      They certainly seem to care about telling other people they don't care.
      To us, it is the BEAST.

          The thing about pride is that it makes you care about what other people think. And Texans are very proud.

            Ann Richards is the last governor of Texas I can remember who was worth a **** and actually had something intelligent to say.

              Are there any Republican governors in the US that you would describe as "worth a **** and actually has something intelligent to say"?

                There were only three Republican governors of Texas in the last, oh, ~140 years but of those three Bill Clements seems the least objectionable. Mostly because he was in office before the Republican Party went full on ********. Thus he comes off as the reasonable one.

                Given that his competition is George W Bush and Rick Perry that isn't saying much though.

                In other states Chris Christie sometimes actually comes off as reasonable and willing to work for the good of the people of his state plus he has avoided the non-sense his party has pushed in other states like the union busting, the voter suppression attempts, and the near constant Republican desire to force probes into unsuspecting vaginas. That alone makes him more reasonable than 90% of the Republicans out there.

                    I didn't pay much attention (it's New Jersey after all) but my understanding was he did reduce pay, require workers to put more into their own pensions, and cut education spending to help balance the budget but I don't believe he actually tried to pull a Scott Walker where he legally removed worker's rights. That seems reasonable in the face of financial hardship where as removing rights doesn't.

                        So essentially your Texas anger is totally without merit. WTG.
