Reply #18: Umm, who voted for them?

Texans, that's who.

That's the crux of the biscuit. It's hard to swallow, but it's still true. I believe Molly Ivins quoted a former lieutenant governor, speaking of the legislature, "if you think they're nuts, you should see some of their constituents."

Texas, thanks, has given the country some exceedingly corrupt and crazy politicians, mostly because they keep voting for them.

If you want the rest of the country to stop thinking that the majority of Texans is bull goose loony, Texans will have to stop proving that they are.

Cheers.
