Typical leftist politics.

You are very wrong on this one. The sneaky Texas Republicans are trying to "fix" the state so they control it for the next 10+ years regardless of what many of the voters want.
The Republicans are trying to overrule the courts, which already set up the districts for the 2004 election. Republicans are trying to sneak in a new map that is totally biased and will fuck over the people of Texas. It's nothing short of corruption.
Further, the DeLay map looks to try to minimize the influence of some minorities (hispanics and blacks) in the state.
Typical right wing politics.
