The Secret Plan to Overthrow Craddick


by: Karl-Thomas Musselman

Sun May 27, 2007 at 05:41 PM CDT


So, unknown to us all, there have been some signs you may not have noticed that are all secret message and part of the final plan to topple Craddick tonight. We're offering this as a BOR exclusive.

Listed in the original Loco And Dissent Calendar was actually a list of members ready to sign on to anti-Craddick efforts, disguised as sponsors of a bill.

After that signal was sent, the Governor have his tacit approval by defeating the State Amphibian bill of Bonnen, a sign of thanks offered to Rose for releasing his pledge to Craddick, seeing as the blind salamander is in his district and he was not given the chance to offer the bill.

Now, Rep. Dunnam has planted his daughter on the dias who has control of the gavel. The plan? Have her steal it and run out of the house. Without the gavel, the Speaker will be powerless as his absolute power is drawn from the 17 inch Phoenix feather located in its core, which happens to match the same core feather found in Tom DeLay's gavel. 

At that point Rep. Talton will raise a Point of Order that the whole House is out of Order, the whole Session is out of Order, and which point the Order of the Phoenix will swoop in and change Speaker Craddick into a blind salamander. A swift motion and vote will be made, vacating him from the chair and installing the newly Salamandarized Craddick as the official Puppet of the State of Texas.

Game. Set. Match.

The Salamander Coup. (0.00 / 0)
I cannot believe I didn't see this coming.

Nose scratching (0.00 / 0)
Pete Gallego keeps subtly scratching the side of the nose.  A secret agent has told me that this is his way of telling the insurgents to call off the salamander coup as the Burnt Orange crew has unfoiled the plan.


Don't worry (0.00 / 0)
That's the signal to call in Juan Garcia's AIr Forces and Rick Noriega's ground troops.

I surely wouldnt want Burnt Orange Report to be missing from the Blogroll list when the insurgency finally takes over and starts their very own blog.
