You said it Senator Whitmire! The governor's office is scrambling against the backlash of the veto on funding for community colleges in the state. To rub salt in the wound, he basically accused community colleges of fraud. As usual when Perry goes off half-cocked, he's busy backpedaling with creative ways to get himself out of trouble. Unfortunately, every time he tries it just makes matters worse.
In a committee hearing yesterday, the governor's plan to restore the money to community colleges was announced before a bewildered crowd. The lead accountants from Enron must have helped him come up with this plan. Here were a few options laid out:
All of you groups and agencies that get any money from the state better start practicing your "Yell" because all you little meek mice are about to get your money taken away. I am available as a Yell Leader in case you need one. I may not have gone to A&M, but I did grow up on dirt road and I can raise a ruckus!
i'll be a yell leader for 10% of any of the money the agency is able to keep.
hahaha..."without a vocal constituency"....
that's friggin funny...I mean, at least we are being completely honest
who else loved it when armbrister lost his cool and snapped at the entire room, "is that funny?!" after they all began laughing.
why were they laughing? because armbrister said the gov's door "has always been open."
niiiiice.
