Rick Perry Lied about the Distance between himself and the $4.5 Million Handout

New add for Bill White.

Bill White to Rally to Restore Competence

Yep, October 19th on the University of Texas campus.

Perry is hiding finance records and stealing from you

This is exactly why the Republicans love this guy.  It's just another day at the office of Rick Perry stealing the people's money.

But Perry has some nerve in so stridently calling for White to come clean and even refusing to debate White because he hasn't released income tax returns from more than a decade ago.

Perry is today hiding financial records that are much more recent and more relevant to Texas taxpayers.

He's refusing to tell us to whom he is giving millions of dollars of our money.

Last Sunday the Dallas Morning News reported that the state's Emerging Technologies Fund, which is controlled by the governor, has awarded more than $16 million to start-up companies whose investors have given hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions to Perry. According to the Morning News:

ThromboVision Inc., a Houston company, won a grant for $1.5 million. Investor Charles W. Tate has given more than $424,000 to Perry.

Terrabon Inc., also of Houston, was awarded $2.75 million. Investors include Perry friend Phil Adams, who has given the governor at least $314,000.

Gradalis Inc. of Carrolton received $1.75 million. Its investors include Dr. James Leininger, who has given more than $264,000 to Perry.

Carbon Nanotechnologies Inc. of Houston was awarded $975,000 from the fund. Investors included William A. McMinn, who has given $152,000 to Perry.

There were more.

Now all you Texas Tea Party people...do you approve of this or are you a bunch of hypocrites?

Did I mention the $21 Billion deficit?



Enough to make the worst person in the world....

Bill White is one fine "Padre"

In "Padre," Elena White stands next to her father and tells members of the Hispanic community about her father and the values and morals he has instilled in her.

It has come down to this...

Texas run by imature school child

Bill reminds Texans of Perry...

Houston, Texas (CNN) – Bill White, the Democratic nominee for governor in Texas, compared Gov. Rick Perry on Wednesday to an  imature school child who refuses to take responsibility for his actions.

Dick DeGuerin on Perry and political favors..."that's criminal, plain and simple"

Via BOR...

Preeminent Texas criminal defense lawyer Dick DeGuerin weighs in

Perry handed out $16 million in taxpayer dollars from a high tech fund to companies tied to his top political contributors.

"This is the kind of thing a Public Integrity Unit ought to investigate. If the fundraisers promised or suggested that grants would go to political donors and then that happened, that's criminal, plain and simple," said Dick DeGuerin.

DeGuerin has defended Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison and Representative Tom DeLay and was recently named one of the 25 Greatest Texas Lawyers of the Past Quarter Century.

The Texas's prison system is overcrowded, but I'm willing to let a weak marijuana case go home and throw in a $16 million thief.

Is that the best he can do?

Some think Rick Perry's new Border ad is pretty good. Some may think Perry passing blame for this issue after ten years in office is pretty darn good. Other's may think it's slick confronting Barack Obama by passing a love note during a five second photo op. That's hard work. But not really...

The only thing missing from this ad is Rick's ten gallon hat,  a silver six shooter and a dead coyote.

Is Perry a coward to face voters on $21 billion budget deficit?

Yes he is!

From Back to Basics...

Big news--we're running this full-page ad demanding Rick Perry "Face Us", the people of Texas, in over 41 newspapers across the state today. We're calling Perry out on his cowardice to face voters in an open debate, and his refusal to even acknowledge the looming $21 billion budget deficit in our state. Check our websi...te at www.perryisacoward.com to see if the ad is in your newspaper!

Time to Respect Texas Rick Perry

Hey, Rick. Spit out the truth and quit hiding behind your phony excuses. We're not buying your BS any longer. Answer to the people of Texas.

Vote for Bill White, Dammit!!

Just had to get that off my chest!

Hey wingnuts, don't let the door hit you in the ass

Ok...today's poll claims 50% of republicans want Texas out of USA. Good, but we'll keep our state and these clowns can try to buy back Louisiana or something wacky like that.

Houston, we have a problem...what to do with the dunce?

Yes...there's more than one.

Right wing nuts lead me to blog again...really

DCCC Releases New Ad on Pete Olson Being Investigated for Voter Fraud (TX-22)

Come Clean Pete!

DCCC Press:

The DCCC released a new television advertisement today on Republican candidate Pete Olson (TX-22) being investigated for voter fraud. A Virginia Prosecutor recently opened an investigation into Pete Olson's voter fraud, which was committed when Olson voted in two states in 2003.
