Ann was semi palatable as gov until Slick Willy started running for pres, IIRC. Then she went total Dimocrat zombie, which really was a good thing if you look at it. She couldn't ever keep her mouth shut and when asked about passing concealed carry laws after the Killeen shooting, she told the press Texans were too stupid to carry guns. That was what really cost her the election as people were really pissed about the existing handgun laws and what happened at Luby's . Of course, if Claytie had kept his stupid mouth shut when talking to the liberal press, we might not have had Anne for guv.

She single handedly destroyed several state agencies. Namely State MentalHealth- Mental Retardation and TxDOT. Took 20 years but TxDOT did a fair job of recovering. But MH-MR was a thing of the past. Threw most of those folks right out on the streets. Was the start of the homeless problem in Austin.

This is true and with the huge influx of aliens Biden is letting across the border it is only matter of time until there are no conservative states.

Scary Stuff.


Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

So why hasn't Abbott called out the NG to close the border?

Seems like pretty standard stuff, but then I'm not a politician.

In Texas the Lt. Governor is actually more powerful than the governor. It was the way the Dems created it after Reconstruction ended. It is also why the Texas governorship traditionally was occupied by political lightweights who didn’t have the power to get appointed/ elected US senator for Texas.

Lots of money to be collected from donors if they keep the current system in place. Not like NRA is going to primary the TX senate GOPers. Just look at the worthless vehicle inspection sticker scam that benefits a few GOP donors.

Like the 30.06, 30.07 breakdown and the fact that TX is the only State in the Union that makes carrying into a Bar a Felony.
