Comptroller Carole Keeton Strayhorn Asks Perry to Call Special Session

HA! I was right! Strayhorn announced today a $1.2 Billion surplus in the budget and asked the governor to call a 3-day Special Session for Disaster Relief as tens of thousands of Hurricane Katrina refugees pour into Texas.

In addition the Comptroller's office announced a waiver on the statewide occupancy tax on hotels for those survivors of Katrina making their way to Texas.

Your ball, Perry.

And P.S. Texas totally rocks with how we're stepping up to the plate.

Perry sucks! :)

I'm definitely voting for "One Tough Grandma"
