Dunnam: A one-man P.O. band.
Nobody can get under the skin of the state GOP faster and better than Rep. Jim Dunnam, D-Waco.
He is to the Republicans what Tom Craddick is to the Democrats.
Calling him "Do-Nothing Dunnam" in a news release, GOP spokeswoman Hans Klingler said his actions against suspension of the rules this morning on the House floor were "reprehensible."
See? I told you they were mad.
This is the second press release the state GOP party has put out about Dunnam (just Dunnam) in, like, one week. One more and he could open a gallery.
"The taxpayers of this state want action on important items such as property tax relief, education funding and health care. Jim Dunnam obstructed the process when he went to Oklahoma and again today. Unfortunately, Dunnam’s “take my ball and go home” obstructionism is a victory for partisanship over leadership."
For the record, the gov wouldn't comment on this mess. But I'm guessing that if Jimmy Dunnam and his fellow Ds are managing to use THIS particular maneuver to block property tax relief .... yeah, the gov would step in and declare it emergency legislation.
I mean, I'm just guessing.

So much hateration from the GOP. Cheers to Rep. Dunnam. His next bottle of whisky is on me.

You don't get it, Dunnam doesn't get "under the skin", he is funny. He's like a big yelping clown and so he makes it fun, a sort of carnival atmosphere, to throw darts at him. I like him, he reminds residents of the High Ground of Texas & the Giant Side of Texas why they don't much like Democrats anymore.
