As is the norm, these were the most-read posts in the last month, but not necessarily written IN the past month. As is usual, older posts will be noted.
Tenth was last week's Texas Progressives Roundup, which included DPS head Steve McCraw's retirement.
At No. 9? Mocking Scott Ritter bragging about eating burgers with Brainworm Bobby, made more "poignant" because this was just before Wasted Space dropped out.
No. 8? I noted that declining Rio Grande reservoir levels aren't all Mexico's fault, and in the process, took state Extension ag law writer Tiffany Dowell to the woodshed for a bit of apparent Texas exceptionalism.
No. 7? "Capitalism for Capitol Reef! Big Pharma for Big Bend!" mocked the (Eli) Lilly Endowment's $100 million donation to the National Park Foundation.
No. 6? To put it bluntly, "Law Dork" Chris Geidner is Law Dum Fuq with his claims no constitutional amendment is needed to clock out Supreme Court justices. I demolished that. Of course, Kuff promoted this. (Worse, Kuff, in his weekend roundup last week, ran another piece bemoaning aging federal judges that can't be moved off the bench. That's a real hobgoblin of a foolish inconsistency, to riff on Emerson.)
It was throwaway, but at No. 5, a third-party news roundup of last week, which trended because a true nutter from the LaRouchie cult within alleged Communist parties, the Socialist Workers Party, kept commenting and commenting.
No. 4? Originally written last November, and updated since then, most recently in July? Jill Stein remains an investments hypocrite.
No. 3? Indeed, the end of cattle-car boarding will be the end of an era for Southwest Airlines next week. I wondered there if "bags fly free" would go out the door next.
Up in second? My kicking the ass of Shepard Fairey and supporting pro-Palestinian protestors at the DNC.
No. 1? The entire clusterfuck around Jill Stein eventually settling on Butch Ware as her Veep has "Green Party," stereotyped, written all over it. It's part of why I'm a non-Green and will continue to be one until the party gets its act together, and I'm not holding my breath.
