xdre OP , to Politics in [Analysis] ‘I would do it all over again:’ State Rep. Armando Walle of Houston defends profanity-laced tirade about proposed immigration laws

I think the thing that cut him to the core was that his own "friend" was the one who motioned to end debate, knowing that there wasn't a damn thing the Dems could do to stop the bill in the first place.

Apologies if that comes off as excessively bitter.
