Tadslos, they took Texas’ money and Perry got it back.
Taking federal education money in Ohio does not mean that Kasich supports the department of education.
It means that, until he can change it, he’ll use the system that’s currently in place.
Unilateral disarmament is a dumb, dumb idea.
I’m not referring to Federal stimulus money. I’m referring to Texas taxpayer money being used to subsidize businesses within the state for contractual promise of jobs as part of his ETF and TEF programs. Rick is failing to apply sound due diligence with Texas taxpayers money while taking campaign contributions from some of the benefactors of his programs. Rick’s no better than Obama in this case. He certainly isn’t applying conservatism to that effort. Rick’s just another big government spending RINO.
That's a great point. Also, circular firing squads and fragging are poor offensive maneuvers on the battlefield.
Perry was very good during the Stimulus nonsense on "unfunded mandates." Does anyone remember that? Part of the "secession" talk was spun out of that debate. Where Perry was trying to "refuse federal money" which pols everywhere pilloried him for.
Except the position he took was that he was refusing stimulus money when it was a short term FEDERAL infusion that would then require STATE FUNDING when the federal money inevitably ran out.
Yeah. But I'm with the Perry-haters here I guess....if he can't beat that point into peoples' heads, then I can't do much for him either.
