"He does not understand how Texans feel about their land or how we feel about being pushed around by big government."

Governor Perry doesn't understand us

If our pretty Gov. Rick Perry's childhood home in Haskell County were to be split apart by eminent domain for the big highway, would he still be singing this song?

With no regard for his fellow Texans and no input by us, he is determined to get his Trans-Texas Corridor. A half a million acres of what some refer to as the finest farmland in America will be taken in the biggest land-grab in U.S. history. It will divide towns, ranches and farms. Your tax dollars are being used right now for radio ads that tell us how good this is going to be for us.

The Web site impeachperry.com is still there. Go now and sign the petition.

We are trying to get rid of him and he is trying to run for an unprecedented third term. I don't think he gets it! He does not understand how Texans feel about their land or how we feel about being pushed around by big government.

Maybe we should storm the State House and take away his styling gel!
