Go, Raging Elephants, Go! I have put my money where my mouth is. Now, how about the rest of us Tea Partiers throwing in? This one is for all the marbles.
Kudos to Raging Elephants! It's so important to show everyone who the real Joe Straus really is... a turncoat that was elected by the Democrats and his gang of 11 RINOs as Speaker. He is a pro-choice liberal - his own wife is on the board for Planned Parenthood. People need to wake up. The Democrats got more of their own agenda through under Straus' leadership than they did when they had Dem. Speaker Pete Laney! For cryin' out loud... Straus is no conservative.
@scubajunkie1 you have no idea. First off, yes, Julie Straus WAS on the board of planned parenthood. But she stepped down when they decided to start performing abortions in 1993. Also, what does it matter? His wife doesn't speak for him. Second, Speaker Straus is no liberal. In the 09 session, the house was damn near split down the middle, he had to be moderate if any work was going to be done. We have a 2/3 majority right now, we shouldn't be bickering and attack our own fellow Republicans
@jsa4ever92 We are a weaker party because of Straus' leadership. He was first elected by going to the Democrats - and check my facts - they are all accurate. He continues to appoint liberals as committee chairs. Between him and Dewhurst's appointments, we're in real trouble. Voter ID & Sonogram bill have already been weakened tremendously. With Paxton or Chisum as Speaker, we would be in a lot better shape - but Reps didn't want to listen to their constituents... and you can't fix stupid.
@scubajunkie1 weaker party? ...that's a good one. The 11 Republicans who opposed Craddick were right to do so-he had too much of a grip on power. Straus didn't go to Democrats, the 11 Republicans came to him. Also, the Voter ID hasnt been weakened at all, THE HOUSE HASNT EVEN TAKEN UP EITHER ONE YET THIS SESSION! It's apparent you don't know what you're talking about. The senate is the body who weakened the sonogram bill, Straus had nothing to do with it. Your facts are halftruths, at best.
@jsa4ever92 Now Straus is the power monger. Voter ID - discussions of allowing the indigent to claim exemption for ID, people to opt out due to religious beliefs being photographed, etc. The House can't even bring non-emergency bills to the floor until mid-March - I know that.. I also know Straus is proving his liberal ties. Yes, Senate weakened the sonogram bill, but Straus' committee chair appointments show exactly what he thinks about life, crime, border security (a Dem. chair!!!), etc.
@scubajunkie1 Let's look at those chairs. The sonogram bill (or one of them at least) has been refered to State Affairs, Chaired by Byron Cook (GOP). Yesterday HB 15 passed, sponsered by Sid Miller. Why would Joe Straus give Mr. Miller such a high bill number if he was opposed to the sonogram bill?
In regards to the border and crime, Rep Miller is chair of Homeland Security and Public safety. Miller has a 100% rating from the American Conservative Union.
@fgrimer007 Once again, Liberal, YOU LIE! This effort is being funded by ragingelephants dot o r g. Folks send them a donation, so we can get rid of this poseur (Straus), who is a frontman for the Liberal agenda that was rejected on November 2nd by the people of Texas.
@58tkdmike LOL. Fail! You liberals cannot even come up with an original slam! The saying, "Liberalism is Mental Disorder" is already known and out there -- coined YEARS AGO by conservative talk radio host Michael Savage. Too late. Try again, Mike, really, you pathetic loser.
Go, Raging Elephants, Go! I have put my money where my mouth is. Now, how about the rest of us Tea Partiers throwing in? This one is for all the marbles.

Who is paying for all this and where is the disclaimer? Follow the money - Tim Dunn of Midland - Tom Craddick's home.

@fgrimer007 The disclaimer is very clear as it should be in the last 5 seconds of the ad. It cleary states who's paying for it.
