Swimming in a Sea of Red: The Bible as Our Constitution
http://redtexaspolitics.blogspot.com/2007/11/bible-as-our-constitution.html
Swimming in a Sea of Red. Keeping track of politics in America's most famous red state. Friday, November 16, 2007. The Bible as Our Constitution. In response to my colleague's blog, blueoasisaustin. I wanted to offer my whole-hearted agreement to his assessment of the issue of stem cell research. Lucky for me I haven't been directly affected by any such disease or disorder as my colleague has been, but it doesn't mean I don't have strong feelings about it as another human being in the world. This has NOT...

Swimming in a Sea of Red: What's the Deal with Texas Elections?
http://redtexaspolitics.blogspot.com/2007/11/whats-deal-with-texas-elections.html
Swimming in a Sea of Red. Keeping track of politics in America's most famous red state. Friday, November 2, 2007. What's the Deal with Texas Elections? I hate to seem like I'm always railing on Texas' politics but this is my blog, so I thought I would call into question the way elections go here in celebration of this coming Tuesday's elections. At the risk of sounding like Dennis Miller, Andy Rooney or some horrible hybrid of the two I will proceed. First of all, who are we voting for? The lone star way.

http://redtexaspolitics.blogspot.com/2007/10/look-ma-no-red-tape.html
Swimming in a Sea of Red. Keeping track of politics in America's most famous red state. Friday, October 5, 2007. Look Ma, No Red Tape. The state legislature passes a lot of pretty mundane laws and resolutions. In fact, most legislatures pass some stuff that's pretty ineffectual or just plain leaves you shaking your head. It seems like one thing they got done last session actually was pretty worthwhile and at the very least, neat. Posted by Matthew Maloney. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Good O Texan...

Swimming in a Sea of Red: November 2007
http://redtexaspolitics.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Swimming in a Sea of Red. Keeping track of politics in America's most famous red state. Friday, November 30, 2007. With only a little over a month left until the first-in-the-nation New Hampshire primary and seeing as I've yet to shut up about how I'm from NH yet this semester, I thought I'd keep with the trend and relate my favorite political event to Texas politics. Being a loyal Granite Stater and as big a fan of Bill Gardner. Posted by Matthew Maloney. Friday, November 16, 2007. I'm not saying the cu...

Swimming in a Sea of Red: GOP Finds New Target - The GOP
http://redtexaspolitics.blogspot.com/2007/09/gop-finds-new-target-gop.html
Swimming in a Sea of Red. Keeping track of politics in America's most famous red state. Friday, September 21, 2007. GOP Finds New Target - The GOP. Apparently the Texas GOP has little tolerance for many of the same things the national GOP has similarly low tolerance for. Their agenda didn't fall into line with Representative Kirk England's (Grand Prairie) and he decided this past Thursday to jump ship and switch the (R) in front of his name with a (D). England Switches Parties. Posted by Matthew Maloney.
