If It Walks, Talks, And Smells Like A RINO – It Must Be A Republican
Bill Flores is not a RINO. Yes dear readers, I have put into print, stored electronically forever, Bill Flores will no longer be referred to as a RINO in my postings. With the alphabetized, acronym filled world of politics we live in, we have all become “Alphabet Kids”. For those who may be new to this blog, allow me to give a brief cast of [...]
I Was Wrong About Bill Flores
There’s a headline for ya. In fairness, it should say “My Perception Of Bill Flores Was Wrong,” but that doesn’t roll off the tongue so easily. I cannot explain to the full extent how wrong I was or why I think I was wrong in one short blog post…and a long one would make you lose interest and take away an opportunity for me to have [...]
A Few Moments WIth Bill Flores
Shortly after finishing my last post, I attended the public swearing in of Texas State Senator Brian Birdwell. While there the opportunity to speak with Matt Mackowiak, Campaign Manager for Bill Flores, presented itself. During our conversation, I requested a personal meeting with Bill to which Matt said he would see what could be arranged. [...]

Pork And Bean Counting In Texas 17
Another example of earmark politics in TX CD17 and just like Pork Creek Park (aka Hamm Creek Park) Congressman Chet Edwards secured it for the county. We here in Johnson County will be stuck paying the tab—both in our Federal taxes and in our county taxes. Once Mr. Edwards has gotten his pat on the back and your vote, the county will forced to [...]
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 [...]
District 17 Wants To Know: Will Chet Edwards Give Back The Money? Will Bill Flores?

UPDATE: District 17 GOP Chair Erases Digital Record Of Calling Bill Flores a RINO & Chet Edwards "Satan"
The original article concerning Randy Shelton calling Bill Flores a RINO and Chet Edwards "Satan" is here. Mr. Shelton has since erased his pertinent comments from the facebook discussion.

“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…”. Suddenly I [...]
Republicans In The Woodwork Coming Out Of The Closet – Update 03
So I was encouraged to visit GOPisforme.com, a Ning social network, and check out the blog post “Where is Rob Curnock?” I did, and you can click on the link above to see the whole scenario that played out, or you can click on this PDF to see the discussion as it was when I finally decided it was a hopeless cause. Evidently the GOP is NOT [...]
