    Live by Joplin and that place is a gay bastion not commie,
    There is no questioning your knowledge of gay bastions.

    And lol Perry. Secession would have cleared this all up immediately.

    As if Texans taxes dont get pulled into FEMA funding. ing idiot.
    That's true, but if Texas really were its own country, is there any doubt that no Texas version of FEMA would exist?

    I'm sure there's no doubt on your mind.

    If there were any doubt in your mind, you probably would have said so instead of just deflecting and repeating what I said tbh...

    In the end, West will be fine if Gov GoodHair stops grandstanding and pulls some funds out of the budget surplus.
    what budget surplus?

    Texas doens't really have any.

    and not helping Texas poor with health and neonatal care.

    RickyBobby wants to "spend" the surplus on more tax cuts to wealthy and corps

    Also Call Perry a Frkn idiot for not taking federal money for so many things.

    So he is going to make another run for president so he can stand on his own saying we refused 500 billion from the Feds. Our taxpayers will foot the bill Rick, you blithering idiot. Poor people will invariably show up at county hospitals and cannot be denied care. Yet we already paid federal money for this purpose so we get taxed twice? Just watch what happens to Bexar county hospital taxes. Thank you Rick. If our State did not have so much mineral wealth, this clown would be so out on the streets.

    No, the surplus is not a result of reduced spending on education. Get a grownup to read my links to you.
    There's lots of stuff for GoodHair to spend on, probably need to put MHMR on that list as well.

    Perry will not run for the Presidency again.
    And I agree with the premise that if we didn't have oil revenue, no way Perry would still be in office.

    he won't replace the school spending cuts of a few years ago.

    he'll spend on "tax expenditures" luring companies, like gun mfrs, to TX, which almost never pay back to the state or municipality all of the taxes foregone to land them.

    I can see no other reason to refuse Federal money that Texans have already paid into.

    It defies explanation in my mind. I can't come up with anything else.

    There likely won't be much movement on appropriating education funds, outside of formulaic increases, until a new funding system is built.

    His pandering to the Tea Party types is the most likely explanation. Once you lie down in that bed, them fleas are hard to shake off.

    Show me the research for your last statement. I'm pretty sure that on balance, once payroll and employment is factored in, that you are probably mistaken by a couple orders of magnitude.

    Perry and the legislature were on a binge testing diet. They were going to spend money on 15 different tests for students to graduate. With the parental uproar, they peeled it back to 5. How about one that is already taken OUTSIDE of school time. A minimal level SAT score. It's a Frkn no brainer. Perry is in bed with testing companies and so is the legislature, both parties.
