That should tell you something about the nature of the office. Rick Perry? Imagine Dubya with a 15-point-higher IQ (which means just out of the 'moron' range, but still nowhere near 3 digits), 50% more chutzpah, and about one-fourth the integrity. For bonus points, try to picture in your mind the kind of mouth-breathers who actually <i>voted for </i> this cretin... To those unfamiliar with the leadership of Texas:

I take back any unworthy thoughts I might have had about you. It was all a terrible misunderstanding. We might disagree about how much government is needed to keep the system heathy, but at least we agree there are areas where the government has no business being at all. 1 – This is the first time it has come home to me you may be a genuine conservative, not one of those authoritarian right-wing revolutionary assholes who posture as conservatives these days.

Funny how the Justice Department and the Texas DPS are the ones standing up for privacy on this project. So much for the preference for independent contractors over full-time bureaucrats. the overarching problem here is that it is directly under the authority of the governor’s office, making it inevitable that it will be used as a political tool, if not by Perry, then by someone else.

I also don't trust our screwed up state govt any further than I could throw them As you all know I am a conservative republican and I am the first to say Perry is an idiot and did not deserve to be reelected

I also sell steel across the entire state and (for those who live in Texas ) look on the traffic lights for the small white cameras.Those are all over the state and there not for emergency vehicles ( the small black twin tube device on the traffic light pole is what sees the strobes on the emergency vehicles and changes the light) I see them even in tiny little towns with a crossroads, we are being tracked by vehicle or by plates(Texas is a mandatory front plate state) I don’t really mind it, but I don’t like to be lied to about it.
