    Annise is a Hero and in Jeb Bush’s State too. This is a foot in the door of Texas society and a positive one. The Media appose anything they think will generate public interest by kicking it around….Bastards!

    Annise Parker congradulations from down under, Australia – but Texas is still untra-conservative and still has “homosexual conduct” listed and writtne in the Texas Penal Code, even after the 2003 Lawrence v. Texas case!!!!
