If You Can't Beat Him Legitmately Just Lie About It by Jim ODonnell

I hate doing this but maybe it must be done. An article in the Houston Chronicle, who hates him, makes various claims which seem to be made of our of whole cloth.
The only main thing that I can find in the above article which is true is that at the current time he does not have a Democrat challenger announced as an opponent.
According to the sketchy article there are just two Republican opponents who want him out. Yea, them and George W Bush and every other Presidential candidate. As the story is primarily using just a few "selected" sources it is not a very good article.
As all Texas Congressional Districts have recently been gerrymandered under the watchful eye of former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay I do not know how much it has actually changed, but I think not all that much.
In the past is was by registration primarily a Democrat District who has had no trouble at all electing him 10 times. They have known of his views for 20 years and they haven't changed in all that time, so to insinuate that they are just coming out during this Presidential campaign is an outright lie.
Also I will attempt to insert an image of his District which shows that it does not include the City Houston but only touches it in a very few places. Man do I hate liars.
