LOOK IT UP.

They left the state before a quorum could be called. Under Texas state law, the Governor can order the Texas DPS to "escort" members of the state Congress to Austin for a special session. However, they can not do this outside the state lines.

Did the stench of corruption in the Bush admin finally get to them?

One due to health, the other due to age and this one because she wants to run for governor! Only if murdering Ted Kennedy and klansman Byrd had the same common sense

i’m going to be in class and work all day on election day.

Yes. Go to the court house and tell them you want to vote.

Vote out all incumbents until we have a congress that will work for legal Americans. The message that should be sent ,is that we will vote for the candidate that will uphold our laws and constitution.

Will the Libertarian Party become the main opposition of the Democratic Party…now that the GOP has not shown any serious constructive opposition and is definitely on its way into becoming a local/southern party.

Well, I would be happy with the Libertarian party….they would actually have a leg to stand on and present good ideas. While I don’t agree with them on all issues, they are far more appealing to the majority of Americans than is the GOP in its present form.

The only states that voted more Republican this time around are the deep southern states. You had white southerners voting 9 to 1 McCain over Obama.

Do you guys really want to be known as the angry white southern party?

You might have a little bit of support all over the nation, but that’s your base right there.

kick em to the curb.

Almost every leader in the McCain campaign is a lobbyist or former lobbyist. These lobbyist are also formulating the policies McCain offers to confront our current economic crisis including the mortgage crisis. In the case of the mortgage crisis, McCain has chosen a lobbyist that many believe is one of the chief causes of the mortgage crisis to devise similar policies to help resolve it.

‘The general co-chairman of John McCain’s presidential campaign, former Sen. Phil Gramm (R-Texas), led the charge in 1999 to repeal a Depression-era banking regulation law that Democrat Barack Obama claimed on Thursday contributed significantly to today’s economic turmoil.’

Will Americans be willing to give the presidency to the candidate that supports the failed Bush policies in Iraq and on the economy and hires lobbyist to run his campaign?

flip-flop McCain’t.

who is running to be texas senator ?

In 2008, John Cornyn is seeking releection and facing Rick Noriega in November.

For the months of Jan and Feb as a way to stimulate the economy…everyone pays no FICA or Federal Income Tax through payroll deduction or otherwise for those two months….good idea or not?

Not Ron Paul…some freshman

Great idea but it wont be allowed to happen….the powers-that-be cant allow the American people to see what their checks would look like without FICA or withholding taxes….if the people got a whole check there would be a tax revolt overnight….
