Moonbeam and his friends seem to think working Californians & businesses will suffer his idiocy indefinitely because of the nice weather.

I look forward to seeing the democrats completely fail the state, and they will, even in spite of the personal hardship it will cause.

I’ve never been to Texas and I know it is damn hot in many parts of the state, but here’s my question -— aren’t there cities in Texas where the weather is more temperate most of the year?

No it is miserable down here... Either cold and dry, cold and wet, hot and dry, or hot and humid.

I don’t know about the weather in Texas, but we have had California business relocate in Missouri for over 20 years.

Been there a couple of times & can vouch for the heat - and humidity in Houston - but don’t know if there are any more moderate areas.

Perry needs to get home, close the borders and have a chat with J Brewer to find out what kind of testosterone suppps he should be on to enable him to say no to open borders and IDs for illegals.

He can invite Rubio in for the meeting.

Texas does not need blue staters messing with it.

And if they do come, if they could take an effing traffic safety course. . .

The ad goaded Governor Jerry Brown into telling reporters that Perry’s effort wasn’t news. “It’s not a burp,” he sneered. “It’s barely a fart.”

Classy guy that Governor Moonbeam. Meanwhile he and the legislature drive business out of the state willy-nilly. What will happen when California defaults?

No, west TX is more a dry heat and east is humid (I’ll take the dry). I’m a native Californian; moved to TX at 17 w/ my parents where I stayed many years; moved back to CA for about 15 yrs; couldn’t take the libs anymore and moved back to TX last year. The weather is the main thing I don’t like about TX as I hate the heat in the summer. But everyone has an air conditioner and it’s affordable to run them.

Houston's heat and humidity are pretty much tolerable for most of the summer, which runs from early February to mid-December.

But both get completely intolerable in August, which is our second season down here.

Seriously...the weather is horrible here. Don't bother coming. You probably wouldn't like it at all. Unless you like flying cockroaches the size of starlings.

I know I wouldn't.

Which is why I'm staying put and instead am going to tell all of my nitwit liberal neighbors about all the jobs, theater culture, diverse cuisine and miles of bikepaths you guys have down there.

Humidity is a normal thing if you live near the Gulf Coast.

The may complain about heat and dust in West Texas, or even an ice storm blown in with a Northern, but the don’t really complain about humidity in the desert very often.

A friend of mine who lives in Silicon Valley is looking hard at moving to Texas. As of last year, he had no intention of moving because while he didn’t like the kooky left nonsense, the jobs and area was too good. However with the coming new anti-gun crap, he’s been pushed too far and is looking to bail.

Tell him to pay no attention to the anti gun crap & stay put.

He won't be the only person here to ignore any unconstitutional garbage emanating from Sacramento.

The libs always move with their businesses. Once they’re here, they try to take over and turn us into exactly what they left behind. If there ever was a question of me voting against Perry next time, this sealed my vote for the other guy.

LOL, yeah, trying to add business and their jobs to the state is just a horrible act.
