TAKE TEXAS BACK!
A bunch of thieves, thugs, and nutcases took over Texas. Then they used it as a stepping stone to Washington, DC.

They raided our treasury, stripped our schools and handed it all to their corporate cronies.

Y'all ready to do something about it?

The Scourge of the Republican Radical Right

by: Libby Shaw

Wed Sep 29, 2010 at 22:36:53 PM CDT


Oh boy. Meet the new crop of a potential Republican freshmen class in Washington.

Christine O'Donnell, Senatorial candidate (R-DE) has issues with witchcraft and um, er, masturbation?

May I ask what witchcraft and masturbation have to do with creating new jobs for the jobless in the U.S.?  

The BP loving apologist Joe Barton, Taliban Pete Sessions and Hitler fixated Louie Gohmert could potentially chair powerful U.S. committees on energy, financial services, the environment, national security, appropriations, the budget, education, oversight and government reform, education, veteran's affairs, science and technology and many others.

What a rather bone chilling thought.  

Libby Shaw :: The Scourge of the Republican Radical Right
Apparently Louie Gohmert is far too fixated on Nazi extremism to be concerned about the unemployed in his district.

According to right wing Republican thought the jobless are jobless because all of the unemployed are shiftless, lazy and whose sole purpose is to freeload off of gubmint funded unemployment insurance benefits.  

So much for new job creation efforts in Texas.

Moving along, deeper into the fringe, check out the very finest of a Texas jewel in the crown of pimpitude for BP and big oil.

OK, so now that we know Joe Barton has super glued his lips to the butt of BP, what is his plan for the jobless in his district?

Crickets continue to screech.

Good ol' Taliban Pete Sessions joins Joe and Louie in bringing honor and brilliance to the great state of Texas.

Did I miss anything about a plan for creating new jobs in Texas?

I didn't think so.

Meanwhile, the Republican right remains completely out of touch with the needs and concerns of everyday Americans.

The slick and cool looking Republican right in California may seem far less sinister, wacky and more rational and reasonable sounding than the Texas radical right.

Not quite.

There is not enough perfume and lipstick available on the planet with which to cover up the ugly stench spewing from the great state of California.  

Sigh.  Crickets continue to chirp on the job creation front.

As we all well know California, like Texas, despite Rick Perry's denial tantrums, has serious financial and border security challenges.

Republican gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman, a billionaire, has dreams of buying her way into office.  The former Ebay CEO has pumped $129 million of her own bucks into her campaign so far.  

Sorry Meg, but money can't buy you love. Especially when you invite extra large mafioso type bullies like New Jersey Governor Chris Christi to bully voters with questions.

The extra large bully thug from NJ had no plan for anything, other than bullying a voter who had the nerve to ask Meg Whitman a question.

We've seen this movie before.

We see it every day.

Pete "Taliban" Sessions is the Chair (0.00 / 0)
of the GOP Congressional Campaign Committee, and no one seems riled up about beating him to deny him that position, much less the possible committee chairmanships if the GOP takes Congress.

Pete spends his time raising money and giving it to GoOPers who are running agains Democrats for congressional seats all over the country, and people should take a high level of interest in that!

Thanks for the post, Libby.

I'm thinking we need to do a diary on Pete at DKos to get people outside Texas interested.  At least it will make it to the Election Diary Rescue diary the next day.

Does no one (well, finally the Deocratic Governors Association has taken an interest) else outside Texas care about the Texas Governors race?  I think it sets the tone for all tho other races, including Congressional seats, down-ballot.  And of course the TX Leg is important because of the upcoming re-districting.

sigh  I'll keep plugging.


Thanks, Tom47 (0.00 / 0)
Go for it!  Let me know when you upload the diary on Pete so I can r/t it. :)  Please do keep on plugging.  We can't win w/o a fight especially in Texas.
