Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
How many does this make it? Is anybody keeping count?
1If ya can’t stand the heat….
2…get outa Paul Ryan’s butt!
3Happy trails Bob Goodlatte of Virginia’s 6. We’ll leave a light on for you.
4Haven’t kept up with the count, but it’s a darn good start. We need 248 snacilbupeR gone from the House and 54 gone from the Senate. The sooner the better. Resignation is not as tasty as a straight up defeat at the polls or felony indictments, but I’ll accept their demise any way I get it.
Oh and 34 governors need to turn over as well; resignation, recall, defeat at the polls, or straight up criminal indictments. Whatever it takes.
5What Micr said.
6This is a lot more important than your average retirement, like the Smiths and Poes. Goodlatte is the Chair of the Committee that would be the one to bring out impeachment charges — against Trump, Sessions, or whoever. The assumption from the Virginians I’ve read is that he could pull a Howard Smith, put the bill in his pocket and disappear for a month’s fishing. It is less likely that a replacement would have the seniority, strength or reputation that would enable his to do the same.
7Karma is SO sweet early in the morning.
8Looks like Roy Moore is warming up to be next.
9Bible thumping, twice kicked of the Alabama soopreme court, sinate candidate is an alleged pervert with a hankering for underage girls. 4 accusations so far.
Breitbart already making excuses for him.
10This is a bit weird. Goodlatte’s district went 2:1 for Gillespe, so he’s not at much risk. And it couldn’t be due to any ethical or moral qualms, because he doesn’t have any
11You may have noticed that a lot of the Rethug House retirees–including Goodlatte–are chairmen of important committees and, thanks to the idiocy of Rethug party (Hi, Newtie!), they are being term-limited out of their chairmanships. The Dems have no such term limits.
I wonder when (if?) the dumb ones will realize what an absolutely terrible idea term limits is.
12Operatico Politico has posted a new video.

If you haven’t seen their earlier work, it burns the R’s with some great parody/satire.
The link above is to Freddie Mercury’s (Queen) “Bohemian Rhapsody”
13He was my Congress critter when I lived in Roanoke, so I think 13 terms. Though when he first ran in the 90s, he campaigned on term limits and promised to leave after three terms. Got to Washington and decided he was wrong about term limits. That kind of guy.
14My ‘take’ is that a lot of republicans are retiring because they know in their shriveled little hearts that they support the more liberal positions, but are too chicken to actually vote that way. But my favorite is the 13 term Marshall, of the Virginia state legislature, he of the transvaginal wand and opponent of LGBTQ rights was defeated by an openly trans woman who never ran for office before. Richmond will be richer for it.
