A “damn governor” - in Texas, we’d be polite and say “doggone” or “durned” - or at least grammatically correct and add the “-ed” -can certainly run an economy into the ground and he or she can get out of the way of business, keep the legislature from over regulation, over taxation, and spending all the money so that the State has to constantly come back for more taxes in order to pay to regulate, etc.
Governor Perry has protected the economy, he’s protected our legislative and electoral processes, and he’s done it in Texas, where every *doggone* one of us is a cowboy. (Won’t have trouble at all with sheeple.)
Socialist run the economy in a socialist country, in a free market government is a drain on the free market. And anyone that supports a socialist country need to move to north korean and take up grass eating.
