Texas Redistricting

How does one Austin Citizen feel about the new plan:

I can now look for new and exciting ways that the needs of somebody in East Austin perfectly fits together in Madisonian enlightened self-interest with those of a guy 300 miles away in Rio Grande City, on the Texas-Mexico border. Ditto to my North Austin neighbors, who must have so much in common with the suburbs in the west of Houston, nearly 150 miles away.

You have done the citizens of Texas proud in ways that I cannot count. May the weight of a thousand appellate briefs be placed on pressure points around your genitalia for the rest of eternity.

Plenty more detail at the Burnt Orange Report here and in preceding posts.
