My teabagger Congressman is coming to town on Tuesday...

[TexasTowelie]

and I'm thinking about attending the Blake "Ducky Jamas" Farenthold town hall. Since I might decide to take one for the team, I'm willing to gather some input as to questions that I might ask.

On the serious side:

According to the EWG Farm Subsidies database, between 1995-2012 the government has paid over $13 billion in subsidies to rice cooperatives. The president and secretary of state have recently reestablished diplomatic relations with Cuba which could provide a sizable market for exports of the rice crop in this district. Are you in favor of extending the charter of the Import-Export bank to help provide loans to Cuba so that both countries benefit by facilitating free trade and reducing agricultural subsidies in the US?

On a lighter note:

Pantone has disclosed its color palette for autumn 2015. Are you going to incorporate that color palette into your Halloween wardrobe and what is your favorite color for fall?

Has Senator Vitter provided any tips about the escort services in DC?

Further suggestions are welcome, but note that I do not want to get arrested at the event. Thanks in advance.

3. i think hobbit forgot to put his reply in quotes

For Texas Towelie to ask Congresscritter Ducky. I don't think hobbit meant the comment towards TT.

4. Exactly!

Hobbit sent me a PM explaining that the jury made a mistake thinking that "you" was referring to me personally. Hobbit has always been polite to me and we trade humorous replies with each other frequently. I'm going to post a question in the ATA forum to remove that jury hide from his record.

6. That's the chance I will take if I ask the serious question.

"X-M Port Bank--never heard of that chain."

I suspect that I'll not only blow him away with that question, but the rest of the audience also. However, if any of the farmers attend I might get tar and feathered.

I'm hoping to take some notes and provide a report either Tuesday night or Wednesday.

7. Pantone colors crack me up

It's not purple, it's "radiant orchid". It's not wine, it's "Marsala".

One year I'd like them to mess with everyone's heads and say "The color of the year is ...... YELLOW"

not daffodil, sunflower, butter or lemon, just YELLOW.

8. I'm still waiting for

"thermonuclear radioactive glow."
