Friday, March 11, 2011 In The News: Texas Governor Rick Perry Places Blame For Teacher Layoffs On 'Locals'Is there an educator left in Texas who supports Governor Rick Perry? Feel free to comment...pro or con. If you are still on the fence, here are a few quotes from the much more lengthy article below... "We're baffled by Governor Perry's comments," said Dax Gonzalez, spokesman for the Texas Association of School Boards. "Let there be no mistake that the decisions being made in school districts across the state regarding budget cuts and teacher layoffs are the direct results of decisions ... at the state Capitol." School district officials in Tarrant County collectively shook their heads at Perry's remarks. "It causes me much consternation that he would say something like that," said Cindy Lotton, the Keller district's school board president. "There are problems with funding from the state, and the districts have been tasked with cleaning up the mess." A rally on the south steps of the state Capitol on Saturday is being
organized by a coalition called
Save Texas Schools. Planners say they expect as many as 10,000 participants. Posted at 12:21 PM Keywords: In The News , Budget Cuts , Budget , Texas , Teacher Cuts , School Finance 4 Comments |

Tancredo sure is a real manly-man Murkan who rightiously, in a totally Christian way, hates him some Messicans.One wonders, Why the hate?'He must have been dropped on his head by Juanita, his Mexican nanny, when he was a child. Either that, or someone loaded up the pinata with scorpions right before it was his turn.How do you say psychotic in Spanish?And if even more than 1% of the jobs went to recent immigrants, legal or not, it'll be used against Perry. That, and his having a heart' when it came to in-state tuition for their kids, will doom him.I guess the Republican standard unit of measurement when it comes to heart's is that it had better be smaller than the Grinch's which was already two sizes too small.Anything larger than that makes you a Marxist/Leninst/Kenyan Santa Claus in the Hood, Robin money from the white, rich, and deserving, and giving it to the lazy shiftless brown people.Viva La Capitalism Blanco!!!
