Yeah, Texas politicians promote a lot of backwards thinking, but dont forget about people like Wendy Davis, who for 12 hours filibustered the passing of a law that would have virtually removed women's rights to choose to have an abortion.

There are a lot of backwards thinkers by the standards of many people on these boards, but there are plenty of forward thinkers too.

In conclusion, I would like to say Texas rocks.

The end.
My bad, NSW, I'm not really up with what's happening in US politics!

I would agree that a lot of awesomeness has come from Texas Some places just get a bad rap, and a load of stereotypes attached to them.

Sorta like how I ride a kangaroo to work and live in the outback.
