10. I agree that we should rejoice in our success,

I'll think about changing my avatar later today.

5. Yes!

She did ALL the heavy lifting today/night.

But let's not forget the wonderful Kirk Watson, Leticia Van de Putte, Royce West, Judith Zaffirini, John Whitmire, Rodney Ellis...and all the great citizens that showed up to the capitol and in the gallery!

6. And another star: Senator Leticia Van de Putte!!!

Who left her father's funeral today to attend the session. Her "Parliamentary Inquiry" broke the gallery into cheers.

At what point must a female senator raise her hand or her voice to be recognized over the male colleagues in the room.

This was high art!

22. Democracy Can Work...

...the voice of the people, when united, can't be ignored. Kudos to Senator Davis and all those who stood with her and stood down yet another draconian attack on woman's rights.

For those who think there's no difference between Democrats and rushpublicans...here's big proof at what's at stake next year, not just in Texas but in dozens of other states. Winning back state houses will go a long way toward putting in check a lot of the violations of not only woman's rights but those of minorities (thanks SCOTUS) and GLBT rights as well.
