I was out with the Fort Bend Silver Democrats at a Cinco de Mayo event to register voters and to support some candidates for the local school board who are being opposed by some unqualified candidates being backed by the tea party. Congressman Pete Olson showed up and stopped by our booth. He had a grumpy look on his face because the local GOP chapter had paid for a booth but did not show up. I could not help myself and showed him a bumper sticker given to me by Juanita Jean herself that stated that 'PERRY SUCKS" Susan Bankston got this from the Obama Store Here is a button that is similar

Petie Olson was not amused and after a couple of seconds to think about it, he responded with the rather lame phrase
Nancy Pelosi sucks
This was the best that Olson could come up with after thinking about the matter. Later Pete read his speech to the Cinco De Mayo event off a note card and it was truly sad. Pete is not a public speaker and his speech was really lame even for a republican.
The good news is that we registered some voters and got some people to sign up for the next party event
