As a Texan, I am seriously disappointed that Perry didn’t force the Sanctuary City issue, as this may have been our only chance. He’s not a good choice for Freepers

The TX Legislature meets for 140 days every 2 years. Perry called them back into a special session to address "Sanctuary Cities. The Senate did a "take it or leave it bill" and left it on the House's desk and adjourned. The House leadership was pissed at the Senate's posture and they laughed at the representative pushing it in the House and adjourned too. What do you propose Perry was supposed to do then?

Your misleading here. The Special session had seveal agenda items. To me, Perry feigned support for SC bill, otherwise he and Dewhurst would have cooridinated it better. Again, he blew it.

He’s supposed to do everything, dont ya know. That great conservative principle of having the executive write, enforce, and review laws.

My family was just here from Texas and said Perry has destroyed the education system in Texas. Can you give me some feedback on what they are talking about?
My brother is a lib so I usually ignore what he says, but his wife is a conservative and she agreed. My brother also said that the Texas governor has little power (?), not sure what he is talking about as it does not sound so with the posts I am reading.
