Politics

  Lubbock is not competitive as politics go. Republicans rule the "roost" for the time being. Carl Tepper is now wanting to hold an republican executive committee meeting in Slaton,a "third world" type town. In another event a libertarian turned republican,Brian Thornton,will hold a "liberty" seminar with Mikel Ward as guest speaker at the Mahon Library later this month on a Saturday. In other semi-political news IHateLP&L committee will meet somewhere to discuss how to "vent" their hatred,legally. Those poor souls are from several political parties and their names I will not reveal. Carl Tepper is talking up precinct chair duty hoping someone will fill empty chairs on the executive committee for the (R)epulsive Party of Lubbock. Recall petitions are still in circulation for Floyd Price and other "slimebags" at City Council could see their names on recall petitions in the future.
