Just as the most extreme behavior by members of any group doesn't
characterize the group in general, it's unfair to characterize an
entire person by his or her worst weaknesses or mistakes. If there are
not going to be any roads named after persons with current or previous
drug problems, we can safely assume there will be no Rush Limbaugh
Tunnel or George Bush Business By-Pass. Rush Limbaugh will be "old
news" 20 minutes after he's dead, of course, but GWB has earned a place
in history. It would be nice to see his name carved on something,
somewere.......and of course opinions will differ regarding exactly
what that something, somewhere, should be. :-)

Let's all name our driveways after Willie. That ought to make him feel good.

Mount Rushmore

*********
Oh dear. You must not have heard.......

There's been oil discovered under Mt. Rushmore. Sources say it's enough
to supply the
domestic needs of the entire United States for 4-6 months.

It's coming down, of course. Some company that Dick Cheney used to to
head has been awarded a non-bid, no-limit, off-budget contract to
demolish Rushmore. Rumor has it that they will employ a couple of
thousand non-union "guest workers" with hispanic surnames to do the job
with picks and shovel, and bill out the time at $250.00 an hour.
Additional rumors that the
INS will haul away the entire workforce each week, exactly half an hour
before payday, are probably unfounded.

Next on the agenda will be Yellowstone Park. Some good ol' Texas oil
boys have an exclusive contract to tap all that geothermal energy
currently "going to waste". They will be given access the the
taxpayer's park free of charge, of course, and then allowed to charge
us all through the nostrils for the energy they "recover" from our
publicly owned natural resources.

Maybe then we can rename Old Faithful the George W. Bush Fountain of
Truth. It would seem appropriate: blows a lot of hot air on a regular
basis, but once the sound and fury has subsided very little else in the
immediate vicinity has actually changed.

And even if the reports of oil under Mt Rushmore should prove to be
false, there's one more reason that GWB could never join the other
presidents depicted there.......there isn't enough room remaining on
the mountain for the sculptor to put GWB's image an appropriate
distance (half a mile?) to the right.

That's great, but I spent half a day getting lures ready for fishing tomorrow
and sanding off the gelcoat repair on my boat scratches.

Also, and more importantly, I saw an Eastern Towhee (male) at my bird feeders
today. First time!

You have to laugh at a refusal to name a road after Willie Nelson

Bear in mind, these two are a couple of small-time, small-minded state
senators whose meteoric political careers likely hit their zenith some
time ago. Shame -- Willie ought to have his own highway.

But, these two state senators are elected representatives of their
districts. There opinions and positions are more valued than yours.

well krause

you worked for unions your whole life, you carry two union cards. Now on
social assistance. You lost your own family business immediately after
successions, and you have the nuts to say,,,,

Texas Repubs curb Willie Nelson honor

- - - - - - - - - - - -



May 1, 2005 | AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -- Willie Nelson's name is off the
road again.

A state legislator had proposed naming a 49-mile stretch of Texas Highway
130 being built around Austin in honor of the Texas country music singer.

But two Republican senators, Steve Odgen of Bryan and Jeff Wentworth of
San Antonio, said they didn't want Nelson's name on the road that crosses
their districts, citing the musician's fondness for drinking and smoking,
and active campaigning for Democratic candidates.

"It's frustrating, and sad in a way, but at this point, there is no
reason to make this an unpleasant experience for anyone, especially
Willie, so I'll take no further action on the bill,'' said state Sen.
Gonzalo Barrientos, an Austin Democrat and the bill's author.

Barrientos said he wanted to honor Nelson "for so much good music and so
many good works.''


Many modern-day Republicans are soulless, honorless, herd animals. Just
read some of their posts here. They care only about themselves, they're
foul-mouthed in the extreme, they behave like jackals, and they don't dare
step over the line drawn by their leaders.

He's paid for his tax problems. So that is a non-issue.
Please show what evidence you have the Willy is a "drug addict". Surely
you aren't confusing his free and open stance on legalization of pot as
an addiction, are you?



Hmmm. George W. Bush cheated the taxpayers with some of his business deals
in Texas and, of course, he's a drug addict, too. But Hertvik still kisses
Bush's butt.

Ullico cheated it's customers (unions) out of millions of dollars.
