Okay...Rick Perry, where is an energy relief rebate for Texans? I’d like to see how much money the state of Texas has made off $135/bbl. oil, and I’d like an explanation of why Texas is still charging the state gasoline tax at the pump when many Texans are barely able to drive to work.

And I would like to know how much money the Permanent University Fund has in it, and why middle-class Texas families have to pay tuition hikes every year for their children attending the University of Texas system and Texas A&M system when those two schools get all the money from the PUF. It’s very strange that Texas Tech, which is excluded from the PUF, is not raising tuition this year because they know how strapped Texas parents are, yet these two piggish subsidized systems are raising their rates yet again.

Hell Kitty, Perry wants private donations to rebuild the Mansion. Personally, I think he should pay it himself out of the Foreign toll road contract kick-back monies.

You need to change you state constitution.

The Alaska Constitution

"The legislature shall provide for the utilization, development, and conservation of all natural resources belonging to the State, including land and waters, for the maximum benefit of its people."
