TX-21 and the other TX House seats
Good news in Texas on the House front
I live in TX-21, Lamar Smith. He was pro-bailout and votes for
too many pork barrel spending bills. Otherwise a good conservative
Republican Congressman. He didn’t even draw a Democrat challenger
this time around. SAFE.
Since that is quite boring, and I have the 2008 Texas election
results handy, let’s look at the other TX districts:
TX -1 Louis Gohmert (R). No Dem challenger, got 188,000 and 8... more

Fallen soldier, with ties to Belmont, had big heart, family says
When Army Spc. Corey Shea came home from Iraq on leave in September, one of his priorities was to get a tattoo honoring a fellow soldier killed in combat. Shea, a 2005 graduate of Mansfield High School, was killed in Iraq last Wednesday.
Shea, 21, had the tattoo drawn on his right arm: “Fallen hero, Staff Sgt. Caldwell.”
“He got that,” said Shea’s mother, Denise Anderson, “and now he... more
Once I first got my hands on Sony’s PlayStation Portable back in 2004, I tossed the flash music player that I’d been using in favor of the new gadget on the block. But I quickly discovered that the PSP wasn’t exactly a booming system when it came to audio output. For music and videogames, turning the sound all the way up mostly did the trick when armed with regular or noise-canceling headphones. But for video, typical New York subway noises would overwhelm its dinky ... more
During
a session with reporters at the Democratic National Committee’s
Washington, D.C. headquarters this afternoon, Barack Obama campaign
manager David Plouffe made a pretty interesting prediction: Obama could
win Alaska in November. I wasn’t there, but I imagine Plouffe’s
projection was greeted with the sound of every hack in the room
scribbling "crazy" in his notebook. And underlining it. Twice.
For those of you who can’t remember as far back as 2000--o... more
President George W. Bush probably can’t find an Iraqi more
sympathetic to the idea of keeping U.S. troops in his country than
Iraqi President Jalal Talabani, who stopped by the White House today.
The topic was the negotiations over the future of U.S. troops in Iraq
and what legal status they will have when the United Nations
resolution authorizing them expires at the end of the year.
Talabani is an elder statesman and patron for Iraq’s ethnic Kurds.
He’s the long... more
