Why? You can't be serious. I thought he was a asset to the city. Alot of people have been guilty of DWI - they just haven't been arrested for it yet!

I'm sorry you can't grasp the concept that public officials should at the very LEAST hold THEMSELVES to a higher standard.

If he was any kind of a stand-up man, he'd submit his resignation without it having to be demanded of him.

But, again, it's Montague county. There's no such thing as integrity in this God-forsaken meth capital of Texas.

Someone should write a letter to the editer and put a request for his resignation in the paper.

What about the CHARGE and CONVICTION of the City of Bowie Fire Marshall who was witnessed assaulting his ex-wife while ON DUTY in HIS OFFICE at the Bowie Fire Department? There was no call to arms for resignation..there was nothing in the paper, radio, or internet...he did not lose or his job even go on administrative leave until all charges and court events were finished and everything went on it's merry way. We do live in America and innocent until proven guilty is still one of our rights.

The Fire Marshall was not convicted of anything. The procecuter in the case dismissed the charge for lack of evidence because he didn't do anything and his ex is a crazy bitch.
now what

The fire marshal was not arrested and their was no probable cause that he assaulted anyone but two state troopers saw Hamilton driving and know that he was drunk. Not the same thing dumb ass.

How is it not the same thing a charge is a charge..your inability to use proper spelling and grammar only brings out the most obvious that you still have no idea what you are talking about...legally a charge is a charge is a charge...and if you did some research both cases are class B misdemeanor so again as I said charged is not convicted.

Well, it may be like his brother, little Rexie poo Hamilton. Many know he provides beer for teenagers at Selma Park on weekends, but so far there is not enough proof to arrest him. Maybe some day.

to CURIOUS::
I don't know where you get your information from, but my husband hasn't been to Selma Park in years. If your information is valid why don't you give your real name and I would love to discuss this in person. Everyone on this site has so much information about the Hamilton's and big enough to express all the knowledge they have. Come clean and use your real names, why are yall hiding??? By the way, how many of you big talkers ever driven while taking medication, that clearly states not to drive while taking. Or better yet, going to dinner, having a drink and then driving home - this list is too long to give all examples. All you people that live in glass houses, step up to the plate and make a difference in Bowie. Run for office be active in the community and keep the Hamiltons from apparently controling your city, county, whatever else you think they control....
The Hamilton's aren't perfect but they also realize they don't live in glass houses and don't throw stones, you never know when one might hit you between the eyes.
By the way, CURIOUS, my name is Carla, Rexie poo's wife......

CURIOUS aka coward

why don't you address all you information at the next city councl meeting since you think this god forsaken hell hole town needs to be cleaned up, instead of hiding behind an anonymous name.
Positive, constructive actions, why don't you try this approach instead of slandering others

I am going to pray for you CURIOUS, I am not mad, I am one to voice my feelings and not be ashamed to put my name by my words.
A Good Friend

Oh bother!!! I can't believe you morons think yall are so much better than the Hamiltons. I speak first hand, because Rex & Carla are VERY good people. They have been there for me during some very troubling times of my own and couldn't ask for more classy, loving, caring, and respectable people. Obviously, you are speaking of another Hamilton in another town. I work in the legal field and a charge is DEFINITELY NOT a conviction. A conviction is when you have been found guilty!!! A "charge" does not go on your record. Pointing fingers does not have merit in law at all. However, stupidity does follow you around for a lifetime. Before you throw a shoe at the Hamiltons, try removing it from your big mouth first! You are all a bunch of classless, nosy ass morons. I am sure your lifestyle has a lot of cleaning up itself. Try cleaning up your own ridiculous lives and stay the hell out of everybody else's that you have no business being in anyway! Let the Lord judge, He is all that matters!

Daily Horoscope for December 15

Cancer

You've got high hopes about someone or something today, and you're confident that everything will turn out well. If a positive attitude is a guarantee of a positive outcome then you have nothing to worry about. But is it? There's a chance that you're being far too optimistic, and confusing fantasy with fact. If so, you'll be in for a big disappointment.
