Yes Longhorn bob wrote that....do you frequent Texags.com??

I got that as arthor unknown . It touched me so much I had to post it. Here is another I like. I like big cars, big boats, big motorcycles, big houses and big campfires.
I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some
governmental stooge with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack
addicts for squirting out babies.

Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can
kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you
from driving to the ball game.

I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, that is why there
are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! I think that if you
feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion. I don't
think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except numbers. The
only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory are things like the
United Negro College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and
Miss Black America. Try to have things like the United Caucasian College
Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment Television, or Miss White America
and see what happens. Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door. I have
the right "NOT" to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird,
or tick me off. When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities
where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is
the law of statistics.


I know what sex is, and there are not varying degrees of it. If I received
sex from one of my subordinates in my office, it wouldn't be a private
matter or my personal business. I would be "FIRED" immediately!

I believe that if you are selling me a milk shake, a pack of cigarettes, a
newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact,
if you want to be an American citizen you should have to speak English!. My
father and grandfather should not have died in vain so you can leave the
countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours. I think the
police should have every right to shoot your sorry [censored] if you threaten them
after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word "freeze" or
"stop" in English, see the above lines.

I feel much safer letting a machine with no political affiliation recount
votes when needed. I know what the definition of lying is.

I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are
qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or
tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or
any other business.

We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives
in wars to defend their freedoms so that decades later they could come over
here and tell us our constitution is a living document and open to their
interpretations. I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor. I know
wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television, and that doesn't stop
you from watching them. I believe a self-righteous liberal or conservative
with a cause is more dangerous than a Hell's Angel with an attitude.

I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and
continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating
system that's better and put your name on the building. Ask your buddy that
invented the Internet to help you.

It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a
parent to stand up to the kid and smack their little [censored]' when necessary and
say "NO.


"I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't
pretend they are a political statement. And Please stay home until that new
lip ring heals, I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you
serve me f*&%king french fries!

I am sick of "Political Correctness" and of all the suck ups that go along
with it. I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born
in Africa, so how can they be "African-Americans"? Besides, Africa is a
continent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my
great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am
proud to be from America and nowhere else.

And if you don't like my point of view, tough .!

A-men brutha!!!

If you don't like my TEXAS-TUDE, go back home!

If you want to live like a Texan, talk like a Texan, with a bunch of Texans, by all means pull up a chair and stay a while!

GOOD LUCK & TIGHT LINES!

there are 2 types of people in this world Those that are from Texas and those that wished they were from Texas!!!!!!

Reminds me of a time well past (1950) walking down the street in NY City with a couple of other GI's, as we were gazing at the buildings one of the guys said "Sheet, we got out houses bigger then that in Texas"
One of the others, from Calif., said "Yep, and you need every one of them"

Wolf: Yes, it is a virtual tradition!

As we in our family like to put it, the old family was here way far back enough so as my Great- Great and so on,Grandfather was in the Congress of Texas, when it was it's own country. The new family got along from Mississppi after 1855. I'm a proud Texan! My boy was born in Texas. My wife was born in that far reachin state called California, but made it to Texas at the ripe old age of two days. So I don't hold it against her too much. If any of you ever search your Family tree, you'd be amazed how far back you can trace your Texas roots!

I hate to bring this up. But...
Texas also means helping others.
Thousands of Texans have been out combing the woods and underbrush of East Texas to try to help piece together a tragedy.
A national bird burned and fell from the sky and thousands of ranchers, clerks, public servants, bar tenders, barbers, politicians, postal workers and game wardens joined up.
They joined together just to help. Never a question. They left their warm homes and families and dug in. Just because that's the Texan thing to do.

The shuttle just happened to burn up over Texas...the world will see an example of our volunteerism here in this state. The folks that live here never had a doubt.

I'm fourth generation by the way..I love to visit other places but I'm always glad to get back home.
