"As I was listening to KUT earlier today, they were discussing more options for generating state revenue such as allowing liquor stores to stay open on Sundays. People, our long national nightmare is over. Apparently Sunday liquor sales could bring in an extra $7 million. I don’t think they’re counting us. Now since I don’t drink liquor—only wine and the occasional Prosecco when I’m feeling especially festive—this wouldn’t really impact me. Except for the fact that it would impact all of you which, in turn, impacts me. I don’t think you should be discriminated against just because you want to drink on the Lord’s Day. You’ll have to answer for that in heaven (or wherever you end up)."

finally, some good political news in Texas
