Flags at Half Mast
The governor a lot us wish we had and that Texas fortunately did have, has died. She was the first major political figure that felt the wrath of Texas' Darth Vader, Carl Rove. What we thought was a question of local politics back when Dubya had the job, has subsequently brought in 6 years and counting of darkness to our land. Ann Richards was surprised and then overwhelmed by the wrath of Rove and Bush. Afterwards, she tried to warn the Dems and the nation and most of us didn't listen. We didn't take him seriously as a presidential candidate.
Here she is in an interview regarding governship.

Thank you, DV, for recognizing Ann's passing.
I haven't gotten around to writing about her. Folks not from Texas may not know much about her fire and feist, but she was one heck of a champion of Texas.
