Juanita notes something that bears repeating.
Here we are in what is assumed to be the conservative stronghold of America. It's Tom DeLay's old district, for Pete's sake.Yet all three of the Congressmen from Fort Bend County - Al Green, Nick Lampson, and Ron Paul - voted against the President and his war.
Take that to your Lincoln Day Dinner and chew on it, Bubba.
As great as my admiration is for Molly Ivins, "sistren" is in fact the female analogue of "brethren," and dates back to at least Chaucer.
