Here’s something you don’t see every day: a Democrat who is honest enough, and courageous enough, to call out his own party not only for its dirty dealing, but for its outrageous hypocrisy in pretending that the dirty dealing is all on the other side of the political fence. Is Democratic strategist Julian Epstein planning to retire from politics and spend the rest of his life sunning himself in the South Pacific? Is he planning some other kind of disappearance from the scene? He might be well advised to do so because leftists are notoriously inhospitable to those of their number who dare to break ranks.
Epstein’s singular act of courage, or political swan song, depending on your point of view, has come amid his fellow Democrats’ towering rage over Republican efforts to revise the state congressional map of Texas. Democrat “lawmakers” have fled the state and are doing everything they possibly can to stave off the redistricting, and are claiming that the Republicans are resorting to the sleazy old tactic of gerrymandering to reduce their political strength.
There is more. Read the rest here.

If our politicians would work as hard to do good for us citizens as they do fighting over BS we’d all be better off.
