The Congressman representing Angelina and Tyler Counties, Louie Gohmert (R, TX-1), has rolled the clock back 200 years and proposed the "retrocession" or return of almost all of the District of Columbia to the State of Maryland. I'm sure Mr. Gohmert will next discuss retrocession of Angelina and Tyler Counties to the Alabama-Coushatta People.... 14882@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Thu, 19 Apr 2007 08:25:50 EDT
