Really, someone worse than this idiot of a governor? He is starting to make Perry look like a genius and that is extremely hard to do.

Go look up Wendy Davis and get back to me. Perry actually did a good job as Governor.
Earth. Go look up Perry's numbers and then get back to me about how he failed as a governor.

Of course don't let statistics get in the way of your myopic thinking!
I clicked on a few of those links and they didn't work.
Perry didn't have a budget deficit, he has a budget surplus. Stop drinking the kool-aid.

"highest per capita gun murder rates in the US"- I'm still laughing that you think that is true.
Why is the #1 ranking for executions bad?
Is it Perry's fault teens don't know how to keep it in their pants? It's laughable to think a Governor has control over teen pregnancy.

- Ranks #50 in $ spent for Medicaid for the poor and children- I am curious where they found that statistic. That certainly isn't the case here.
- Ranks 50th ( dead last ) in $ spent on its citizens- Curious where you found that as well
- Ranks 49th ( the 2nd lowest ) in Medicaid $ given to nursing homes- Curious where you found that as well.
e-rick, wha-hoppened? Arithmetic's a bitch a'int it...
A whole bunch of people never let facts get in the way of their partisan group-think.
