So, sounds like staffers are letting people fill in their own blanks...Is this a "don't blame us, here's a hypothetical bogyman" situation? Very interesting response on his part. I guess if you were already bent towards blaming TSRA or NRA for all your woes, a statement like that could sound like "Its their fault, not ours".Charles L. Cotton wrote: When asked specifically if either the NRA or TSRA caused any delays, he said, "that's not beyond the realm of possibility" but he had no knowledge of it.

ETA: Certainly not blaming Lavender for spreading rumors, just sounds to me like a staffer is covering his rear by leaving open possibilities other than "well, my boss didn't get it filed early enough to pass in this busy legislative session".
