It turns out that Schieffer fella is not that big of a dumbarse after all. He got out of a race he never should have entered. Well he still is a dumbarse of sorts for actually thinking a lot of Dems would embrace his candidacy for guv of the Lone Star State. A lot of [...]

On The Roundtable

Maybe this will be the first year that The Roundtable does a two-fer on picking the run-off winners. I think there are still nine races on the ballot. A mayoral, controller, two district city council, three at-large council, and two HISD trustee contests are yet to be decided. That would make for a good pot [...]

I saw where HISD Trustee Larry Marshall was endorsed by two of his former challengers in the run-off. That is interesting because usually the challengers to an incumbent endorse the remaining challenger in a run-off.
Oprah is getting more run than health care, Afghanistan, and The President this morning and she still is going to [...]

Commentary doesn’t like to rely on profanity to get my point across so I really can’t express my true feelings about Dave Wilson and his evil ways. I was watching him being interviewed on Channel 11 yesterday and he seemed to be relishing the attention and totally oblivious to the hate he’s spewing. He kind [...]

I guess anyone can get on their laptop and send something over to CEWDEM and believe in their own BS and of course not know the facts or do their homework. It happens all the time in cyber space. Jonathan Day is the Chair of the new Houston Business-Education Coalition (HBEC). It consists of about [...]

Commentary watched The Rogue on Oprah yesterday. I don’t agree with most of her positions but I do think she is great entertainment.
Chief Bradford sent out an invitation to a fundraiser. The fundraiser said there would be music and dancing. I hope the folks that think dancing is sinful don’t weigh in on this.

Commentary was stuck without internet this weekend thanks to AT&T. So I missed doing a take on the Hootsie hate campaign. I guess if my last name was Hootsie, I’d want to spend my life hating folks. I missed out on doing a take on the Gene Locke Latino Lunch having three times as more [...]

Commentary pretty much got a whole lot of folks hot under the collar over the past couple of days on my mayoral campaign takes. Somebody even thought I was the first to inject the croissant factor into the campaign – huh! Personally, I am a flour tortilla guy. Heck, some folks are now making lists [...]
Retain This!

My old acquaintance Hector has suggested that Commentary’s working for the Gene Locke campaign. I guess Hector who by the way has never met a retainer he didn’t like doesn’t read Commentary. I’ll say it again. Commentary always discloses who his clients are if it is relevant to a take. I remember a few weeks [...]
Croissants, Anyone!

The Gene Locke Campaign reads Commentary. They invaded the Controller Annise Parker – CM Peter Brown press conference yesterday and handed out flaky croissants. In today’s Chron, Annise says “Which candidate will say no to insiders and lobbyists running City Hall. There may be two candidates, but there’s only one choice.” Huh! Annise has had [...]
