Re: I'm proud of Texas. How 'bout you?

"Much of Texas first lady Anita Perry's $60,000-a-year salary at an Austin nonprofit comes indirectly from Gov. Rick Perry's political donors, state contractors and companies that do business with the state or have issues before the Legislature.

In 2003, the group reported to the Internal Revenue Service that it had received no donations of $5,000 or more, the minimum required to be disclosed in public IRS filings.

In Anita Perry's first year raising money for the nonprofit, major donations jumped to $100,000 with all the money coming from state contractors, lobbyists or donors to the governor's political account.

All told, more than 70 percent of the $634,500 in large donations given to the group between 2004 and 2009 came from businesses or individuals with ties to the governor. The group has not yet filed its formal statements with the IRS for 2010"

Yeah, there are a couple of things here, including him walking elbows-out of the sausage factory cooler, that are not even funny anymore because they look like a non-funny spoof of a gay politician from a bad skit show, so I really don't know where to go from here.
