Texas blogging

Aziz asks:

Mainly out of simple curiosity, who else is a Texas (political) blogger? Liberal or Conservative, I’m interested in compiling a list.

I think that’s an excellent idea, and I hope Aziz doesn’t mind if I crib it from him. I’ll even put up a link on my sidebar for this.

Here’s what I’ve got so far, from Aziz, his comments, and the bloggers I know of. To qualify, a blog has to be at least somewhat about politics. I don’t know what the threshhold is, so this is totally subjective by me. If you’re on/not on this list and think you shouldn’t/should be, let me know and I’ll make the appropriate update. As an Extra Added Bonus, I’m including an Expats section for known former Texans.

    Boys lets get Hillery ready in 2008. That’s our only chance to get a Demo in the Whitehouse. There will be another Bush running in 2008. You just wait and see.
    Thanks Bud

    Thanks for adding me to your list, I’m surprised I’m just now finding it – I used to have a link to Off the Kuff in my sidebar, and it will be there again…been doing quite a bit of re-arranging. I was harassed by well-meaning friends into removing all of my anti-Bush material, but really, the site traffic has improved tenfold since. Stuck in a GOP stronghold and wanting to get some important info out, it was the only way to go. I have since been invited to network w/ a group of Republicans here who have long been active in removing a particular group of misfits from their party. Very refreshing.

    Craddick’s new Texas district has it all. All of the water: the San Saba river, the Two Llano rivers, the Colorado river, Lake Buckhannan, Lake Ivie, Lake Proctor, Lake Brownwood, and Lord knows how many springs and wells. All of the pecans: the famous San Saba pecan orchards, and the rest of the pecan bottoms and orchards. All of the finest cattle herds, the famous San Saba auction barn, the mason auction barn, and many of the finest ranches in Texas, including Tommy Lee Jone’s ranch in beautiful San Saba, Texas. All of the very finest people who ever walked the face of the earth: the wonderful San Saba people, the Llano people, and the Mason people. And to top off all of the above, the district includes BOTH: LUCKENBACK AND LOWAKE! Did I mention anything about SAN SABA?

  4. Nate Nance says:

    Hi, I just wanted to thank you for adding my blog Common Sense to your list. I feel kind of bad, my blog only has like 5 regular readers (and one is my mom) but I’m still very happy to see it at the top of the page.

    I also occasionally write at Burnt Orange Report which, I think, is one of the best political blogs in Texas. It’s got a great group of guys who write for it and I’m happy I get to post for them every once in a while.

    Thanks for the Herculean effort of sorting and listing all of these blogs. It is an invaluable resource for bloggers and blog readers.

  5. The Monk says:

    Don’t forget me. I am The Monk, one-half the bloggers (and the blog’s founder, creator and writer of the majority of its posts) of The Key Monk, a politics, politics, politics and sports blog. My partner is a New Yorker, but no one’s perfect.

  6. Motherlode says:

    I’m a Texas (Dallas) political blogger, too, and I’ve had you on my blogroll for over a year. Sure would appreciate being included.

    Best regards.

  7. 'stina says:

    How about the Bull Moose? Isn’t he from Waco?

  9. There’s my blog, Nick Schwellenbach. I’m a Texas expat in DC, but will probably return to Austin sometime in ’06. I also blog at the Project On Government Oversight (POGO) Blog.

  10. Arvin Hill says:

    Bitter?

    Yeah, I’m bitter.

    But I’d be happy to be on this list, Kuff.

  11. Ronnie says:

    Very interesting stuff.Here is my blog site.
    Thanks,
    Ronnie

  12. Steve says:

    I am interested in finding any information about a Texas Republican, Jeff Fisher. Looking for both positive and negative information. Very important to obtain this information

  13. Charles,

    Thanks for putting my blog on the list. I didn’t know that anyone was compiling a list of Texas bloggers.

    I would recommend adding
    http://nocapital.blogspot.com/
    rorschach is located here in Austin as well.

    Additionally

    http://first-draft.com/

    Tena and Holden Caulfield are in Texas (Dallas and Austin respectively), but Athenae and Pie are located elsewhere, so I don’t know how they fit into the list.

    http://radnofsky.com/blog.asp

    The above URL directs to a weblog of the activities of an exceptional Texas candidate for the United States 2006 Senate race. Rad-note-sky’s details the events of Barbara Ann Radnofsky’s campaign. Barbara Ann is tired of traditional bi-partisan politics and offers a fresh voice for Texans. She is not a career politician; she is a mother, a teacher, a Houstonian and a professional problem-solver. Ms. Radnofsky wants to serve by occupying the seat that Kay Bailey Hutchison now holds. It is rumored Ms. Hutchison will announce her gubernatorial goals soon.

    Please consider adding Rad-note-sky’s to your list of blogs.

    Thanks,
    S Southern

  15. Cory says:

    I know I not the only one with the sense to see through the hipe,because the polls show I’m in the majority.Truth and family values is what founded this country,and some people seem to have forgotten that.Conservatism is not to the extreme right,it’s the principles our constitution is based on,read up,take a history lesson,or simple seek out the truth.

  16. Your Elected Representative Has A Blog. Well, Maybe.

    I’m not sure how I managed to miss this for so long, but it turns out that Aaron Peña [1] has managed to convince…

  17. One hell of a list. What a great list. We have alot of work to do in the next few years.

    Thanks, Truth Serum

  18. My little blog tilts at the Trans-Texas Corridor boondoggle. It has links to news articles, other blogs, and related web sites.

  19. Step on it again, the legs are still moving

    Sine Die, the last day of sesion, is today. Thank you, Texas Legislature, for making us the laughing stock of the nation, again and for doing nothing meaningful to protect the defenseless and under privileged in this state. Thank you
