Welcome to the Carpetbagger Blog!

This is the inaugural edition of the Carpetbagger Blog. The Carpetbagger Blog represents all the people of Texas' 22nd Congressional District. I'm here for you guys, blogging about the issues you care about!

The purpose of this blog is to share with you all the importance of re-electing Shelley Sekula-Gibbs to the U.S. Congress and of not letting this ridiculous fellow Pete Olson come in from Washington and steal Shelley's seat with his money and connections. Who is this guy anyway?

You see, Shelley is a fifth generation Texan who has already ably served us in Congress, whereas Pete Olson is a LIFELONG BELTWAY RESIDENT who moved into the district at the last minute just to run for this Congressional seat, which as we know, belongs to Shelley.

Pete Olson did not (1.) Purchase his house, (2.) Register to vote in the district, or (3.) Register to drive in Texas until AUGUST 2007!!! We deserve better! We deserve Shelley!

I'll be back with more later. Re-elect Shelley Sekula-Gibbs in CD22!!!!!
