Am disappointed.  And I wonder where did Rick's conservative principles go?  Think he is looking at another position?

Lack of creativity on my part, I guess.
I just joined today and I liked it.

Heh, I saw it and liked it, thought about adopting it as my avatar too... but then decided that would be way too confusing.

LOL, nice!
Frankly, I am not computer savvy enough to know how, so I picked the flag avatar as that was the closest to my mindset.

Rick Perry just endorsed Trump.

Got to give a pass to Perry.  He has gone from having problems remembering 3 things to 1.
I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

I saw RWH there also.

For all who know Basil, please remember her in your prayers.

I started a thread on the Texas State Page:
http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,205514.0.html

There is a thread on FR posted by her daughter Pesto:

Dear Freepers
Basil, suffered a stroke in early January. It left her paralyzed on her right side and unable to speak. She's got very limited speech and her mental faculties are diminished. She spent many weeks in a therapeutic hospital but when it became apparent that her condition wouldn't improve, our family decided she'd be much happier at home. Hopefully we can minimize her suffering and keep her comfortable. Please pray for her, and Mr. Basil who is an amazing care giver and hasn't left her side.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3428506/posts

If anyone else is interested in visiting her, please let me know and I will try to coordinate a time with her daughter.

For those who don't she is one of the original FReepers and a passionate defender of the 2nd Amendment with her work with


You may also notice she is the one pointing at the anarchist punk on the bike in my avatar photo.

I live about 5 miles from the Redneck Country Club.
Gary P Nunn was there just last week end.
I saw Ray Wylie Hubbard there.
They bring in a lot of good music.
Another one of my favorites it Two Tons od Steel.
I try to catch them whenever they are in the Houston area.
Drove to John T Floores Country Store in Helotes to see them, and Gruene Hall.

Howdy all, from another Texan ... and proud founding member of the RCC!

The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

RCC?

The "Redneck Country Club", owned by talk show host Michael Berry.
Good food and good music.
He has events open to the public, but he has a lot of members-only perks.
