Gotta just love this...
There's just something very appealing about snarky Texas women ridiculing Tom DeLay....
Tom DeLay’s appearance at the Rosenberg Civic Center last weekend to explain teacher retirement was everything I could have wished for – Tom was arrogant, rude, patronizing, and I have 400 witnesses to prove it. And then, as if determined to make this the best day of my entire life, Tom threatened to have people “removed” and would not allow the news media into the room. Thank you, Tom! I owe you a big one, Bub. For years, everybody thought I was exaggerating about your rotten attitude until you came to Rosenberg and made me look like Miss Understatement Festival Queen.
However, I did think that my fellow audience members were a little rough on Tom with all their booing and sardonic laughter. After all, Tom was slumming by coming to Rosenberg. With schoolteachers, for Socrates’ sake! Schoolteachers don’t have any money and the Rosenberg Civic Center is certainly a long slide down from the country club or Haughty’s Steak House. I think Tom was expecting the Mother Teresa Award for Being a Regular Guy because of this event. But instead, he got booed. And, worse yet, laughed at. By mostly women. Hundreds of them.
It restored my faith in sisterhood.
Go read it. Priceless.

Fabulous! I will be bookmarking Juanita. The texas women I know are an excellent group. Ol' Tom's only chance is to get Diebolt machines next time.

That was one sweet, little story. It cheered up my dreary, rainy afternoon.

Great story about Tom DeLay. Ya'know it would be fun to watch his re-action as the new president delivers this sensible and "actionable" state of the union.
I'd like you to consider reading the text for a "state of the union" address that I believe is imperative for this country of ours. To get to it, all you need do is click on the below enclosed U.R.L
