Here's John Galt's tweets:

And here's Acevedo's tweets:

https://twitter.com/ArtAcevedo/status/3 ... 7359287296" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
https://twitter.com/ArtAcevedo/status/3 ... 2084823041" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It appears that Galt got under Acevedo's skin when he accused him of corruption.
Liberals and corruption go together like white on rice. Corrupt liberal is redundant.

Try to remember that there are a lot of people that didn't vote for them. It's like saying you deserve the obama administration since you are a voter... surely [and rightly so] you'd take offense to that.

I just got out of Austin last year -- far northwest, a mile or two from the Williamson County line. I voted in every election for which I was eligible, and you can bet it wasn't for any of the jokers in office. There's only so much you can do.
