Never Argue With A Fool…
You know the old saying…because people won’t be able to tell the difference. I’ve been stuck in a silly argument with Dan Hunt, that I mentioned a few times before and you can follow by clicking this tag. Here it ends, for multiple reasons. Primarily, it degenerated to Dan’s calling me a liberal Edwards plant and I summarily end [...]
Former District 17 Johnson County GOP Chair Calls Bill Flores A RINO And Chet Edwards Satan, Too
It seems Dan Hunt can’t get out of Texas 17 politics fast enough. Now he’s joined the chorus of calling yours truly a Liberal plant on Chet Edwards’ payroll.

“How can Bill Flores prove to you he is a conservative?” my wife asks. “I mean, what actions can he take or words can he say that will change your mind?” Am I hearing these questions from the lady who up until 2 years ago pretty much voted the party line without question? “Well, he could…he could…what about…”.

Okay, I have several articles I am working on but they won't be published for a few days, so thought I'd give you something fun to play with. What would your caption be for this?
