Republican Party of Texas unintentionally rebukes Straus

"Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap."
Galatians 6:7

Yesterday, RPT released their "Hall of Shame" for Democrat state reps during the recently included legislative session; it included this gem:

• Representative Joe Pickett
Pickett ordered his committee staff to impersonate a Texas resident in order to ambush a Republican colleague, and in the process killed a bill that would have helped end red light cameras in Texas

And how, pray tell, did Democrat Joe Pickett receive the chairmanship of the Transportation committee in the first place?!?

In the Texas House of Representatives, the Speaker appoints committee chairs.

Whether or not RPT wants to admit it, the only reason a Democrat committee chair was able to abuse Republican Jonathan Stickland is because a Republican speaker gave him that chairmanship.
