The Texas GOP -- Tackling the Tough Problems
We were proud yesterday to highlight the state GOP's common sense agenda to solve Texas' toughest problems.
Rather than be distracted by nuisances like public school finance, children's healthcare, or a tax bill, House Republicans rolled up their sleeves and took on the real problems facing Texans -- hundreds of state highways left unnamed, when they could be called Reagan; that rampant scourge of illegal voting in Texas, that has gotten so many Democrats elected; those greedy, selfish rape victims, who insist on being medically treated after they're attacked; and that one chance, however small, that even though gay marriage is thrice illegal in Texas, some gay couple could tie the knot -- sure, nobody's tried it yet, but it could happen any time.
Today we are proud that Pasadena Representative Robert Talton has added a new plank to his fellow Republicans' platform to really help Texas families in their everyday lives -- stop gay foster parents. For gay foster parenting may be the most difficult crisis facing our great state. The possibility of the schools closing pales in comparison to gay foster parenting; kids losing their healthcare is tough, but it doesn't hold a candle to this foster parenting nightmare we're in; rural poverty is hard to take, but first we've got to do something about gay foster parenting!
Thank you, Mr. Talton. The people of Texas see you and the House GOP have the wisdom to know what the real issues are, and the courage to face them. You do the taxpayers proud.
