Written by Harold Cook, Letters From Texas is a humorous look at politics and current events, as seen through the eyes of a progressive Texan in a bad mood.
"A freaking riot.... Kudos to Harold Cook."
Evan Smith
Editor-In-Chief
Texas Monthly Magazine
"Harold Cook may be hazardous to your health…I have very real concerns that this blog is dangerous to the physical safety of Texas progressives."
Mary Mapes
Former Producer
"60 Minutes" - CBS News
"...our favorite political soothsayer and comedy stylist (well, next to Karl Rove)..."
Wayne Slater
Senior Political Writer
Dallas Morning News
"Harold Cook, who once tried to run over one of my reporters with a van full of senators, has now decided to run over everyone in sight with his new blog...."
R.G. Ratcliffe
Capitol Bureau Reporter
Houston Chronicle
"[Cook] is just twisted. And I mean that in the nicest way possible. Sort of. Laugh uproariously when it's really freakin funny .... And shake your head, eyes covered, when it's just too...too...too."
Karen Brooks
Capitol Bureau Reporter
Dallas Morning News


What a terrific find.
And, considering all the places I’ve lived, I guess I’m pretty fortunate to have avoided: dropping out of high school, becoming homeless, having inappropriate relationships with animals, contracting gonorrhea, and dying in a car crash (drunk or sober).
(Although all that is eerily similar to the plot of my unpublished novel.)
@Brad – I so want to read that novel.
