There are some bloggers who have braved the heat to drive (up? down? who knows?) to Ft. Worth for the Democratic convention. I am not one of them. I would rather spend my weekend in Austin because AUSTIN IS THE BEST. Hey, I was in Houston last weekend. I’ve never seen so many cosmetically enhanced women driving Hummers in my entire life. Talking on cellphones while injecting their mammoth lips with yet more collagen.
But getting back to the convention, which is apparently still going on. I thought they would all give up and go home once they realized that Chris Bell was still the nominee. Honestly, it sounds like a good party. I mean, anything’s fun when you drink enough. How do you think I made it through my 20’s? Here’s the round-up from the dedicated bloggers who actually go to these things. Remember - these bloggers went to Ft. Worth so you wouldn’t have to.

“‘Hey, I was in Houston last weekend. I’ve never seen so many cosmetically enhanced women driving Hummers in my entire life.’
I told you. Stay out of the ‘burbs. And it’s not like Austin doesn’t have that, too. Helllooo? Westlake Hills?
You were in Houston and didn’t call? Hctib.
I’m just glad we can all agree that Fort Worth is a great city.
It’s like watching vomit dry. What makes me very puzzled are the Democrats(?) who are voting for One Tough Bitch because they think she’s the only chance to beat Perry. I know a lot about politics and this one stumps me. Is this how the crack house works?

See? PL knows that H-town is great!
Crap! I just checked out the blogger convention. I have that same expression on my face that Charlie Brown always had right after Lucy pulled the football away. I may have to give up blogging now.

Don’t drive Hummers! Give them!
I’m a transplated Texan now in the northeast. I just discovered your blog and LOVE it.
Chris Bell gave the following line during his speech in Ft. Worth:
“When Jesus healed the lepers, he didn’t call a pollster.”
Then he proceed to sermonize that TEXAS needs to spend money on stem cell research. I’ve never seen such hack poll bs messaging as state money on stem cells.
pathetic.
On the other hand, good work on growing a pair and calling out OTG for what she is.
OTG? Are you referring to One Tough Monogram, CKMRS-XYZ?

Hey! Welcome home! We need a Gotham rep.
DMWP, I’m just not starstruck by Members of Congress. This is just for fun. I keep remembering that the bloggers who helped beat Kerry were not starstruck though. (I’m referring to Powerline, which isn’t so much a blog as a sophisticated online advocacy publication). I guess I’m still in mourning over the death of the Democratic party I grew up with. There will be a new one though, just not this weekend.

Oh get over yourself. It’s a peronal issue for Chris and for many people.

Fort Worth is a lovely town but there aint shit to do there. I did happen to stumble upon the Library, which had $3 warm beer.
Re: 17. Marie
Careful with that.
Re: 4. The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton
I guess I’ll just have to agree to disagree.
Re: 17. Marie
Austin’s library doesn’t serve any beer at all.
Advantage: Fort Worth.
Re: 20. The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton
The Library is a bar, smarty pants. You clearly need to study more.
Re: 12. Tarrytownwingnut

Honestly? I still can’t figure what that means, really.
Re: 20. The Best Ever Death Metal Band in Denton
Didn’t they open a bar called The Library, on 6th street where Steamboat used to be?
or was that the Aquarium?
