Well, in Perry's defense, the Bahamas probably have a better educational system than Texas.

something's wrong with the system when if I take money/gifts/services from one of my suppliers my corporation fires me for unethical behaviour. but then my corporation can and does give money/services to elected politicians.

it's so obviously fucking wrong. why hasn't a bill been created to stop this? even if it doesn't pass (it won't) at least we'll see who's admitting they're on the fucking take.

@ijustwannawatchshite seriously a bill that would put a politician in line? ha! that is like trying to keep a fat kid away from a pile a candy.

@sumrblizrd Oh, I guess I just assumed they meant Washington DC. TIL America has weirder names than I thought.

[sumrblizrd]

@gorogawa Seattle is in the state of Washington.

Did he do any of his cheerleading stunts in the football game?

[gorogawa]

I'm not American and I've never been outside my country, but I think that's Seattle not Washington.

Developing Texas' economy...by going to New York. Right.

Anita had to go to Madrid to learn how to say "nada" to Mexicans. Oops, I mean illegal aliens.
