Bonnen's rope-a-dope strategery

Sometimes the best defense is to simply lean against the ropes and cover up, with the gloves protecting the jaw and nose, forearms and elbows shielding the ribcage.

Then, let your opponent wail on you awhile. Pretty soon, he'll get tired.

Ali did that against Foreman and it worked.

Dennis Bonnen, Our Man in Austin, is following that strategery following the latest attack on his dismal pollution control record -- he just doesn't call any reporters back when they ring him up for comment. That's what the Austin daily is reporting.

Here's Bonnen's thinking, we think. This storm will pass. Hell, this isn't even a storm. These fuckers are ENVIRONMENTALISTS.

While we're on the topic, one of those "report cards" was issued the other day for our state lawmakers, and Bonnen (along with several others) voted right only once on selected environmental bills that were chosen as a litmus test. So he flunked the test. Here's the PDF link for everyone's enviro score.

You'll note that our state senator, Kyle Janek, voted "right" three times on the eviro litmus test.

Does this mean the anesthesiologist is anti-jobs, anti-bidness, anti-Brazoria County? Or does it mean he knows more about the human physiological act of "breathing" than Mr. Bonnen?
