The right-wing U.S. Supreme Court, which through its rulings on campaign financing has already turned over control of our electoral process to rich fat-cat Republicans, has now ruled that those same rich fat cats living in Texas are really the only ones who should have a representative voice in Austin and Washington. The court said Democrats, the poor, the middle class and minorities should just forget about having any say in how our government operates when it issued a stay Friday night on the resdistricting plan prepared by federal judges in San Antonio.
Problem is, however, the redistricting maps prepared by the racist, classist legislature can’t be used either because they still haven’t been cleared by the Justice Department.
Hey, folks, we got absolutely no maps. What’s a crooked politician to do? Stay tuned. It's not fair, but it just might turn out to be fun.
