Yet another rocket scientist as governor in Texas:
Rick Perry's College Transcript: A Lot Of Cs And Ds
Is it a requirement for Governor of Texas to be dumb as rocks?
Ann Richards was the last Texas governor worth a damn
You forgot about the great GW Bush. Friend. He was also governor of TEXAS.
You forgot about the great GW Bush. Friend. He was also governor of TEXAS.
You're missing the point. He said "the last Texas Governor worth a damn". Not the most stupid governor. But then, you're a product of the Great State of Texas' public school system. So how do you know anything?
Actually pal, I'm a product of the wonderful tax breaks given to my wealthy parents by our wonderful governor/president the illustrious mr. Bush that allowed my education to be given to me by wonderful private institutions.
Guess what bro, I'm not a rich kid. My parents have money, I'm broke as shit. How ignorant can you be to imply, without knowing me, that my parents are not working class? The money that has trickled down from grandparents grandparents that have bought land, businesses, and paid for generations of education were not paid for with much blood, sweat, and hard work. The ability to make sound decisions, put in long hours, and be fiscally responsible is one that is available to EVERYONE! Just because my family chose to make their own way through life. Also, you can consider it luck that on a several thousand acre tract owned by my maternal grandmother happens to have a lot of oil underneath it. And on another stroke of genius, when her grandfather bought it he had enough foresight and forward thinking to secure the mineral rights at the time of purchase.
I was being entirely facetious about tax breaks funding my education. It was entirely my parents money.
So, I really can't say we swing from the government tit. We might fill it up so others can drink.
I don't know what you're saying about brick city, idk what that is.
Also, keep in mind, that a couple hundred or so years ago, we were ALL poor. As dirt. And everyone's education sucked. Some people just chose to put in the effort to rise from that.
The point I was trying to convey, was just that we all started from the same starting line. And anything I or my family has is a product of hard work. When did Americans start being persecuted for ambition and perseverance?
I replied.
Two things: Mr. Perry's baggage is huge, and while he can hide it all in Texas, once out in the open he'll never surpass it. Secondly, the Texas Public School system can hold its own quite well, thank you very much. I am a product of the system and graduated with a 3.8. I also made a 4.0 all four years of college. Please peddle your propaganda elsewhere. It's fun to generalize, but it makes one look stupid in the end.
