HOUSE WALKOUT CONTINUES

Texas blogger, Charles Kuffner at Off the Kuff, provides an Editorial roundup of major Texas newspapers about the Democrat House walkout. The verdict is mostly pro-Democrat which means that Texans' sympathies may very well be with the donkey butts for the first time in my admittedly short memory.

One thing that I realized while reading an email alert that the Texas State Teachers' Association sent me about the walkout is that this political move helps me personally. Republicans are no friends to Texas teachers. They've recently been trying to ram all kinds of anti-teacher bills down the throat of the Texas lege: they already want to cut teacher pay, cut health insurance benefits, lower certification standards, take away personal leave time, and allow principals to fire teachers without reason. So the Democrats are actually helping Texas teachers. That means that the Democrats are actually helping me.

So, to the courageous Neo Killer Bees, I say thanks, guys.

I'm still voting Green whenever I can, however. Maybe if ya'll did something about corporate control, political corruption, polution, civil rights, labor rights, and encroaching religion in the political sphere, I'd try to vote for more of you guys. Until then, my hands are tied. But bravo, anyway!

Anyway, on to the editorial roundup.

Thanks to the all-seeing eye of the mysterious Atrios.
