I'd been thinking about posting some summary thoughts on Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst's sad and reckless attack on voting rights and the legislative process. Then I noticed that elliotk had just posted a BOR journal more eloquent than, well, more eloquent than the words of mere mortals.
Isaiah 10
1 Woe to those who make unjust laws,
to those who issue oppressive decrees,
2 to deprive the poor of their rights
and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people,
making widows their prey
and robbing the fatherless.
3 What will you do on the day of reckoning,
when disaster comes from afar?
To whom will you run for help?
Where will you leave your riches?
4 Nothing will remain but to cringe among the captives
or fall among the slain.
Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away,
his hand is still upraised.
