We pray for our neighbors in North Texas


It was a very rough night for our neighbors in Garland and elsewhere.   

The storms were rough and many families are assessing the damage.   The storms happened on the day after Christmas when many families had visitors or were outside celebrating the holidays.

So let's keep these people in our prayers when we go to church today.

We will miss Randy Galloway

Since moving to Dallas, I've followed Randy Galloway.   

He used to be on WBAP every night, often right before the Rangers' game when they were on that station.

He moved to ESPN and his show moved to afternoon drive time.   It was not as good as it was on WBAP.   

Galloway wrote for The Dallas Morning News and then took the trip west to The Ft Worth Star Telegram.  Always checked his column!

I didn't always agree with him but it's a free country.   Randy was a man of many opinions and his radio show was always fun to listen to.  

This weekend, Randy wrote a farewell column.   It was fun to read.   We will miss him.

Randy is right about thing:   Game 6 of the 2011 World Series did "fry our brain"!

The New York Times, covering Rubio, decides that experience matters

It’s time for another article by The New York Times versus Senator Rubio.  Who else would be so negative against Cuban Americans?
Maybe the folks at The New York Times think that Marco can beat Hillary.   Yes he can, according to a series of polls.   Rubio beats Clinton in the RCP average of polls: he is up 2 points!
The New York Times is now saying that Senator Rubio is like then-Senator Obama of 2008.
The article calls him “The Republican Obama”.
In other words, the newspaper has discovered that experience matters in a presidential candidate.
Of course, the analysis is silly because Marco Rubio got to the US Senate with more political experience: Rubio started as a City Commissioner for West Miami before being elected to the Florida House of Representatives in 2000, and then was elected Speaker in November 2006. He had successfully served in the Florida legislature as House leader, whereas Obama was a back-bench state senator from a safe seat.
Also, Senator Rubio has developed a reputation as a serious person on foreign policy.   Does anyone remember anything that Senator Obama did in Washington or Springfield, Illinois?
I wonder if The NY Times’ editorial page will write an editorial saying that endorsing a first term Senator Obama with zero executive experience was a mistake?   They should, after questioning Senator Rubio’s experience for president.
P.S. You can listen to my show (Canto Talk) and follow me on Twitter.
