It's time once again for the weekly Texas Progressive Alliance blog round-up, again brought to us by Vince from Capitol Annex.
Getting this week off to a great start, we want to thank our friends over at the 50 State Blog Network for taking note of us and mentioning our round-up in theirs.
John at Bay Area Houston thinks it's time to drag Ari Fleisher out of town for using disabled vets in his pro-war commercials.
After the space shuttle safely landed this week, Krazypuppy at Texas Kaos wonders "Who Does an Astronaut Have to Bleep to Get Some Attention From the Media?"
At Bluedaze, TXsharon tell us that Barnett Shale drilling with its insatiable thirst for fresh water is just another kind of blood-for-oil war in "Barnett Shale Drilling: It's not sexy but Noriega for TX US Sen. is!".

WCNews at Eye On Williamson posts on the legal action filed against the Round Rock independent school district for allowing prayer at high school commencements in Graduation Prayer At Three RRISD High Schools Draws Lawsuit.
Todd Hill at Burnt Orange Report talks impeachment. Funny thing is because independent Linda Curtis is working to "Impeach Perry".
Stop Cornyn talks endorsements this week. Watts has picked up a few mayoral endorsements in the Valley and Lt. Col. Rick Noriega is getting the endorsement of some big statewide Democrats Monday. Our chances continue to look good in 2008.
Steve Southwell at WhosPlayin.com finds himself agreeing with a Republican city councilman regarding the government's role in banning smoking in restaurants and bars.
Vince at Capitol Annex continues his exploration of the last days of the 80th Texas Legislature and the events surrounding the resignations of the House parliamentarians and uncovers a smoking gun -- an opinion drafted by former legislator and current parliamentarian Terry Keel days before he was appointed to the post.
Muse muses about 8th graders -- including her own -- who are on the front lines of Texas' education accountability system.
Texas Toad at North Texas Liberal asks some important questions concerning education and a forthcoming campaign for intelligent design in the classroom.
Easter Lemming spots censorship and uncivil airwaves on Houston's radio news. He relates that to the censored radio guest and himself becoming less conservative years ago when exposed to the Wall Street rape of employees in leveraged buyouts.
McBlogger takes some time out of his far-too-busy schedule to bash all the immigrants in Austin.
Half Empty writes about Rick Noriega's Enthusiastic Ovation at the SDEC quarterly meeting this past weekend.
Off the Kuff asks how students can be expected to understand the debate over evolution and "intelligent design" when it's clear that neither SBOE members nor newspaper reporters really understand it.
