I think it's "cleaner" now, but when I lived in Austin, I occassionally used to watch the clownish legislature in my slacker life for entertainment. I suppose in any legislature you get the demented sons of the rural powerful and wealthy, but Texas being so big, you get a lot MORE. I wasn't there, but one day the "Chicken King" came to the capitol. He needed a variance in state law passed so he could build a super stinky chicken farm in a place where he wasn't supposed to. He strolled around the legislature, gladhanding and handing out 10k checks to "cash" to willing representatives. He got his chicken farm!
