TransGriot Note: This is the original text of the speech I'm delivering at this moment in the Gallagher Theatre on the University of Arizona campus.

Good evening University of Arizona students, faculty, alumni, guests and friends.  I bring you greetings from the Lone Star State, my beloved hometown of Houston and the communities I interact with.

I have to tell y'all that some of my friends were concerned when I announced I was coming to the UA campus because of what they've heard about Sheriff Joe Arpaio.  I told them to chill and I'd be fine because I would be amongst friends.   I pointed out that Tucson and Pima County is pretty much liberal-progressive turf and the home of Sheriff Clarence Dupnik and former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
