Texas Republicans Campaign For State Rep ... Fail To Mention She Died Two Months Ago
Click here for the latest example of Republican deceit.

<snip>

A slick new campaign mailer shows a smiling Texas state representative and reminds voters of her many notable achievements in education, economics and politics.

But the ad doesn't mention that Republican Glenda Dawson died in September at the age of 65.

But that's not all.

1. Oh, that's what they were talking about.
On C-Span last night, the round table with idiot loudmouth Liddy Dole, Rahm Emmanuel, Schumer, and some other Repug idiot, it was mentioned.

3. It seems pretty hard to insult TX republicans.
If the gerrymandering and the TTC won't do it... well, I can hope it will.

4. Pretty sneaky
I was going to say that a corpse would probably be a better congressperson than any living person the GOP could put up there, but then I noted their strategy is to have the dead person win and have Perry select her "replacement." I call foul on that one.
