“So how many little girls did you watch get MANDATED
Gardasil from your RINO-Perry’s Executive order?”

“None. They OPTED OUT. Care to spread any other lies?”

So you now claim she forced the Gardasil even on the children
whose parents tried to ‘opt out’. That is quite serious.

It’s all so much numbers bs.

Figures don’t lie but liars can figure.

Perry wants more local control of schools.

After reading that, “who’s compared to whom” rigmarole, who couldn’t say, ENOUGH!?

So far, readers of the thread see that the RINO Perry
supports the DREAM Act for illegal aliens and
the control of children by HIS RINO Executive Orders.

I didn’t mean to imply anything against you. It’s just that I have seen so many Perry vs. Bush articles since Perry began his campaign that I wonder if it’s part of their strategy. Conservatives have long said it would be a mistake for Obama to run against George Bush. I think Perry’s campaign needs to realize it would be a mistake for them, too.

Thanks for writing back.

It’s inevitable.

I guess being in public life they expect it, understand it and most likely ignore a lot of it.

Sort of a cross between, “When did you stop beating your wife” and “Take my wife, please!”

Someone who came from Mexico 24 months prior pays less tuition than someone from New Mexico.

He might do something truly conservative, like get the Federal government out of education.

Texas academic rates are also pulled down by 10-20% of students having at least one illegal immigrant parent and at least 5% being illegally here themselves. Add in parents who came here to work sending kids to work as soon as able, pulling down graduation rates. The immigration issue is what is killing the education statistics.
And paying for bilingual education and free goodies (free school supplies, food handouts after school, free meals at school) drive up the total education line item.

well if all the ilegal school kids and medical patients left the state most of the head count for workers would be reduced by 50%. At Disd they estimate that your number is about 60% of the student body in grammer schools. They would have empty schools in order to have classes of more than 10.
