It's not just your parents, you have many friends that are living under the rule of Lamar Smith right here in Travis and I'm sure all over CD21.

Go read a brief synopsis of this weekend's town hall meeting with Lamar here in Austin. Lamar Smith Gets Schooled by Sensible Constituents. I was there, it was juicy.

At this point, a man with silver hair stood up. "Representative Smith," he said firmly, "I have been a Republican since the early 1960's." Oh, no, I thought, here it comes - shill time. This guy had to be part of the crowd called in by the Travis County Republican Party this morning to give Smith some cover.

"I pay a lot for taxes," he continued, "and I consider it a social investment. I am outraged! When this catastrophe hit, the president's response was that we should 'give to private charity.' I am outraged that this party can't support our country. We can't deal with our own self-defense. You need to fire Chertoff and these FEMA clowns. What are you doing with our tax dollars?!"

At this point, the audience broke into applause.

It's time for Courage!
