They actually have 800 numbers to call in sightings of the missing house members. (DPS number for information on missing lawmakers: 1-800-525-5555) THey hare reportedly fled to Oklahoma, where, as far as I am concerned, they can stay. This is such bullshit. What is going on in my state????

Here's a quick solution... dissolve the Texas legislature and let Gov. Perry rule by decree! Nahhh.... smacks too much of absolute totalitarianism... another excuse for the Democrats to stay at Ardmore, Oklahoma's five-star hotel -- the Holiday Inn!
They stay there too long, they might lose their Texas 'citizenship' (which makes their seat in the legislature vacant) and become -- God forbid -- Oklahoma residents! Hell, make 'em pay Oklahoma state income taxes!
