Making Grover Norquist Look Good
Statesman readers' vitriol is boundless

We may not be getting that many comments here at Chronic – not yet, my darlings, not yet – but that's not without its upside.
Over at the Statesman, let's see what the “Talk of Austin” is regarding City Council's raise today. (All comments sic like a motherfucker.)
Bruce7 sez “They vote for Every Bond Issue. Spend, spend, spend. That’s why the City and State are bankrupt.”
erich pontificates, “crooks they are crooks and they should be thrown out of office not given a raise, i cant believe these crooks want a raise”
and Jennifer Kim McCrackhead says... well, with a name like that, does it even matter?
Got something to say on the subject? Send a letter to the editor.
