The Houston Chronicle editorial, surprisingly says this:
"Perhaps the most valid criticism that can be made of the missing Demos is that their place is in the Capitol, doing the people's business and debating the issues, win, lose or draw. In a more civil era that would be right, but Speaker Craddick throughout the session has discouraged debate, opposition amendments and all the other give and take of politics. On many occasions, he and his lieutenants seemed to regard examination and principled discussion of legislation as irritants...
"By thwarting the DeLay's secretly drawn Washington redistricting plan, the House Democrats are preserving state prerogatives and doing all Texans a favor."
other good news item:
Disney Miramax has struck a deal with Michael Moore to do a movie documentary: Farenheit 911. It will look at alleged links between the families of Bush and Osama bin Laden. Right wing groups are already hollering to boycott Disney for the Bush-attack film, but Disney Miramax is undaunted by the threat.
Yeahhhh.
