Rep. Gene Taylor - Patriot

My wife and I lived in Biloxi, MS for five years during the late 80’s early 90’s. The Republicans did a good job of letting their ugly side out yesterday. First with the shabby treatment given to Vice-President Gore during the global warming hearings then with the shameful way they were going to attempt to treat the Katrina victims. Representative Taylor got our blood going and he deserved and received the support from his fellow democrats along with a ‘standing o’. He got one here at home, too.
