Get PINKDOME Merchandise!

Catty. Chatty. And Occasionally Trashy.

Oct 26
I would have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for those damn lawyers!

Speaker Craddick, playing the role of crotchety old man, spoke at the Midland Lions Club and complained that the lawyers were after him. He also complained that there were some Republicans that "don’t vote with the rest of us." Just who that "us" is remains to be seen.

He's blaming the fact that people are after him on his tort reform legislation. He failed to mention that he's a tyrant, loathed by members on both sides of the aisle. Oh, and that he violated the rules of the House to hold on to his power and insulted the rule of law and the legislative process. OR that he did all this so blatantly that Denise had to get up and walk out.

But, you know, those are just details.

Nice to see Craddick is so nervous he's talking about this dirty laundry to the Lions Club. Everybody knows those gossipy queens have been clucking all over Midland about it.
