And your comment possibly helps explain Perry's behavior -- desperation to keep his hold on power. And thanks so much for your lovely compliment. I'm still blushing at being mentioned in the same paragraph as Molly Ivins! I understand your frustration, Steve.

But if you're going to stereotype Texas, perhaps you should read a news site once in a while. If you don't, you risk spouting stale satire that is years out of date. Take Mad as your role model; she bases her humor on real-world current events. As Molly showed us, as Mad continues to show us, Texas politics is funny. But ignorance is not. Read before you write, folks. (Sigh.)

So I'm starting a New Jersey secession from Texas movement. NOw once New Jersey is free and clear, Texas can't secede fast enough in my book. Great blog!
