Robert O’Rourke writes a theatrical review of a play. His review demeans women. But he was 19, before he was a Hispanic and a Republican, so it’s ok.

In my area, I have only seen one "Beto" sign but right across the street from the elections office was a house with 3 signs for Beto. The honest truth is down here in deep south texas, the simple phrase of "If you don't vote for Beto, they are going to take away your benefits" is what scares the crap out of people to go and vote. Add, "He will bring sanctuary cities here so they can't deport such and such" and you have an almost guaranteed vote throughout the county.

My wife and I are going to vote for Ted Cruz and hope he wins, but down here, he will most likely lose. I hope I'm wrong, I have been seeing more and more trucks flying the U.S along with the "Don't tread on me" flags. I have yet to see ANY Ted Cruz signs but the people down here are NUTS. Should they see it, they will want to mess with your car, the sign, or home. I'm hoping for an actual Red Wave down here and will be completely surprised if the RGV starts turning red. Guess we'll see.

It's sad that the democrats have resigned themselves to buying off the poor and importing illegals to gain and hold power for as long into the future as we can foresee. Worse, they are closer to succeeding now than perhaps at any point in history thanks to the last administration basically doing nothing about the 12-20 million illegals already here but basically welcoming as many more to come as can get here.

Even though most of these people can't currently vote (comprehensive immigration reform/amnesty) however their kids will be legally eligible to vote the day they turn 18. We're now 2 generations past the last promise to get control of our borders which the dem's of course immediately backed down on and neither Bush had the stones to make it a priority.

If we don't take care of it in the next few years we will have surrendered the country to a new "class" of citizen, those from foreign countries drawn here on the promise of never ending welfare benefits who will be willing to take whatever they want by force if it is refused.

That's just the sad reality of what has happened over the last 40 years.

Fortunately the Kavanaugh hearings seem to really be energizing the sane people to get out and vote against a complete takeover by the radical left in November.

There is an important distinction that has to be made of course, between imposition of the welfare state, and the spirit of service to the community. The pioneering, conquering spirit of service to the community is not about handing **** out for free to others in your community and nation. It’s about creating opportunities for them to advance themselves, through their own efforts. Certainly, a short-term helping hand can be seen in the pioneering age of every great culture. That is not the same thing as providing a subsidized living for the lazy and stupid.

Robert O’Rourke is apparently not interested in Obama’s endorsement. Can’t tell if Obama is withholding it or Rebert doesn’t want it or what’s going on.

The latest TV ad that is even playing on you tube, says something about attack ads and creating fear.

What it doesn’t talk about is Robert’s goals for Texas or what his position is: on guns, on impeachment, on oil or global warming, on immigration, on taxes, on ICE, on healt care, really on anything.

It says don’t fear and be for Texas and I didn’t wear makeup for this ad, because I am real.
