Distractions To Make Up For Lost Post
I had a nice long post ready to go. But when I hit the “publish” button, all the words went away. I don’t know where they went. I don’t have time to get much together before bedtime. I have to be at work early tomorrow. Yet I know you folks count on a post each day from Texas Liberal. So I’ve assembled a few distractions for you to stare at until I update the blog in about 24 hours.
Above is a running mule. Sometimes you run and run and still don’t seem to make much progress.
Below is the spinning Earth. We are all sisters and brothers on the Earth.
Next we have a house being built. You don’t see that much anymore.
Here we have pink heart becoming gay pride symbol indicating my support for gay marriage.
Here we have a boat and a bridge. Regular readers of this blog will know I like the ocean and water and boats.
Franklin D. Roosevelt. He was a great President who strongly enhanced the role of government in our economy.
And, finally, a tree and a leaf. This is a symbol of both death and renewal.
Thanks for reading Texas Liberal.

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 picture above is of the Houston Ship Channel. A narrow channel can lead to a wide sea.)
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.

I support gay marriage too
While I don’t support gay marriage, I can respect their rights to demand fair treatment and equal rights.
I mean I *do* respect their rights to demand fair treatment and equal rights.
i support gay whatever they want to call it. civil union marrige whatever. i thinks its silly that the rights are not equal. and as for the house building we have plenty built the government needs to get involved in all the blight properties left empty all over the country and help people get moved into them. show them how to take care of them and give them free classes on simple repairs to maintain the properties, this would solve many issues with housing and taxes and properties that have been left for dead.
Nursemyra–Right on.
Saleema—You’re going to get there in time.
Bill—A little investement in telling people how to own a home and maintain a property would be helpful. That is a solid thought.
Thanks for all these comments.
