Here’s a heartfelt blog about the savaging of New Orleans and its environs, various things political, and just plain ranting. Link. The signature post is here [Warning: Use of Profanity, Use of Hard Truths].
We’re pretty much in agreement about Texans, except for our friends who live in San Antonio, who we consider honorary residents of Anyplace But There. Were it not for them, I would happily cede Texas to the Mexicans, or make it part of Honduras or Outer Fuggupistan and toss in whatever change I happen to have in my pocket (lessee, seventy eight cents, plus some string) to sweeten the deal.

Heard on a radio piece about tours of the house that Bush grew up in.
“This is the birthplace of two presidents and three governors.”
To which I would add:

Thanks for the props. San Antonio’s people are typically fine individuals, but the Mayor is a putz.
