Rep. Dave Brat - Virginia's finest smoked ham

Apparently, from across our border with Syria, 2,000 ISIS have set up a camp in Texas.

I wanted to comment further - but this renders me speechless.

Can someone please try to explain Texas to me?

We have a bystander with a cell phone proving that the South Carolina PD versions of a murder were all wrong. (Kudos to SC - their reactions, actions, and public statements kept that state peaceful and relatively safe. See generally, Ferguson and the Grand Police Presence)

So Texas responds how? By wanting to ban and to make illegal photos and video of cops in action?

What am I missing about that state? And the kind of people who would think along those lines?

Chuy, Chuy, Chuy.

What have thou donest to thine fine opportunity?

You had it in your grasp, the mayorship, I mean. People actively disliked and mistrusted Rahm, but your "not ready for prime time" campaign and lack of any details reminded me of how Hilary is ducking the hard issues yet again. You were our best hope to fix what Rahm is breaking, with his corporate weasels and his close Wall street fiends. But when you came up to bat, rather than take a big swing, you thought about a bunt, while the pitches were zipping by.

Between Rahm and Rauner, I don't think we will recognize this state in the very near future.

I know you were short on time, short of money, and slightly ham-strung in getting campaign aides and advisors together. But, the very attractiveness (initially) of your campaign has turned into rust, even though I still believe you would be a decent mayor.
