If you are not from Texas you may not have heard about the Democrat lawmakers who are hiding out in Ardmore, OK, in order to prevent the Texas legislature from achieving a quorum and voting on a redistricting plan put forth by Tom Delay. There are others who can tell the story better than me, so read Charles Kuffner's posts at the Political State Report and also on his own site. You can read more about it here and of course you need to read Molly Ivin's comments.

I don't know whether to laugh or to scream in terror about that whole affair. Carrick is handling it so bizarrely and the talk of getting the FBI involved is downright frightening. It puts law enforcement in the position of forcing people to stand by while evil legislation is passed.

To my point of view, The Democrats are doing the equivalent of Deriliction of Duty and should be punished or arrested. The are simply obstructing the legislative process.
