Texans: please refute this Loyalist

[mczerone]

This (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/localnews/columnists/jfloyd/stories/DN-floydtexas_07met.ART.Central.Edition1.4a4863e.html ) Dallas Morning News article needs to be barked down.

Ms. Floyd thinks that Bush II should be the Texan of the year because he has become the international stereotype of a Texan - If I were a Texan, this would be reason to vote him to the gallows (for ruining the image of actual Texans).

Please, any Texans that have the time, write a response, giving Ron Paul props, and address it to the editor, and Ms. Floyd (jfloyd@dallasnews.com).

Make it clear that the Texan of the year should be a person that did something to improve the status of Texas, not destroy it.

oh my "are all Texans fake cowboys?" I've gotten this so many times it is annoying!
Of course they didn't even know I was from Texas much less the US before they asked, and I am not a cowboy so doesn't that answer the question?!

I'm going to bump this before I leave for the night, and reiterate that a letter to the editor response to this would be a great way to show what Ron Paul has really done, igniting the Liberty movement, and to ridicule the blatant butt-kissing that is the article.

I'd hate to see Texas's good name further smeared by a Bush.

Bush has tarnished the name of Texas and Texans for all the people's of the world. To have this jackass associated with Texas is an embarrassment.

Hopefully, better Texans, like Ron Paul, will eventually repair the damage Bush has done.

Don't worry Texans, everybody knows the Bushes as a pack of Connecticut Yankee banking industry Fabian socialists from way back, W maybe spent a decade or so in Texas before going back to New England for HS & College, pretty sure at that time he was still working on his nuculars in front of the mirror every night hoping to pass himself off as a real Texan one day.

A wannabe all the way.

But y'all could sure bring a heap of shame upon yore haids by voting the little Yankee bastard (I can prove that assertion--have you ever seen Barbara Bush?) yore Man o' the Year...
