Amazing what a few hours of sleep can do for you...And I need to confirm this as well with someone...
Since this session has pretty much been a bust as far as our bills (progun) are concerned...
I believe that if we are going to have a special session, the govenor will obviously have to call it, and if he doesn't then we know where he stands on the big one...That Voter ID bill is the key...And if they call a special session for that then there may be a chance to get the pro-gun bills back into consideration...We got to hit those goobers in Austin so hard they feel it in 2011...And it is not a time to be nice about it either...
I believe we can still get a few things done in a special session...They need to temper the opposition by generalizing the special session to include what they can get done in regards to what is in calendars at the time this session closes...And get those bills requiring one more "read", and then a vote thru the system...Period!!!
Lessee what happens...Who knows...There may be a way to do this...
Call me an optamist, I have been called worse...

But seriously, I was in Austin yesterday, and the Chub-fest2009 has had its desired effect...I had a great visit with my State Rep and Senator while the kids (Wife Unit's 4th grade class) went galavanting around the sights yesterday...
And to think we have had to throw the parking lot idea thru twice is almost beyond me, but it will probably be brought up again in two years...
I'm kinda hoping that the gun-owning and Second Amendment supporting voting block really remembers this session in the coming election cycle...
The Voter ID bill is certainly dead, but its demise does not direct me to do anything different when I run the polls in my precinct...
