The return of King Farouk

Not really. It only seems that way, when every Web site I visit flashes a new “Farouk for Governor” ad at me. Usually with a photo of the Colorado River meandering through downtown Austin. “New Ideas. New Jobs. New Hope for Texas.”

I thought that hope business was passe by now? It’s for sure the Farouk in question, second name Shami, has zero hope of being nominated by the Dems, let alone elected governor. Which is probably good. King Farouk, indeed.
