4. That's kind of where I am right now. I am so tired of all this but we
won't give up. I just needs a little brain lubrication. Do you think red wine might work?

6. I really, really hate so many of the administration. They are all about
power for their lovely little clique and nothing for the people. Thanks for the help.

7. Sketch a representative drawing of
the state of Texas with a big 'slice' taken out. Then caption it:

How high can you carve your pie?

8. That's a good one. I might have to let someone else do the drawing.
Kansas would be easier to draw but they don't have Tom Delay.

11. No, that's good but they could care less if they "play us for fools".
After all remember the lousiest human even to sit in the oval office was the gov. here where he and his evil cohorts practiced on us Texans before playing all Americans for fools. Rules are NOTHING to them.

10. Another GOP Special Secession!
Show a map cut up into pieces and Delay holding a pair of scissors.
The tag line could be simply "Don't Mess With Texas".
You could even have several people holding pieces of Texas districts and a couple of people dressed as Delay and Perry and/or Dewhurst wielding a pair of scissors. In fact a big group "sign" might make a big impact. (think halftime at the football games).

GOPer's Get Out Of Texas! Go Home To Houston!!!

12. Wait, I don't want them in Houston either. Since they like oil so much
can't they just go to Iraq. Thanks for the ideas. I don't have any one else going with me right now so I'm sort of it.

14. Free the Texas
Free the Texas N, where N = the number of dems on the lam.

Okay, it was lame, but it gave you a kick.

Hotel room - $X (insert a dollar amount)

18. How about
"They'll take away my democratic rights when they pry them from my cold, dead fingers."

Across the top: WANTED
Then a picture of DeLay
Then under that "for GRAND THEFT TEXAS"

"Texas: Where even our assholes are bigger!"
(although that one might be taken the wrong way)
