Assclown Alert is a column of opinion, analysis and snark.
'Texas WOULD have been and SHOULD have been the first state in the nation to put the 10 Commandments back in our schools,' Patrick tweeted last week.
In a string of tweets, Patrick bragged that such a bill passed his Senate last year but failed to move forward in the House. He lamented that Texas didn’t beat Louisiana to the punch in forcing the Christian religion down kids’ throats. “Every Texas Republican House member would have voted for it. But, SPEAKER Dade Phelan killed the bill by letting it languish in committee for a month assuring it would never have time for a vote on the floor. This was inexcusable and unacceptable.”
After all, Patrick this spring endorsed and campaigned for Phelan’s now-vanquished primary challenger, David Covey. Not exactly a great way to win favors from the guy who heads the other chamber.
