      One of the very rare occasions where she was not as drunk as Cooter Brown. Bless her heart.

      She was a classy Southern lady and I miss her. Haters will hate. She fought for what’s right and good. A Christian woman with humanity and love in her heart. No hate. She was brilliant and her insight was heavenly and God sent. God bless her.

    Buenas Noches Mis Amigos [y Mis Amigas]. Love.
    You need to know what the new, real Texans sound like. No accents because we incorporate/infuse all accents into one. No discrimination. No bologna. No segregation. Just Love.

    That's when politics were fun and nice. People worked together both sides

      Except politics wasn't fun & nice. Bush ran racist ads against Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis. Sadly it worked.

    That's when Democrats were true Democrats. Nothing like the Nancy of today
