Phank, a person's character does impact their job, especially in politics. For example, if someone lies and cheats on their own spouse or family members, what makes you think they would give a second thought to lying and cheating to strangers they are supposed to represent?

And when America elected politicians who had earned nicknames like "Tricky Dick" (Nixon) and "Slick Willy" (Clinton) they shouldn't be shocked to discover that they were less than honest.

Wendy Davis has a relatively short political career and has already provided so much evidence for being dishonest in her dealings with the public.

Wendy Davis has suddenly become a GUN ADVOCATE!!!!!
She has recently been touting an "open carry" policy for Texas --- we now have concealed carry provisions. She had been ANTI-GUN prior to running for Governor, but, apparently, realizes "if you're gonna play in Texas, ya gotta have afiddlerhandgun in the band!"
(her party is not very happy with this position)
(we'll see if the strikethrough function works)
DRAT!!!!!The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

There is a push for open carry, and Wendy has jumped on the bandwagon, cause it's her only hope to attract most Texans.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

I was at a Pastor Conference Monday morning in Houston, and several of the Pastors from Austin were in attendance. One of them was giving a report on the "Wendy Davis" situation. His Church had a number of pro-life members show up to demonstrate at the Sate Capitol, and his report was quite interesting.
He told how his group broke into small prayer groups, and would be praying for the legislative process concerning abortion. Out of nowhere came a larger group of "pro-choice" people chanting satanic chants, including "hail satan, prince of darkness". They were acting in a menacing manner, surrounding the prayer groups and out-shouting them, and it was a clear attempt at intimidation. (As my legal counsel, Spartacus, pointed out, they probably weren't "real" satan worshipers, but they sure played the part.) This pretty much went on all day, including in the "overflow room", because the chamber where the now infamous "filibuster" took place was full.
The pastor went home that night, expecting to see these reports on the local news, because the news crews were there in full force. He was stunned that not a single event as he described was depicted, though they managed to interview a number of "pro-choice" advocates.
He showed us several iphone video clips of what he was talking about, and then he showed us the video from the nightly newscast for that day. The difference was quite striking. Now, if the "satanic chanting" stuff had been only a few isolated incidents, it would be understandable, but they were, reportedly, "out in full force", and quite prevalent.
Austin is quite "different" from the rest of Texas.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
