I must be in the minority. I read most respondents saying they don't have a problem with these.

I have an issue with each and every one of them.

Key words to ponder: Exec Order #4: "so that the general public and friends, family members, coworkers, neighbors, and classmates will be more likely to ...

To the House tomorrow. Session begins at 2:00pm.

Chas.

THANK YOU Charles for all the endless hours of work. The progress made this session has been tremendous. As of a few weeks ago, I was frustrated with the process and with the individuals who were acting like children instead of elected ...

Isn't this amendment being offered by a so called "R"?

This has to be a Straus strategy, otherwise he would withdraw the amendment and move to vote on the bill.

This amendment will kill the bill.

I wanted to get an approximate measure of what they've done so far so I compiled a quick list from data both on LegisScan and the TLO. The following is as-of today around 1 pm. You can decide the "trend" for yourselves.

Immediate Legislation , HOUSE = 0,
SENATE = 4 (Funds & royalties, Advalorem ...

Well, despite the optimism of the first 4 or 5 replies after I wrote about the disappointment in the status of things, I now see in other postings that frustrations are now reaching the same level I felt last week.

I appreciate the words that Charles wrote in another thread that indicated we are ...

With less than a month to go in the regular session, we have nothing that is done and ready to go to the Governor's desk. Nothing of a substantial nature at least.

Some postings on this site say there is a standoff between the Lt. Governor and the Speaker.

Other postings indicate that the Open ...

several of you seem to be blaming the Republicans as a party....I'm sorry, but I'm blaming one man, and one man only, Strauss. He's why most of these bills aren't coming up for a vote.

They new he had held fundraisers for Democrats.
Please give the details; I'd love to have this for future use ...

WOW! Daniel Cloud was one of the last groups to arrive at the Alamo on the day the siege began. There were some individuals who came in over the next few days, but Captain William Harrison's Tennessee Mounted Volunteer's that Daniel Cloud was a part of arrived on that fateful day that ...

I have to think this guy was not a native Texan.

Texas, or "Tejas" is the Caddo Indian word for "Friendship", and for many years, Texas was known as the "Friendship State", and later dubbed the "Friendly State".

My kids are 5th generation Texans. I learned to drive with my left hand on the top of ...

Thanks for the quick reply and interpretation. I had not thought about the professional sporting event aspect.

I always think of a rodeo as being a sideline of the livestock show, where students show their livestock for judging, and there is a temporary carnival on the grounds as well. Also ...

I would like to get opinions from others on this matter.
I have been a CHL holder for years and I always try to be cognizant of where there might be a 30.06 sign. While I don't always like it, I will turn around and either leave the business, or deposit my firearm in the console and then return to ...
