Back In The '70s When My Friends

For A Border State, I Would Argue That Texas Is Less Lunatic On The Subject Of Immigration Issues Than Other Places Around It, Like Arizona. They're Much More Comfortable With Their Long-term Identity As A Place With A Very Large Hispanic Population.

You Know, I Really Miss Sex Scandals. They're Generally Colorful. They Almost Never Mean Anything Over The Long Run. And While They're Going On, The People Who Actually Keep The Government Running Are Let Alone To Go About Their Business. Good Old Sex Scandals.
