Charlie Wilson's War
A quote by Gus Avrakotos (CIA) in "Charlie Wilson's War" explaining his
relationship with Wilson: "What brought us together was chasing pussy and killing communist". And I ask, could there be a more noble pursuit? Another interesting point was that the Russian Hind choppers had killed so many of the transport mules that the CIA had to buy mules and ship them to the front. Even sent some good Tennessee mules. There were some protest when it was found that, and I know of no nicer way to put this, the Afghans were having sex with the mules we sent them. All was cleared up when they learned that it was socially acceptable to have sex with a mule as long as one assumed the proper position. No shit! Remind me to carry Smith's box of rat poison it I ever go over there! Bill Clarke |

My chase of the women was always oiled by a liberal dose of booze but my chase (timid as it might have been) of the communist was done cold stone sober. I knew it wuz more fun chasing women and now you've pointed out the reason. Thank you, thank you very much. Bill Clarke Under the Southern Cross |

Temple is straight as an arrow and I assume Charlie was too until he got to the capital and quickly went to hell. He was a hotdog, which doesn't appeal to me, but there was also a bit of the populist in old Charlie that I admired. He did a lot of good for people in the district. Did you know Charlie was born and raised in the big city of Trinity? And speaking of Trinity I'm wondering if Huntsville and Walker County was still dry when you was there? I be hanging, buddy. It helps to be back home with folks that speak the language. And don't let me forget to remind you to send me something in a couple of weeks. Thanks. Bill Clarke |

And oncet the GOP gets done with their current remaking of the political map, there ain't no telling about what districts are where. My own district will run from Austin to the Mexican border, a distance of about two hundred miles, and at its narrowest is about a mile wide. You oughta see that sumbitch laid out on a map; looks a little like an anaconda with a real slim gut and a bulge at each end. > > He was a hotdog, which doesn't appeal to me, but there was also a bit of the > populist in old Charlie that I admired.

In the long run I reckon they did more good than harm. But they did leave a certain amount of wreckage in their wakes. > > Did you know Charlie was born and raised in the big city of Trinity? And > speaking of Trinity I'm wondering if Huntsville and Walker County was still dry > when you was there? I had heard of Charlie's Trinity upbringing, but forgot it until you reminded me. And yes, Huntsville and Walker County were indeed dry when I got there in 1967, although towards 1972 or thereabouts they came to their senses. We used to take that drive north on TX Hwy 19 to get a case or two of a certain high and mighty beverage, about once a week. I still have some Jim Beam china decanters I got back then, which my children are sure are worth a fortune these days. They ain't. But the contents were priceless. Trinity County was wet, and was surrounded by dry counties as far as the eye or speedometer could see. Package stores were a cottage industry in that town. I wish I could recall the name of the BBQ and beer joint on the left side of the road, just before you hit town. We used to hit that place at least once a week, after a round of golf at SHSU's country campus. Do you recall that little number, just north of Huntsville? WWII barracks buildings, which once upon a time had housed German POWs, and in later years were married housing for agricultural grad students. > > I be hanging, buddy. You'd best be, or somebody'll be hollering for you to grab pooch. (Miss Rita, don't ask. I couldn't possibly elaborate.) ted fighting the demons |

Oh yeah, even had a Polk County boy on his staff and had a woman here that did not much but campaign for Charlie by taking care of the old folks here in the county. >the GOP gets done with their current remaking of the political map, >there ain't no telling about what districts are where.

I hope Tom DeLay, that fearless warrior, and Rick Perry have to eat shit over this power grab. Rural Texas has pretty much lost what little voice it had. God help school funding with these dickheads running things. >town. I wish I could recall the name of the BBQ and beer joint on the >left side of the road, just before you hit town.
