Now We Get It, Senator Cornyn! Kiss Enough Ass, and One Day You Can Help Your Constituents

Sen. John Cornyn, forgive us voters of Texas if we’ve seemed skeptical during your nearly 18 years in office. Some of us still aren’t sure what you actually stand for. After all, you seem to have reinvented yourself more times than David Bowie.

In 2002, plenty of us figured you’d be the perfect fit for Phil Graham’s vacated Senate seat. Back then, you were the sensible chamber-of-commerce Republican with the law degree and the hearty endorsement of President George W. Bush. We’re sure your nice suits, square jaw and stately demeanor also had some part in closing that deal.

You managed to stay with that look for a while, although the “stately” part sure took a hit when you aired your “Big Bad John” TV spot in 2008. Face it, you look more comfortable in starched shirts than rustler duds. We know you dusted that ad off again at a recent GOP gathering, but let’s just call the cowboy getup a failed experiment.
