Re: Non-Partisan Fort Worth Council Race
Trey, there’s something even more ironic about Chuck Silcox and his playing the “straight card.” Follow me here: Silcox points to Chris Turner and tells everyone they should vote for him because he likes women. Everyone laughs. Turner is a political consultant. He has a partner named Craig Murphy. Together they run a firm called Murphy Turner Associates. Murphy ran Ed Oakley’s campaign for Dallas mayor. Ed Oakley likes guys. And in that race, when the Heritage Alliance urged everyone to vote for Tom Leppert because he was straight, Murphy cried foul. To me, that sounds like hypocrisy.
Chris Turner, Craig Murphy, and Chuck Silcox, you’re all on notice, gentlemen.

Nice catch.
Thanks for that little Silcox tidbit, guys. Another thing you may not know about Silcox, back in 2000, he helped spearhead the addition of sexual orientation as a protected category under Fort Worth’s anti-discrimination ordinance. It just makes this whole thing that much more puzzling. What happened? Maybe that whole Larry Craig thing tweaked him out.
