...one of the most backward in recent memory. They just passed a "medical marijuana" bill targeted at epileptics, but that's about it. Estimates are that very, very, very few Texans will benefit from this law.

Another example of Republicans doing next to nothing, but touting their "leadership".

We won't make real progress in Texas until we get some new Democratic leadership.

I've been wrong before, and I hope I'm wrong here.
