Haven't all these magats claim to be able to keep hurricanes/tornadoes/earthquakes/gayness away? Where are they (along with the guv and patrick) around when texass needs them?
Also, again, (here I go into my rant) if texass wants to secede so badly, let them. When things like hurricanes happen, they can deal with it themselves. Also deal with being a sovereign nation and have your own currency, taxes (gasp!), laws, treaties, etc.
Now, now, let us not leave our friends and allies down in Hell to the notional mercies of the Tejas GQP. Let Abbott (hey ABBOTT!) and Wheelie-Boy and your Cuban-Canadian hybrid Senator Cruz and the other one all enjoy their daily bathing in diluted sewage and mosquitos, it is their most recent attempt to terriform the state into something more like their home planets. Once they've poisoned or drowned the native creatures, they can drop the clumsy and ill-fitting human-suits and leap, rejoicing. into the sky
Honestly, at this point I only give a fuck about the people stuck in Texas who want to leave but can't afford to. Everybody who chooses to stay can go without power forever - and yes, I include the whole 'BuT mUh JeRb' crowd, because this country may not last long enough for the overstuffed, underempathetic social media attentionwhore masses who think carping and cunting about shit online equals 'aCtIvIsM' to actually get off their asses to do shit about it.
Holy mother of Crom, they're like petulant children. They're always threatening to run away, but when they skin their knee in the yard they just lay there crying for hours. When they finally drag themselves inside and ask for a band aid, they don't say thank you, they just whine for a few more hours about how mom should have found them in the yard and brought them the band aid. Personal responsibility my ass.
These SOB's think they're sooo clever and no one will notice. Truth is, many times, they do get away with it. "you can fool some of the people, some of the time, but not all of the people all of the time!"
Thank you! It was kind of terrifying in retrospect. I’m so glad T got her power back and I was able to go to her place, and that she insisted on taking me to the ER and let me stay with her for 5 days before my own power came back on (I was out for a full 9 days, with outdoor temperatures of 98F).
THANKS. Just got home from T’s to check on things, and STILL NO ELECTRICITY. UGH. This is Day 6. Will pack up some things and head back to T’s shortly.
well, they have NO accomplishments, they are terminally incompetent, and it is ever so much easier to hoot and throw popcorn from the peanut gallery than than to contribute to recovery efforts.
Why is Abbott still in Korea? Why hasn't he dropped everything and turned that taxpayer-funded jet around and headed for home?
It's kind of hard at this point to talk about how great Texas is for businesses when they want to talk about... this.
Might as well pack it in and head home to do your job, because the great statesman you left behind to fill your shoes... isn't.
Update: Why is Abbott in Milwaukee? He came home long enough to blame everyone else for fucking up the state he runs, grabbed a clean change of underwear, and hied off to kiss Chump's ass while his citizens are still without power.
Oh, and those people without power are dying from the heat.
Having been educated in Catholic schools, first grade through undergraduate, that is my judgment. Some people receive the dead virus vaccine and some get the live virus vaccine. I got full bore variolation and have the mental scars to prove it.
Actually, it was HAARP. Biden has his finger on that button, dontcha know?

Good luck with that.

Texans need to take the hint. GQP pols are just not that into them.
Trump would have answered Houston's pleas with "What have you done for me lately? No, not 2016, in the 8 years since!

Dan Patrick tried to pull the same shit DeWine did after that derailment. Purposefully NOT ask for aid, then blame the feds for not supplying aid.

I swear to god, if some idiot uses the word "weaponized" just ONE MORE GODDAM TIME...
Ta, Dok. I would have commented earlier, but I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL TODAY FOR HEAT EXHAUSTION AFTER 5 DAYS WITHOUT ELECTRICITY.

I am gad you are ok, and also wow horrifying and hugs.

Sorry to see this. I hope your power comes back soon. Also fuck all those guys you mentioned.

You deep in the fart of Texas?
She lives in Houston.
It's like the Republicans in Texas can't resist politicizing everything even a natural disaster.
Because they can’t use god’s retribution for abortion anymore

TX GOP politicians are incompetent at all but blaming dems for their incompetence...not that they actually care about people who live in Houston.
Two months ago I went without power for three days after a big storm here in Texas.
All articles like this should include the phrase "Republican-run Texas" in the headline.
This!
"Repub governors have turned their cities into third world countries!"

Ta, Dok. Abottoir can go fuck off, and bring Patrick, Paxton, and Cruz along for the ride.
The continued existence of Greg Abbott, Ted Patrick and Ken Paxton is proof the God is evil, and hates us, and wants us all to be miserable.
