We damn near fell out of the office chairs when we read the review of the Denton County Republican Party executive meeting in the Star newspapers online.
Michael Burgess was the star of their show, offering up the fact that he is advising John McCain on health care issues. He delivered babies, so we all know that qualifies him on health care. We've yet to hear any other reason why it qualifies him. But sticking your hand up some cooch is apparently the GOP's top benchmark.
Burgess also did something stupid. He admitted that it was ok to not vote for McCain, the guy he is advising. He told GOP members in the room that their friends could vote for Obama, but they could also vote for the GOP down ticket. Um yeah. Who the hell is going to do that? Just admit it, Mikey. You know McCain sucks a big one.
A local constable offered to have a concealed handgun course for $125, with $50 of it going to the local GOP. We aren't sure that is really legal. But we guess that is kind of like taking your defensive driving course at the local Denny's with a standup comedian hosting.
Now get ready for this one. Picture it. David Dewhurst. On a champion cutting horse. No joke. Dewhurst will be the main attraction, on his pony, at their event in Pilot Point. Sounds super. All they need is Governor 39% in his leather chaps to show up too. The last event the Republicans held in Pilot Point this summer got them about 20 people. The draw that day was Burgess and Senator John Cornyn. They were real excited to see the Box Turtle.
Happy Monday!
