He’s 77 years old and has been been married 5 times so he’s perfectly qualified, not even counting that whole Al Capone’s safe thing.
Alright, alright, alright. Matthew McConaughey is seriously considering running for governor of Texas. His life motto: “Just Keep Living” certainly offers deep philosophical guidelines for us all. Aside from starting a sentence in Dallas and finishing it somewhere on Venus, he is certainly easy on the eyes and can find most major cities in Texas on a map.
However, you gotta look favorably on any person who got arrested for playing the bongo drums barefoot all over and toasted in the picture window of his house. And yes, it did draw a crowd.
Now, if Willie Nelson runs, he’s got my vote.
In 2006, Kinky Friedman ran for Governor of Texas as an Independent, which caused Little Bubba to approach him in public, hand him a Democratic lapel button and ask into a microphone to a crowd, “So the party of Franklin Roosevelt and John Kennedy isn’t good enough for you?” Kinky took his cigar out of his mouth long enough to smile and say, “smartass.” He got 12% of the vote.
It’s just like Speaker Pelosi said, “They say no and then take the dough.”
His excuse?
“I’m not going to vote for $1.9 trillion just because it has a couple of good provisions.”
Hey, Skippy, that’s what governing means. You get nothing 100% your way. I know for a dead solid guaranteed actual damn fact that some Democrats voted for the Trump relief plan while not liking 100% of it.
There’s a saying in Texas that the only reason Texas doesn’t slide into the Gulf of Mexico is because Oklahoma sucks. Republican State Representative Brad Boles of Oklahoma ain’t helping much.
He’s all worked up over an abortion bill and he forgot to use his Republican outside voice.
Thanks to Keith for the heads up and his comment, “It is almost as if this chucklehead is auditioning to be a member of the British royal family.”
Lindsey Graham admitted that Trump has a dark side, but Graham says he stays around Trump to try to “harness the magic” that makes Trump able to succeed where others like John McCain and Mitt Romney have failed.
“The magic is racism.”
— Democratic pollster Cornell Belcher, in an interview on MSNBC
Because Republicans in the Texas State House are 100% pro-life, they have come up with a solution for women who have an abortion – kill her.
A Texas lawmaker has filed a bill that would abolish and criminalize abortions, leaving women and physicians who perform the procedure to face criminal charges that could carry the death penalty.
The legislation, filed Tuesday by state Rep. Bryan Slaton, does not include exceptions for rape or incest.
The whole thing makes me want to throw up, but the second paragraph sends chills down my spine. This is not about life, this is about ownership.
This won’t pass, but the fact that 20 Republicans voted for it the last time it came up, tells me that there are 20 men in the Texas State House who think I’m a baby machine and nothing more. Y’all, can we make stupid on government property illegal? Come to think of it, that would solve a whole mess of problems.
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.
