Richard Antoine Texery O'Hara-Texan is a stereotypical rich, callous but gregarious business owner.

Character History

He is an active member of the Springfield Republican Party and speaks with a heavy Texan drawl. In the fifth season episode “$pringfield (Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)” (his debut), Homer addresses the Rich Texan as Senator, although this was never mentioned again. The Rich Texan sports a bolo tie and a white cowboy hat. He is also obsessive-compulsive, as revealed in "The Seemingly Never-Ending Story." In "Marge's Son Poisoning," he states that he enjoys moonlight walks on the beach; in the same episode, he holds Homer and Moe at gunpoint while forcing them to walk along with him after being conned by the two. He is well known for pulling out a pair of revolvers and firing them into the air while yelling "Yee Haw!" whenever he is happy or excited. In "Pray Anything," he goes over the top and loes his mind after doing something generous for Ned Flanders. He has been to jail at least once when one of his stray bullets hit a Texas Ranger ^[1]. The police made him switch to blanks, but he noted that "They just don't feel the same". In "Midnight Towboy", he revealed he suffers from pogonophobia (the fear of beards and moustaches); he then promptly shoots a man dressed as Santa Claus. He has a gay grandson, as revealed in "Million Dollar Abie", a possible reference to US Vice President Dick Cheney's homosexual daughter. He has a daughter named Paris Texan, a play on Paris Hilton and Paris, Texas. In the episode" Revenge is a Dish Best Served Three Times," it is revealed that he is from Connecticut. This may be a possible reference to George Bush, as he was also born in Connecticut, but acts as though he was born and raised in Texas.
