[Al Edwards]' legislative career may have peaked in his first session in 1979, when he authored the bill that created the Juneteenth holiday. He's spent the past quarter-century reminding everyone about it. The Web site of Edwards' Juneteenth USA nonprofit proclaims the holiday is "thanks to Texas state Representative Al Edwards." He was named chairman in perpetuity of the Texas Emancipation Juneteenth Cultural and Historical Commission (that's the TEJCHC), a state agency created in 1998 through a bill authored by you-know-who. The commission is charged with building the recently finished Juneteenth memorial, which contains a statue of a "lawmaker" figure with a face that happens to resemble a certain former state rep from Houston.

As the Democrats and Republicans return to the House floor from separate caucus meetings, Republican Tommy Merritt of Longview gives his account of the GOP caucus to reporters. Chairman Larry Taylor, he says, "reported to us that he offered a deal to the Democrats and the [Republican] caucus turned him down." As if on a schoolyard, fellow Republican representatives, unhappy with this disclosure, surround Merritt, taunting him, calling him a "minority of one" and shouting, "You're not speaking for us!" (It will later turn out that Merritt's account is accurate.) Once the chubbing resumes, Senfronia Thompson, D-Houston, gets on a caffeine-themed roll, repeatedly referring to herself as "coffee" and her white Republican colleague, Mike "Tïffy" Hamilton of Mauriceville, as "cream," elaborat...
