After some quick searching on the internet I found the follwing facts (some from the first article you listed)

1. After 5 year old Riya Wilson was discovered to be missing, Gov. Bush ordered the department to see ALL children in the agency. This apparently lead to the list of "1,000" missing children

2. 401 were runaways. Do you think that Gov. Bush is responsible for preventing teen runaways? And that children's services should prevent all runaways?

3. 135 were taken by non-custodial relatives. Doesn't that make it a law enforcement issue and do you really expect DCS to prevent every divorced parent from EVER taking a kid?

4. 421 were placed in OTHER STATES, and the OTHER STATES caseworkers had not checked them. Is it your position that Gov. Bush is now responsible for child care in all 50 states?

5. Gov. Bush signed new legislation strengthening requirements for caseworkers to report timely and accurately on child visits, including penalties for falsifying forms.

6. Gov. Bush set up a Blue - Ribbon panel to review the states child care system and make recommendations for further improvement.

Guess all that is nothing huh? I notice all you do is quote one liberal who is not satisfied with anything.

Excellent post. These "errors or failures" in reporting...these outright lies...these lowdown campaign practices need to be countered with the facts.

Democrats/liberals think they can get away with it, because for too long...they have gotten away with it.

Thanks for the facts.
