Don't forget Rafael's bullshit lies about renewable energy being the cause of the power grid failure. Gosh, if only he stayed in Texas to find the truth.

Oh, who am I kidding? It's that fucking spineless coward Cruz we're talking about!

Are you kidding? He's smarter and more competent than any of the clowns presently "running" the state. Although, to be scrupulously fair, he's just too dumb to understand the modern GOP religious tenets that make the others all willfully dumber than he is.

The business of Texas is stealing land and money (and cattle, when available) from the suckers. The suckers are happy to die like flies so that their Masters can live comfortably. It's the natural order of things. God wants it that way.

We lost power for nine days after Sandy. During that time period, I actually had tickets to an Aimee Mann show in Tarrytown, where she opened with this little ditty:

Oh, SandyWe hate you worse than OsamaOh, SandyNow Chris Christie is hugging Obama

(if you don't recognize the tune, then write your congresscritters to make sure they keep supporting Social Security.)

Yeah, but how many of those dancing girls were coerced into working there because they were hungry and couldn't get any other sort of job?

It's also the future normal so they'd best develop better supercold and superhot weather survival chops soon.

I'd be more glad if they'd refused to give him one and made him run the gauntlet.

When I was a kid there they seemed to think that Black folks in all their cotton fields were a basic necessity, too.
