Jun 2013

however,the good ol' boy network is alive and well in Tejas.
Does any body remember a douchenipple named Tom Delay?
You know,ex-exterminator?
Sued his cousin over a private cable car accident?
Shipped in his office staffers to terrorize the vote recount in Florida in 2000?
Gerrymandered liberal districts in the cities of Texas?
Struck a pay for play deal with the Choctaw Nation to use legislation to ban online gambling?
Recruited Congress critters to fly to the Marianas Islands to showcase clothing sweatshops to demonstrate Neo-Con principles on the taxpayer nickel?
Partner in crime with Jack Abramoff who is doing time?
Ring any bells?
So how much prison time with this rap sheet do you suppose he has done?

Oh never mind,i forget,we as good progressives are supposed to look forward and not back.
Forgery of a government doc? That is small time stuff.
Arrest that guy with a marijuana stem in his pocket though,there is the real criminal.
