Republican Party of Texas Chair Susan Weddington is calling for an immediate end to the Democrats' walkout.

She used strong words, saying they are hiding like cowards and the majority of Texans see them as childish.

"Their total lack of statesmanship has caused them to become a national disgrace and embarrassment to Texans. They need to return to Austin to do the duties they were elected to do,” Weddington said. Since the Democrats want to play games, she said, she made a deck of cards featuring the 53 who signed letters notifying the House of their intended absence, she said.

Don't the Dems have some perks associated with their service in the Texas legislature, like prime office space,etc? If that is true, might this be an opportunity to reduce their perks to a level consistent with their childish behavior. If they are going to behave like children, move their offices to a day care center, and reassign the nice offices to folks who stayed in town to face the music.

I certainly hope the FBI is aggressively investigating Martin Frost's complicity in the theft of the draft redistricting plan.

Even a circumstantial case to the effect that he surely knew the documents were stolen when he transported them from D.C. to Austin should get him arrested.

How about being that coward Bill Clinton who loathed the military, like maost democrats do. The real truth about democrats is catching up, huh?

How about that coward Clinton who refuesed to take bin Laden into custody, allowing for the terrorism that occurred on 9/11?
