Welcome To Texas Liberal
Texas Liberal is a blog of politics and political history.
My name is Neil Aquino. Here is my profile.
I can be reached at naa618@att.net.
Additional focuses of the blog are books, art, poetry, personal relationships and, also, sea life and marine mammals.

The signature post of this blog is the Martin Luther King Reading & Reference List. This list is the best of it’s kind on the web.
Another good post is my reciting the words to the Shaker hymn Simple Gifts on Galveston Island, Texas as a ship passes behind.
I live in Houston, Texas and I do sometimes write about political issues in Houston and in Texas.
I also often write about my former hometown of Cincinnati, and about the great beach city of Galveston, Texas.
I define liberalism as a role for government in the economy to help make life more fair, and a broad acceptance of people regardless of who they are.
This is why it says “All People Matter” at the top of the blog.
A blog grows one reader at a time. If you like what you read here, please consider forwarding the link.
Texas Liberal began regular posting on July 25, 2006.
I also blog at the Houston Chronicle as one of eight featured political bloggers, and on Where’s The Outrage? which posts out of North Carolina.
Thanks for reading Texas Liberal.

Texas Liberal 
why does this hilbilly get any air time? the media keeps her alive. cut off the cameras and she will vanish like ross perot. she is a foolish person and even the right thinks she is a twit.
Many on the right worship her like some sort of evil goddess.
than why does the left maedia keep covering her? i know the media is supposed to be fair but really, stop showing her i can barley watch the news anymore it so pathetic
It is more the cable shows than it is nightly news or newspapers. The cable news networks have so much time to kill that that they will broadcast Mrs. Palin for what seems like hours on end.They also have such small audiences, even FOX and CNN when taken as a number out of the entire public, that any ratings boost is sought. I guess Mrs. Palin brings home ratings.
she makes me sick. whats up with the nazi right wingers calling obama a nazi as well? barney frank at least has the eggs to go off a little.
Why do people get so wound up about Sarah Palin? They constantly dismiss her as ignorant, yet go on and on and on about her. Are they secretly afraid she’ll get elected president?
well august not really affraid in the positive way you are trying to say. affraid like affraid for my life and that of my child and future after the 8 years of george the butcher and his master dick. what frightening is that she is still taked about. she was dismissed by the voters and than dismissed herself as govenor. she needs to fade out of the media where she belongs, back in a trailer in meth central alaska watching her kids spit out future moron voters. i still cant believe she would charge rape victems for rape kits. she is a hillbilly with no class that never deserved or earned the attention she has received. the coverage makes me want to vomit.
wow i need to spell check haha
