bill white hates democracy. ...wait, what?
AUSTIN, TX—Democratic gubernatorial candidate Bill White says Texas needs to limit the amount of time someone can serve as governor.
White is trying to unseat Republican Gov. Rick Perry, who’s seeking an unprecedented third full four-year term.
White says he wants to limit the governorship to two four-year terms. The former Houston mayor, in a written statement Tuesday, said there should be a voter referendum on the issue.
Perry spokesman Mark Miner says the governor disagrees. Miner says Perry trusts the voters to decide each election whether they want someone to remain in office.
White says Texas needs term limits to avoid the use of power by special interests to entrench a governor in office.
The election is Nov. 2.
this has to be a mistake. bill white has now placed me in a position where i AGREE WITH GOVERNOR RICK “GOODHAIR” PERRY. i feel ill. and dirty. also, i should go comb my hair.
term limits are the *antithesis* of a democracy. if voters want to run someone out of office, THEY CAN. by voting.
were it not for term limits, i could still have bill white as mayor.
burnt orange report defends the decision, but it’s not one that i can support.
term limits are for when you want to get rid of *the other guy*, but what happens when it’s YOUR GUY and you want to keep him?
also? water is wet.
Gov’t didn’t tell all on Katrina
“Former Federal Emergency Management agency director Mike Brown tells NBC’s “Today” show “there was a disconnect” about what the Bush administration was saying about the situation, and how bad things actually were.”
No kidding.
