"I raised hell with the governor for not declaring martial law," he said Thursday. "I told her last [Wednesday] night I was going on 'Hannity & Colmes' and criticize her for not doing that, and 20 minutes later, she did."


I remember after Hurricane Celia in 1970, the Governor of Texas declared martial law that evening and ordered a curfew at sundown.

That would have been Preston Smith. He served two terms an was brought down by being connected to the Sharpestown real estate scandal. Democrats seem to have a way of attaching themselves to scandals. I guess that is why they always think Republicans are doing something crooked. After all, as Slick's people often said, "Everybody does it!"
