So if government has been reduced to a playground, why are we so picky about who we elect?

Seems to me anybody can do the job.

Jones said he lost all three times he played the card game "42."

Sloppy journalism. Any good Texan knows that 42 is a DOMINOS game and NOT a card game.

The WashTimes reported that the Dem legistlators were in Oklahoma..to avoid being arrested by the Texas Rangers...

I'm still impressed that the Texas Rangers were sent to round up all of the renagade demonrats.

In Oregon, we sent process servers to round up ours.

Process Servers aren't nearly as colorful, swashbuckling, or romantic.

Of course, Oregon isn't as colorful, swashbuckling or romantic as Texas.

They have a major flaw in their system by requiring 2/3 to be present for a quorum. It gives the minority the ability to obstruct, just like a filibuster. If it's a House rule, and not a state law, once they get a quorum, they ought to correct it. If it's a state law, they ought to look into reforming it.
