Dallas Morning News names W as: "Texan of the Year"

[Silverhair]

Sunday morning breakfast. Wife picks up paper off lawn, brings it in. Her eyes shoot up and she hands me the editorial section. Big picture of W and title - TEXAN OF THE YEAR. Mostly favorable article followed. Sorry I don't have a link. I tried to find one but didn't feel like searching that hard.

Well, I guess I know what kind of day I'm going to have. I certainly know how it is starting out.

1. The "Da.M.N." as Mrs. DemoTex calls it.

What a fishwrapper.

2. Pssst... He's from Connecticut...

:-)

[Kolesar]

6. "Connecticut Prep-boy of the Year...of Texas"

Just does not have the same ring to it.

3. Saw it on their internet site.Cancelled my subscription in Dec.2000,when

they supported the decision of the Supreme Court to coronate Smirk.

4. It is sad to think that he is the best that Texas has to offer.

AND that they all know it.

[Ilsa]

5. Uh, there is no need to get nasty.

He's the best the Texas Repukes have to offer, not Texas. I'll rate any Texas Democratic higher than the Chimp on their worst day.

On Edit: Here's the link, but I'm not going to read it:

7. How about carpetbagger of the year...

that would be more appropriate, considering his Northeastern roots, and his style.

[Ilsa]

8. I'll name him "Demon of Death" for the year in my journal.

He's killed more people than anyone else in 2003.

9. They're writng about another Texas

Not this one. Public service is one thing, self service is another.
There are conserviative Republican Texans who are far more qualified and honest than this pseudo Texas will ever be.

I would not even bother to read the editorial. All is does is serves to prop up the myth of GWB as a great whatever.

10. Glad to see he beat out Tom Delay

but at the same time he also beat out Lance Armstrong.....does not compute.

[Punkingal]

11. Well, that's okay..

because we are going to give him back to Texas in 2004.:evilgrin:

[Deja Q]

12. Well, so much for asking how smart this news entity is...

Duh-buy-yeah isn't a native Texan, although he fits in perfectly... (no offense to Texan DUers, you are excepted from the rule of course!)

[BiggJawn]

13. And they ignored Austin's favorite son?

Do we still wonder what Rove is doing with all that $$$$ His puppet and the TinMan are raising?

A full-page ad for the RNC, when it should be obvious that Lance Armstrong is the "Texan of the Year"....

[peekaloo]

14. should be shared with Tom DeLay...making them KoTex-an winners

:eyes:

[Skittles]

15. did you read the disclaimer at the end of the article?

that they "may not agree with him"? They basically say HE SUCKS but HEY his is PRESIDENT (sic) and he is from TEXAS (sic).

:puke:

[Silverhair]

18. I'm sorry. I just couldn't make it all the way to the end.

I reached my end first, before I reached the end of the article. Maybe they should have put that quote at the beginning of the article.

16. Late entry-Willie Nelson

What would you Texans think on changing DFW to
Willie Nelson International.

17. Well, now ain't THAT something for Texas to be saddled with....

a notorious war criminal as their man of the year.
