Roland Sledge is running for Railroad Commissioner in Texas, a job that has absolutely nothing to do with railroads, but the guy is headed for Hollywood.  No doubt about it.

Yep, this is the guy who wants to regulate the oil and gas bidness in Texas.

Thanks to Johnny for the heads up.

A while back I informed you about former Houston City Councilman and rightwing radio talk spewer and raging homophobe Michael Berry.

Michael Berry got himself arrested last January for hit-and-run outside of a Houston gay bar at 11:00 pm on drag queen night.  They have video of Berry in the bar.  His car and he himself were positively identified by the victim, who had about $1,500 damage to his car.

Well, Berry hired himself Houston’s most fancy pants lawyer, who “arranged a $2,330 payment to Bennett [the victim] for damages to the car and the cost of obtaining a rental car.”

And now the victim cannot be located so charges are being dropped.

It is unknown whether Berry now takes a cab to drag queen night.

You can visit the Michael Berry website if you want to upset your stomach.

Once again proving my theory that in most Republican households outrage passes for foreplay, all the Republican men, hoping to get lucky last night, appeared on the electric teevee just outraged that President Barack Obama made a speech yesterday commemorating the death of Osama bin Laden.

They said the President was using an event accomplished by “all Americans.”   Hey, Rush, where was your flabby patootie that day?  And Mitt, you said you wouldn’t do what President Obama did.  And Sean Hannity — you are as worthless as a four card flush.

And some very clever person at Daily Kos made this picture:

Now, I want to ask you a question.  What if the mission to kill bin Laden had been a failure.  Do you think for a New York minute that the Republican boys would help shoulder the blame?  Hell, no.  The outrage on that event alone would have doubled the Republican population in America.

Here’s what I’m gonna do.  I’m gonna print out this picture and hand it to any Republican who wants to play this silly game.

Good Lord, the man has an ego erection because he flew in the damn backseat of an airplane.   And they weren’t even embarrassed by it.

Outrage Mission Accomplished, Republican Boys.

Remember that damfool judge who made United States Attorney General Eric Holder write a three page letter explaining if the Justice Department believed the Supreme Court had the right to overrule unconstitutional law?

He’s baaaaaaack.

And he’s hating on Texas women.

By granting a stay of the lower court’s injunction this morning, he ruled that the State of Texas can continue to exclude Planned Parenthood from providing women’s health care. Even though the lower court judge was appointed by George W Bush, apparently his Republican credentials didn’t stop Judge Crazypants Jerry Smith from keeping Texas women from getting preventative health care.

Dude, you have really got to hate women to pull a stunt like that.

Smith has ordered Planned Parenthood to respond by 5:00 today. I haven’t heard if he has set a length, type font, and page size for the brief.

Jerk. Complete jerk. Total.

I’m on my way to Texas today.  Y’all leave the key to the backdoor under the matt, ya hear?

Home, Sweet Home
