Internal email from Rep. Joe Barton aide, mocks TX dems &

<snip>

An e-mail written by an aide to Rep. Joe Barton, R-Ennis, ridicules Democrats and gloats over the Republicans' expected victory in a battle over congressional redistricting.

<snip>

"As much as we despise her, she cannot be drawn out ... the Queen lives!!!!" Fortson wrote about Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, whose Houston district remains Democratic.

He mocked Reps. Martin Frost of Arlington and Lloyd Doggett of Austin, repeating "ha, ha, ha" numerous times.

He even took a poke at fellow Republican Rep. Ron Paul of Surfside, saying that winning his redrawn district could be "a lot trickier than thought given Paul's unusual behavior." Paul's votes often reflect his libertarian views on government.

Full story

-BTHOUGHT-
Those of you that don't know, Ron Paul blasted PNAC by name and said the Conservatives were highjacked by Neo-cons. I'm calling his office tomorrow to urge him to become an Independent.

1. I'm in his district.

He couldn't win running as a Libertarian several times, so he switched to Repuke and won, beating a Dem that had converted to Repuke.

His support around here is strange, indeed. They keep saying shit like, "He carries a copy of the Constitution in his pocket," as if that means he's the Supreme Court or something.
