Governor Rick Perry of Texas is embarrassing his home state by denouncing the US government and talking about secession.
The fact that Texas gets much of its contribution to the US government back in government programs and aid seems to have not crossed the tiny brain of this disgraceful governor, who is by his rhetoric promoting a bad image of his home state and also encouraging secessionist radicals who in the recent past threatened violence and caused the then governor George W. Bush to take action against what he considered a dangerous breakaway movement in Texas in the late 1990s.
The people of Texas have the ability to remove Perry from office next year after ten long years under this incompetent governor, and it can be hoped that he will soon no longer be able to promote a bad image of the number two state in both population and land area. Texas once disgraced itself by being part of the secession that led to the Civil War. We do not need a repeat performance of that disgraceful event!
