   All that talent and you couldn’t have stopped Dubya back when he was running for governor?!?!

   Believe me, we (the lefties) tried. But apparently we also couldn’t get Ron Kirk elected as a senator, or vote out Gov. Goodhair.

   But we’re not bitter.

   I’m not sure I should be on this list, frankly — I don’t write about politics, I witter about it. But I will leave the question of politiblogging to the eye of the beholder.

   And, belatedly, happy birthday, Chuck!

   My sister Kristin gave me that very bumper sticker several years ago. Tiffany cites it as one of the reasons she was willing to marry me. 🙂

   Now I need to find one that says “I *was* born in Texas, and I’m tryin’ to get back.” And thanks for the links. Now I’ll have to devote twenty-THREE hours a day to blogsurfing.

   Andrew, I’ll be more than happy to add a fellow Tiger to the Expats section, or better yet the Texas section once you’ve found your way back. Let me know when you finally succumb to the siren song of blogging.

    Does Tomball count for being a Houston blogger?
    I will admit I have not been bloggin much lately (unemployment funk I guess) but I intended it to be political from the first.

    Thanks though I have to admit that there are days that driving down I45 seems anything but resonable. The only thing that cheers me up on those days is that it could be worse. My second job after I moved down here was in Belaire. The trip down 249 to the beltway to 290 and then the dreaded loop usually took 90 mins. or so if I was lucky. One night we had to work late (11:00) and I made it home in 45 mins. That was an eye opening experience.

    I keep finding myself surfing back to blogger and blogspot. I suspect it won’t be long now before the bloggin’ bug bites, but good. I’ll let you know.

    Hey – I just wanted to introduce myself and my Texas political blog. Jim and I have started a political blog called “The Burnt Orange Report”. As you can probably guess we are both students at the University of Texas and are both active Democrats. We’ve posted on a variety of politically related topics ranging from UT issues to national issues.

    Thanks,
    Byron

    Thanks for including my web journal. When I started it I expected to focus on politics more than I have, but I am easily distracted.

    By the way I have moved it off of Blogspot to a new location: prairie point.

    Bill – it’s fixed now. Sorry about that, I thought I’d already done that.

    Charles: We tried. And when he got elected, we decided the quickest way to get rid of him was to convince him to run for President.

    We never thought he’d win. After all, he had a lousy record in Texas.

    Charles,

    I’ve been banging away on Writerrific for the past few months and, despite my best efforts, it’s grown increasingly political.

    Maybe it’s because I’m based in Richmond, where I get a closer look at Tom DeLay and his roots than I’d really like.

    A couple of days ago I woke up and finally realized that we’re living in a one-party system now, and so any strategy for improving our lives needs to be adjusted to accommodate that fact.

    I’d be pleased to have Writerrific added to your list; Off the Kuff is really well done and has become part of my regular daily reading.

    All the best

    All you political bloggers in Texas, please note. WatchBlog (www.watchblog.com) is a three column political blog of a special kind. First the columns are Democrat, Third Party & Independent, and Republican. The focus of all articles is election 2004 issues from each party’s perspective. Finally, the almost 30 writers there are carefully screened and selected for quality analysis, research and writing skill.

    Therefore, I would like to invite any Texas Political bloggers out there who would like to see their work published on WatchBlog, to email me at drremer@gvtc.com and include your Blog Url, so I can review your writing skills.

    Finally, WatchBlog is a great resource for poltical bloggers in getting multiple perspectives on the issues of the day. I use it as a stepping stone to articles for my own blog, Political News & Analysis (http://radio.weblogs.com/0124721/)

    Here’s another Texas blog. It’s mine and it is called Texas Politics:

    http://www.freestatecommunications.com/vpltz/blog1/blog.html

    I also recently stumbled on “Texas’ Favorite Prostitutes” which is a cute blog on Republicans and their antics. It’s quite partisan, so beware. It’s over at blogspot at http://texashos.blogspot.com

    and the same thing has happened, i believe, to my friend adam, also based in austin (ALMOST williamson county, but not quite. i think). he’s running A Violently Executed Plan at http://aclipscomb.blogspot.com.

    This is not a compliment is my blog…
    based minutes from downtown houston…
    it’s mostly links to political and cultural stuff I think my friends should be paying attention to, with a little bit of commentary from the perspective of a misanthropic populist…
    if you could add me to the list that would be great…
    I’m just your average lefty lib-leaning tin-foil hat wearing crank, but I’ve got style! 😉
