We’re Screwed

Texas is TWENTY-SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS in the hole and the Official State Clown Car just pulled up to the Capitol to disgorge 101 Republicans, each one more ass-scratchin’ pig dumber than the last.  Meanwhile, our governor is the only person imaginable who makes George W. Bush look like an intellectual giant.  Plus, Bob Bullock (prime minister to Dubya as Queen of England) is dead.  By the end of the session, I expect the Legislature will collapse into anarchy and cannibalism and the entire state to be annexed by Venezuela.  Or sold to Halliburton.
