Oh please. You’d rather reward failure because Beto probably sucks? That’s the magic of democracy.  if Beto sucks you vote against him too. Democrats have other problems but one of the problem with Republicans is that your standards are too goddamn low and you don’t hold yourselves accountable for how things are. 
We used to be Mississippi with good roads. After 30 years of misrule we are just Mississippi.

Abbott has either been Texas Attorney General or Governor for 20 years.  For 10 of those years, he’s had a Republican in the White House to back him, including a former Texas Governor.  The things he bitches about here in 2022 and blames on Democrats, he could have been working on/solving many years ago, but he didn’t.

The fact that he didn’t fix those things 10 or 15 years ago says either that he’s fucking incompetent, or that he’s the consummate political puppet who only uses those things for votes and donations.  Or both.

And Republican voters will reward him for 20 years of not fixing the things he’s bitched about by…..giving him another 4 years.

If this were a private company, would you seriously keep a CEO around who can’t seem to fix shit after two decades in the highest levels of company management and who spends way too much time whining about what other companies are doing?

 

@fattyflattie

Do you not find it disturbing that fucking Rick Perry, barely graduating with a degree in animal husbandry from Texas Agricultural and Mechanics University, was more forward thinking and seemingly competent than Greg Abbott, who has a degree from UT Austin, and a law degree from Vanderbilt?

While the corndog deepthroat aggy wasn’t the brightest, he had the same aspirations of the mighty Beto. To be the president.  He was born for it, just ask him. All the hopes and passionate sweaty soap box speeches doesn’t mean shit.  Dude is a fucking slimeball with flavor of the month policy ideas.  I can sit here and talk about all the awesome things I’d do too, it’s one of the perks of not actually being in the seat.

Uh, yeah.  Everyone on this site knows why the border isn’t secured.  If you think your boy will “fix” that situation, I don’t know what to say.  And going full on open it up because “I’m one of you, look at my nickname” isn’t a fix.  

Personally, I think he’ll win.  It’s going to suck, but I believe he’ll fail so bad it’ll stem the purple talk for another 15 years.  This next decade is going to shape the country for the next 50 years.

Fatty what are you so afraid of?

Why has Texas had Republican led open borders for 20 years? Please tell. None of the other 14 border states with Mexico and Canada, or Florida with Cuba has been this way.

Why can’t Texas Republicans do something, anything to fix?

With Beto?  I’m not afraid of anything. One, thing I very much don’t like is that he’s vowed to remove well into 5 figures of my property.

The "news" doesn't typically say that.  The "news" sometimes points out that they can be had that cheap, but as usual, you twist the truth into some more extreme pseudo-reality to further your fucked up agenda.

This man thinks Beto is going to win, so he purposefully spent 10k the last 18 months to give Beto a bigger haul when takes his guns.

Ha. Not exactly. I just don’t buy garbage.  Who knows if he’s actually paid for all that, or if it’s on credit, but what’s on his porch is more $$$ than about 75% of Americans have in the bank.  Think someone said he’s in Austin. Maybe to bought them with a heloc.

You think Beto's ability ends at campaigning? I mean... I think that's a valid criticism. But who knows? Maybe, maybe not. We don't know. And it's not like the governor solves policy issues alone. And what the hell has GOP leadership at that level done the past two decades then? 

Kudos to you though. At least you're honest that you value (at least your persona on this forum) gun ownership above other areas of what it means to live and participate in society.

You, Yourself posted that broken brain.

Texas Democrats are not going to create a state income tax, and can’t at this point.

Criminal justice reform in this state is done by Democrats, specifically John Whitmire.

Please tell us what you like about Republicans and voting rights. Requiring an ID? That’s it. That they stopped COVID from being a valid reason for absentee voting is laughable.

What immigration plans do you like by Texas republicans? The open border or the wasted money and lives from Operation Lonestar and a defective wall.

What do you enjoy about Texas Republicans telling Texas women if they get raped and pregnant they have to keep it. Or withholding medicine and procedures for abnormal pregnancies.

Fatty doesn't care that the republicans are talking about addressing "the trans question" in a way that TOTALLY doesn't mirror nazi rhetoric, nor does he care that his vote has led to pregnant women who are forced to carry miscarried dead fetuses until sepsis for fear of criminalization, nor does he care republicans are stealing public education funds to give to churches under the guise of "school choice".

He only cares that his taxes may go up and he may not have all of his fun pewpew toys to play with. Fuck everyone else who faces negative externalities due to his decisions!

... what's that? Fatty has built his whole livelihood off of ignoring negative externalities as an oilman? Unpossible!

If you are a conservative leaning moderate in this state, you should be champing at the bit to vote for Beto and Mike Collier. Texas will have a conservative state house and senate for at least the next decade, but a D governor and Lt governor will at least blunt some of the bullshitery right leaning moderates claim to hate. They aren't going to pass any meaningful gun reform, state income tax, or force you to give your house to immigrants. They will simply act as a speed break on our downhill slide to statewide fascism. 

Shit, I forgot it was all about money with Fatty. "We can start with that" and probably end with it, too. Very good. Mea culpa.

You can thank level-headed sane Republicans like Joe Strauss for that. Sadly, there's not many of his kind in the state house these days.

Gotcha. And do you see why some of us are feeling that way now? Cause what the GOP in TX is proposing is quite a lot closer to being real and hurting citizens here. While what you state is possible but not probable. After all, TX democrats/liberals ain't quite like what they are in CA or NY. And I don't think they should be lock step in that way either.

My first or second post stated that I can see why some of you (this board, my neighbors, etc) would feel that way.   But I expect everyone outside of the .001% to vote in their interests.  I find it comical that  people expect others not to.

Jesus Christ, the squad, the Green New Deal whatever bullshit you play up in your head has no influence over 76 potential Texas Democrats in the State House and 16 potential Democrats in the State Senate, along with Beto to cutoff oil and gas overnight.

The criminal justice quip set me off. Show me you pay no fucking attention to the state legislature when you think it’s Republicans leading the way. Or that Dems are gonna bring up some state income tax to offset property taxes, when we just solidified it in the Texas Constitution in 2019.

You just described Greg Abbott, who is the fucking epitome of flavor-of-the-month ideas, based on whoever is a threat to him, whether it's Don Huffines (and the billionaires backing him) or Beto.  Oh, and when Abbott beats Beto in November, you will see flavor-of-the-month ideas like nobody's business because Abbott gives no fucks about Texas, his sights will be firmly set on DeSantis.

The only people who think walls will stop illegals are fucking morons, because the walls aren't removing the incentive to come to the US, and that incentive is construction, lawn, etc. jobs that, even as shitty as they are for us Americans, pay a shitload more than most jobs in Mexico and points further south.

You know what the aggy was actually proposing in 2001?  An actual solution that would slow down illegal immigration, because he pushed the idea that if we improve conditions in Mexico, it removes the incentives to come to the US.

Republicans don't want to stop illegal immigration and you know this.  You fucking know this flatty.  They want that cheap labor, which is why Bush, McCain, Perry, etc. were pushing a guest worker program in 2006 and 2007, and it's why Republican administrations, whether it's Bush or Trump, don't take the simplest of steps to make life difficult for the illegals.

What are those steps?  Well, if you want to stop illegal immigration, you shut down the jobs.  Have the IRS and Social Security Administration pour through their databases and look at all of the times that clearly showed Social Security #s being used illicitly (I had to become intimately familiar with how easily they are misused due to somebody using my SS#).

And you get strict.  Tyson Foods gets raided for the 5th time for employing hundreds of illegals?  Stop with these bullshit fines and fucking drop the hammer on them, and drop the hammer on their management that is helping hire illegals.  Frame it as a national security issue if you want - claim that by encouraging people to enter our country illegally for jobs, they are working to subvert our law enforcement and border security.

But Republicans won't make the IRS and SSA crack down on Social Security # fraud.  They won't drop the hammer on companies that keep on employing illegals.  Because Republicans want it and they've wanted that illegal labor for decades, because why should Betty J. Babyboomer mow her own lawn, and why should a major homebuilder in Texas pay more for actual American citizens to build homes for them when illegals do just fine.
