Today in “Texas lawmakers doing something right for fucking once”
Joe Straus is a moderate Jewish Republican who has been battling against the Tea Party for a long time, and has been repeatedly targeted for defeat – as well as anti-semitic abuse – because of this. This doesn’t surprise me. I wish there were a lot more like him.
Thank you, Joe Straus.
I wish we did not live in a time where what you did required bravery. But, unfortunately, we do.
Thank you for your courage.
Hey guys, especially in Texas?
You should send this guy thank you cards and positive thank you emails and that kind of shit.
I can guarantee that his office is getting flooded with nasty bullshit over this. It gets really, REALLY bleak and lonely when that’s ALL you get. Letting him know that he did good (yes, even if JUST on this one issue, if you disagree with everything else) is actually REALLY HELPFUL for encouraging politicians to do what you want.
