As Punishment, They Should be Forced to Stay in Oklahoma

An update on the Dems on the lam:

One answer to the mystery of the Filthy Fifty, the Fire Ants, or, collectively, Waldo--as in the children's book Where's Waldo?--could be found Monday night in an inconspicuous hotel in Ardmore, Okla.

There a group of at least 50 of the 53 missing House Democrats were holed up, just over the state line and out of reach of a Texas trooper manhunt.

"This is not a cowardly act. This takes a great deal of courage and conviction to take steps to make sure democracy prevails," said Rep. Garnet Coleman of Houston, speaking for the exiles.

And this is classic:

Back in the House Chamber, Rep. Dianne Delisi, R-Temple, passed around "most-wanted" playing cards like those the military is using to catch Iraqi leaders. In her deck, made on a computer, Fort Worth Rep. Lon Burnam, a Craddick critic, is the ace of clubs. The Democratic Party is the ace of spades.
