome let the world know just how much they hated ("I hate, hate, hate them") democrats in San Antonio and Dallas.
Pinkdome is all about hate, pomposity and bigotry masquerading as a progressive blog.
And yes, bluebonnet, pinkdome is homophobic. How many times does pinkdome have to spew out their vicious attacks against every Stonewall Democratic club in the state before you wake up and get it?
Shut up, Cunt.
:-)
Pinkdome homophobic. Weird, so all that coming out of the closet was for nothing? All those gay prides I volunteer for was for nothing? All that advocating opposition to HJR6 was for nothing?
See, Vicki, you've entered a world where if I oppose something that some other gay does I'm homophobic. Not true. Asking me to be lock-step with you is the true bigotry.
As far as the cunt remark, if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it's probably a cunt as far as I can tell.
...so, criticizing the Stonewall Democrats makes you homophobic? This Vicki chick is a hoot. And a loon...
Now, as far as Roger is concerned, anyone wanting to pose in front of a statue of a horse THAT gay, and promises to "spank" his opponent "dearly" gets my vote for The Last One to Know concerning his own proclivities.
jimmycity - AMEN.
As I've said elsewhere pinkdome, you're a parasitic poseur.
And wonk - back at'cha' chickenshit!
Vicki: water seeks its own level
Vicki: back at'cha' chickenshit!
welcome to the mudhouse, sweet cheeks.
Damn. PD, did you notice the amateur editing job on the horse cock? Your eyes were probably blurry, tearing, and half shut, but if you wait for it to clear, you can see that he taped something over the big horse cock before scanning the picture.
Heh. Big. Horse. Cock.
Anyway. Where was I? Oh - yeah. He's also A Proud Southern Democrat.
And I thought all the Dixiecrats were dead, or Republicans. Someone let him know the 50s are so over, and give him Trent Lott's number.
Holy shit, j, nice find! How did I miss that?
This guy's platform:
Pro Swimming Pools,
Anti Big Horse Cock's
[Excessive Caps and apostrophe usage in homage to Rog "the Dodge" Owen].
What abusive language here. Do you really think anyone is going to take you seriously with such foul language? Respectable and serious politial advocates will move on ...and fast!
Ya'll need to get some phycotherapy to deal with your anger. Further, ya'll need to listen to what others are saying to you and act on it! You don't see yourself accurately.
Good grief.
Worst website, ever. I'm moving to his would-be district to vote against him.
Fuck fuck fuck fuck ass ass ass ass shit shit shit shit.
Fine Bottled Water, our PhD in communications folks. Give him a hand!
Is that fine lady still here? I want to learn more about "phycotherapy." Also, I needed someone to cook me a meatloaf.
^LMAO!
I take a nap and all kinds of hell break loose. PD, dropping c-bombs like it was the 4th of July and someone calling him homophobic?
I'm pretty sure serious political advocates aren't going anywhere; not if they want to know what the hell is going on anyway. Traffic speaks for itself.
For the record, I live in TX-01.
I know both Roger Owen and Patrick Franklin and I know the situation well.
Roger is not a good candidate, to say the least. He has a primary opponent in Duane Shaw from Lufkin. Shaw is by far the better candidate. Roger's speeches are quite unfocused, and he has a reputation as a loose cannon.
Roger had already criticized Patrick privately (to his face) about his decision to run because he was gay. Roger's actions had already drawn the ire of local Democrats. Then, as shown here, he told the Longview News-Journal the same thing, which took that ire to a new level.
Patrick is a good candidate, certainly a far better candidate than Roger.
Patrick has an uphill battle because this is a very conservative, Republican district.
But at least he's running. The incumbent, Tommy Merritt, has not even faced a Democratic opponent in his previous 4 elections.
So even if Roger was right, AND HE'S NOT, it would still beat no candidate.
Walter Ludwig had a presentation at DemFest last year about "Project 90" (don't look for it. Like the Electric Banana, it's not there anymore). The premise was 90% of life is just showing up, and that no congressional district should go unchallenged. (Like 10 was last time around).
I don't know where I was going with that. Oh. I can't believe Merritt hasn't had a Democratic opponent 8 years. That's bullshit. Where is the Texas Democratic Party? They should be recruiting!
They should be recruiting, but they are not, which is unfortunate.
Kudos to Patrick -- this is a very tough race, and he's taken it head on.

Maybe his 13 year old daughter made the website? It is missing a few LOLs and OMGs, though.
He's really pushing the fact that he's a swimming pool builder. Or as he puts it, "Swimming Pool Builder."
