It was reported in the Austin America-Statesman in January that Sen. Kirk Watson (D-Austin) criticized Lt Gov David Dewhurst for not appointing enough Democrats (read it K I R K W A T S O N) to key committees.
Let’s think about this – Sen. Watson is a freshman senator. He serves as Vice chairman of the powerful Transportation and Homeland Security, and he serves on Jurisprudence and Nominations Committees, the Select Committee on Emerging Technologies and Economic Development, the Business and Commerce Committee, and the committee of the Whole.
Just what is freshman Senator Kirk Watson complaining about?
And what is Lt. Gov. Dewhurst doing to make Sen. Watson happy?
If asked on MSNBC by Hardball’s Chris Matthews, chances are Sen. Watson will be left speechless…he’ll have to get back to you.

Kirk Watson is slime. He voted to divert nearly $1 Billion tax dollars to shift our Austin freeways to tollways.
