The more I learn

I am learning more and more about the sleezy side of politics and there is no better teacher than Texas.  Perry, because he is so concerned about the citizens of Texas, is declining to implement the new Healthcare.  Why?  Well, it is just wrong for the citizens of Texas and we need better.  Never mind the fact that the Repugs have had years to fix this mess.  Never mind that Texas ranks dead last  on insured people.  Never mind that Texas has more children uninsured than probably all the other states combined.  Nope.  God forbid we do the right thing by our citizens.  Why?  Because there are no kickbacks to Perry in this.  Perry also pushed through a bill in Texas allowing illegals brought to this country as minors to attend our state colleges on the taxpayer dime.  We can't afford to send our own children to college let alone educate them k-12, now we have to educate half of Mexico too.  It would be so refreshing to see a politician in it for the people.  It would be so nice to see a politician do the right thing just once.  But that damn well will not happen in Texas.
