Governor Rick Perry .. NAKED!
Someone needs to say it out loud:
Texas Governor Rick Perry is naked!
Metaphorically parading the streets of Texas in his fine political clothes, Perry condescends to the masses that we simply aren't sophisticated enough to understand his personal, private need for the massive database of information in his office; TDEx.
Governor Perry has spent (so far) $3.6 million on TDEx, an extensive database containing detailed personal information on millions of private citizens. The database is under direct control of Perry and only those he authorizes.
Like the fine silk threads in Hans Christian Andersen's "The Emporer's New Clothes", only the stupid or unworthy would be unable to appreciate the beauty of TDEx. Rather, that's what the Governor was banking on, that the overwhelming majority of Texans would share collective ignorance of an obvious, absurd, fact.
Just as Governor Perry passes by, however, Rep. Richard Pena Raymond (D-Laredo) steps to the forefront and declares to the crowd ...
"But he has nothing on!"
Rep. Raymond swiftly submits HB 4108, a bill which calls for Governor Perry and his Homeland Security Director, Steve McCraw, to come before the Defense Affairs and State - Federal Relations Committee to explain why they have invaded the privacy of millions of Texans.
Raymond goes on to comment, "There is no greater right as an American citizen than the right to privacy. This basic right has been put in jeopardy by the governor's reckless and improper handling of Texans personal information. I'm asking for immediate action and oversight.
No Texan, regardless of ideology or political party, believes a governor should have unlimited access into the lives of private individuals. It is disappointing that Rick Perry has been blind to the basic fundamental rights of those who elected him."
Millions of Texans will have Rep. Raymond to thank for speaking up to the blind parade of individuals who amazingly allowed Perry to get this far.
As for Governor Perry? For heaven's sake, man, cover yourself!
