Representative Fred Brown’s Spam-A-Lot
I like Texas House District 14 Representative Fred Brown. I’ve even encouraged you to do as I have done, and vote for him. Unfortunately, Mr. Brown is losing my confidence in effectiveness as a leader of his own office. And in his effectiveness as a Representative. So, this is one of those posts where you find out that Truth comes before [...]
Bill Flores Terminates Campaign Manager Matt Mackowiak
So I received this unsolicited message yesterday evening from a source within the Bill Flores Campaign: "Matt Mackowiak was terminated this morning." I have no idea what this means. I never gave it much thought as to whether Mackowiak would continue with the transition efforts or even on staff with Flores once he took the Oath of [...]
American|Writes Calls Texas 17 Race For Bill Flores Over Chet Edwards
Bill Flores has won the responsibility of representing United States House of Representatives Texas District 17 to that honored institution by defeating 20-year incumbent Chet Edwards in today’s election. In a long-fought, contentious and primarily negative campaign, Flores bested Edwards in a political atmosphere that signaled an [...]
American Writer Interviewed On Local Progressive Community Radio Station KEOS 89.1 FM
This past Wednesday evening, October 27th, I was on the Progressive program “Biased Transmission” on KEOS-FM in College Station, Texas. I had been invited by local blogger and host Teddy Wilson, a SOTA (Student Older Than Average) at Texas A&M Blinn College and Iraq War Veteran. Teddy and I have bantered and clashed back and forth in [...]
AUDIO CONFESSION – Chet Edwards Admits: Doesn’t Want Veterans To EVER See a Private Doctor
Last night at the Texas 17 Congressional Debate in Bryan, a nugget slipped by that reveals the true character of Chet Edwards. If you wait around long enough, they tell you exactly how they feel and who they are. So, let me share the nugget. It’s Chet Edwards saying “I strongly oppose that the veterans ought to be able to go outside the VA [...]
Some Good Bull For Bill Flores As Bush 41 Endorses And Texas A&M University Lauds
Bryan-College Station and Brazos County have a favorite son who happens to be the same as the favorite adopted son of Texas A&M University. That man would be the 41st President of the United States of America: George Herbert Walker Bush. Today Yesterday, Mr. Bush enthusiastically endorsed Bill Flores for the Texas 17 Congressional [...]
KBTX Gives Chet Edwards Significantly More Air Time Than Bill Flores In “On The Campaign Trail” Special
Maybe it’s my years in media and a sense of length in audio and presentation, but something about KBTX’s Thursday Evening Special “On The Campaign Trail” felt weird to me when it was over. When it wrapped up, I turned to my wife and said, “They gave Chet more time than Bill.” I could feel it. Maybe you didn’t. But we had paused [...]
A Town Hall With Bill Flores And Jeb Hensarling
An event was posted on facebook last night about a Town Hall meeting on the Budget with Bill Flores. Later it was modified to add four term US House of Representative Texas District 5 Republican Jeb Hensarling…leaving him out must have been a clerical mistake because Bill told me on Saturday that he would be with Jeb this week. The Hensarling [...]
Texas 17: Vote For Bill Flores
There’s a headline for ya, huh? Last night I went to a local shindig, invited by a local politician. It was at a local ranch, and there was beer and barbecue – what the heck, who wouldn’t go, right? I won’t tell you who invited me, because that’s not important. But I will tell you who was there in terms of names you may know and [...]
