The Texas Lege passed a resolution today “commending President Barack Obama, intelligence personnel and members of the military for taking out Osama bin Laden.”

Ten House Republicans voted totally against it.  Fifty two of them just couldn’t resist the urge to blast President Obama.

But 10 of the 101 Republican members of the House are recorded in the House Journal as voting against the resolution. And 52 who supported the resolution entered a joint Journal statement saying they do not support Obama’s overall foreign policy.

Out of the entire and total Republican delegation of the Texas House, only one of them stood like an American today —

“George Bush was our Commander-in-Chief when the terrible 9/11 happened,” said Rep. Jim Keffer, R-Eastland. “And Democrats and Republicans stood shoulder to shoulder at that terrible day. And now that we have this victory, let’s say, that Osama bin Laden has been found and eliminated, that as Commander-in-Chief, Republican and Democrat should stand shoulder to shoulder in the celebration and the remembrance on today.”

Thank you, Jim Keffer for being the only damn Republican in the entire 101 supermajority of the Texas House who isn’t foaming at the mouth.

“So what this means,” Juanita commented, “is that one out of 100 Republicans is not whacked out.  At least that’s an improvement from last year.”

The ten who would rather disgrace the United States military than say anything positive about The Commander in Chief  is a familiar list.

The 10 members who voted against the resolution were Leo Berman of Tyler, Marva Beck of Centerville, Allen Fletcher of Tomball, Dan Flynn of Van, Will Hartnett of Dallas, Dan Huberty of Houston, George Lavender of Texarkana, Barbara Nash of Arlington, Debbie Riddle of Tomball and Randy Weber of Pearland.

“The upside is that we now have a neat little list of the insane people serving in the Texas House of Representatives,” Juanita looks on the bright side.

Thanks to about 10 people who sent me this.
