How red is your neck?

During a committee meeting, Rep. Debbie Riddle (R-Houston) demanded earnestly,
"Where did this idea come from that everybody deserves free education? Free
medical care? Free whatever? It comes from Moscow. From Russia. It comes
straight out of the pit of hell." Rep. Joe Crabb (R-Atascocita) explained why no
public hearings were held on the now-infamous redistricting bill: "The rest of
us would have a very difficult time if we were out in an area -- other than
Austin or other English-speaking areas -- to be able to have committee hearings
to be able to converse with people that did not speak English." The guy's
talking about South Texas.

Are you kidding me?!?? These quotes come from two of the Republican lawmakers in Texas who are standing around the Texas Capitol trying to figure out why the Democrats up and split on them. Just maybe, it's because you're the most ignorant, ridiculous people on the face of the planet! People with views like these should in no way, shape or form be allowed to create laws that govern their own home, much less a state (much less a nation). Free education, Rep. Riddle, was an American ideal, one that theoretically helps citizens add value to their society. And as for Rep.Crabb - this man should never be allowed to hold an office that represents "the people" again.
