No, I am not.

If he signs it.....I'll flame his a-- like a cheeseburger!

I'm just saying...until he does or does not.....we can't go blaming him for Dewhurst's sham. Even newspapers around the state are starting to report the reality that this was not Perry's plan.

But again.....if he rides along....he catches h-ll with the rest. But it is not warranted...until he rides along.
Like you....we all have our doubts.....can't help to have them...after seeing what the legislature has done.

Hey....I am upset about this stuff as much as the next guy.
I threw a lot of support to Dewhurst when he ran for LT Gov., thinking he would hold the line on what he was selling. I was wrong.

Tonight....I saw a person I know who works for one of the State Reps who voted for HB 3 (the school finance tax madness). I was sure to bring the fact that person's boss may be getting an increase for Pension...while grabbing more tax dollars from us.

That person was not amused. Oh well.....word is...that Rep might not run in the 06 anyway.

And with the tax crap......that Rep would lose in primary against a decent candidate anyway.

In the end....I think we will still get screwed, no matter how hard Perry might or might not go against it.

There are many in the current legislature who lack a spine.

We are on the same page here with the exception that you prefer to sit back and wait, I suppose in some battles that may be the smart tactic, My contention is that it has gotten to where it is because Perry doesn't have enough Ass (Gravitas for you folks out in Rio Linda) to stop it. He needs us to do that for him, he has not asked us, he is still a WIMP!

He is real good at spending, Taxing and spending more. More disturbing is he immediately pushed every known "Mafia Scam" ie Light Rail, Fluoride, Garbage Contracts on and on which is normally reserved for those "known" to be corrupt like Mayor Daley or either of the Clintons for maximum personal kickback, then he went a step further with Out of Country Tax payer paid for Toll Roads (Kofi would have loved that one) as soon as he got into office.

I believe Perry is in it for the short haul, Perry is going to collect his Cash and get out.

I am Old School, if found guilty he deserves a fine looking Oak Tree and a good rope, if he is just a wimp, a swift kick in the ass, a very public dismissal and we can start to undo what he has done, prosecuting every enabler along the way.

I will leave it up to you to find some redeeming value in this Clown.
