No, this isn't about my busted bracket. This is a half-assed attempt to console myself that it is at least theoretically possible that my Congressional Representative isn't the sorriest member we send to DC. If I missed anybody, be sure to let me know.
Since I have no idea how to do one of those nifty document thingies that you can click and make bigger and I can't exactly draw a bracket on here I am going to have to do what I can with what I have.
At the risk of gathering a heap of flames, let me perfectly clear about this, I love being a Texan. I was born here. I will probably die here. I would sooner cut off my left nut than to surrender my state or my nation to crazy, mean people. I want this collection of pinheads gone from Congress. I would LURVE to see someone stand up in the Democratic party and spank these guys. Sadly, there are some that run unopposed. That has got to stop. Surely we can find someone in our midst that can run a campaign and has a personality above that of a turnip.
Ok, with that in mind, here is my bracket, well it is more like a list. Deal with it. Since we are all about citations and evidence around here I have links and links, except for Ron Paul and Joe Barton I don't think anybody around here needs confirmation of his brand of crazy and Smoky Joe just makes me too damn mad to look for him.
Louis Gohmert. A true number one seed. This guy has East Texas insane down pat.
John Culberson thinks calling people fags is just peachy.
Pete Sessions thinks the Taliban have it right.
Ted Poe cites Nathan Bedford Forrest. Not your best source for quotes.
John Carter, signed onto the Birther Bill. My very own representative! Well, bless his heart.
Kenny Marchant; another co-signer of the birther bill. I know I see this dimwit in teh tubz spouting off some nonsense periodically, but this was what I could find. It'll do.
Randy Neugebauer not only does not have any sense of decorum, but he doesn't have any common sense either. Another Birther
Ron Paul. The name says it all. Dr. No. He was saying No to everything long before the rest of the Republican Party decided it was a brilliant game plan. I swear it is the fumes from Pasadena that waft over the district that keeps him getting elected. Everybody's brain down there is so mushy from too many toxins that they just keep mashing the same button time after time.
Joe Barton. Grr. He pisses me off so much that I didn't want to look for him that hard. I might hit something or spit up some bile. Just put him down as major league climate change denier. At least a two seed.
Jeb Hensarling Was all ready to sign over Social Security to Wall Street. 100 Monkeys Typing and Mrs. Monkey attended the town hall, along with some other well-informed humans and asked some hard questions.
Pete Olson Pwned by his own point.
Lamar Smith sez it is all the dang librul media's fault that this country is going to hell in a handbasket.
Mac Thornberry has trouble defending torture. Get'em Tweety.trouble defending torture
Mike McCaul ran ads on the Burnt Orange Report. He didn't mention losing 3000 jobs though.
RalphHallSamJohnson I don't know if they are surgically attached at the hip, but they did manage to find time to hobknob togetherhobknob with that highly regarded blogger, Pamela Geller. Getting cozy with the haters. They are lower seeds too, for no better reason than they just don't spout off nearly enough to rank higher.
Mike Conaway just can't seem to manage too well to be a good hypocrite. Having a hard time believing your own lies? Might be some scruples left in there somewhere. Or are you just not used to it yet? Talk to Karl, he can coach you.
