I did not mention you. Just him. Raising taxes like he did is in my mind not conservative. I think he is a politician first, last and always. He will do whatever he thinks can keep him in power. He is not alone in that in Austin and I am talking about both parties. There were better ways to fund schools but that would have meant going against the lobbiest with he appears unwilling to do.
Keep in mind something that was said, on camera by a state senator doing the special sessions last year. He was asked why a bill had not been passed to fund schools then. He said, "We could not come up with a bill that the lobbiest would approve of." That is but one of many reasons I have a low opinion of most of the politicans in Austin.
