Seems to me that our beloved governor, who I greatly respect, needs to check things in his own back yard, huh! I’m very glad to see all these new businesses come here. We must be doing something right.

However, they can leave the liberals back in California, etc. Right? :)

I guess you haven’t been keeping up with the Rosemary Lehmberg saga. It is big news here, since it is the Travis county DA. She got 45 days in lockup, but will probably only serve 15, since she will get 3 for each day with good behavior.

She said there is no way she will step down, since Gov Perry would likely appoint a Republican. The Travis county has the power to investigate state office holders. The local dims are calling on her to resign. If she won’t Perry can assign that job to the State Atty General. Gov Perry is looking at all options.

Austin is building bike lanes and passed an ordinance that cars must stay three feet from bikes and trucks must stay six feet away. Austin PD made a video from a dashcam showing an officer crossing a double solid yellow line to give the bike room. Break a DPS law to obey a city ordinance is stupid.

Yep...put a Dem in charge of ANYthing, and you get stupidity! That bike lane law is just nutty...no other way to put it! Geez!

I haven’t heard much about that, but I hope Gov. Perry exercises his right to remove and replace this stupid cow. She is selfishly holding on to her position...she has NO love for the people she represents or she would see that she is only doing harm while she’s being so stubborn and self-serving!

I’ll try to keep with other developments here. Austin has been wondering why they are losing businesses. They are that dense.

It’s funny how Austin is completely out of touch with the rest of the state! I’m glad Perry is more accessible.

I don’t know how those “tolerant and feel-gooder” libs live with themselves. LOL! They seem so miserable all the time!...and want everyone else to be, too. Well, I got news for them! We ignore and go on being REAL Texans! :)

Pflugerville is about to get a major economic boost. The world’s first precision-guided firearm manufacturer is moving to the city.

Tracking Point Inc. manufactures a high tech firearm that allows a person with a few minutes of training to become skilled marksman.
