CradDICK trying to stick it to Texas... again
Everyone's favorite codger, Speaker Tom CradDICK (R-Cocksucker) has asked all members of the Texas House of Representatives to be present for a very special episode of Blossom. I kid, I kid. It's actually an episode of Moeshe that will help explain teens having sex to some of the dumber members of the Lege (wake up, Warren! Look alive, Berman!). After the video, CradDICK has asked the members to vote to suspend a constitutional rule that prohibits consideration of legislation not designated by the Governor as an emergency on the floor within the first sixty days of the session.
Suspending the rule requires a four-fifths majority vote. The rule has been suspended every legislative session except one and CradDICK has used it aggressively during his reign of terror. Some of his hits include:
1) All but eliminating the ability of consumers to sue... anyone.
2) Kicking kids off CHIP
3) Fucking up school finance
4) Finding, then losing, Jimmy Hoffa's body (in the folds of Linda Harper-Brown's stomach, natch)
5) Redistricting fun
6) Tax 'cuts' that were more funny stupid than funny ha-ha
7) The TTC and Here-A-Toll, There-A-Toll, EVERYWHERE-A-TOLL!
Sounds perfectly innocent, no? Yeah... given what a vengeful prick CradDICK always shows himself to be, I think it's safe to say he's going to try to drive another anti-consumer, anti-taxpayer session in the House while drinking a puppy blood juice box.
Keep in mind that almost a fifth of the Lege (and they were all Democrats) voted against CradDICK for speaker. Now that the committee assignments are out and the vengeful asshole has done what he's going to do, we're hoping they'll pull in a few more people and slap his ass down on this.
