Just got this email — in my city email inbox, mind you — from my uwanted friends at the SEIU:
Dear Friend,
Earlier this week the SEIU New Media team wrote to you about what our union is doing online to help get Barack Obama elected President of the United States.
Over 25,000 people have […]

A few days ago, after Mayor White pitched a fit over the distribution of some relief supplies, I expressed some concern over Mayor White’s tendency to make harsh demands and slam people whom he felt didn’t meet his expectations:

Well, our good buddy Ronnie Earle, up in Austin, may have just shot himself in the foot big time. First he gets a pair of hightly touted (by the MSM) indictments, that not only could not stand the blinding glare of public scrutiny, they couldn’t stand a flicking candle of indifference at midnight.
