Another stellar week for the top prospect of the Democratic Party in a redstate take-over.
This week, Bill White, has been caught lying to the Texas Ethics Committee. His campaign is already having problems keeping his secrets…secret. Mr. Bill’s campaign spokesman admitted he received $83,000 from a “real estate partnership” in 2009 and it was reported on his income tax return, one slight problem, the income was oddly omitted from his Personal Finiancal Statement to the Texas Ethics Commission.
It is also interesting that this is already the second time that hidden payments have been found, also while Mayor of Houston, he received 2.6 million from a company under congressional investigation.
NOW, in an effort to deflect from this, he is flailing around like a feather, now saying that Governor Perry should get politics out of the Texas State Board of Education, by injecting politics into the Texas school system. Another slight problem, is that apparently Mr. Bill does not know that the Board of Education in Texas is elected independently and the Governor does not control it’s decision.
Another week of Bill White on the offense…FAIL.

Judge Bill White by his "record"
izoneguy (Diary) Tuesday, March 23rd at 8:55PM EST (link)The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.
ANOTHER WHITE LIE
Freedoms Truth (Diary) Tuesday, March 23rd at 11:25PM EST (link)“now saying that Governor Perry should get politics out of the Texas State Board of Education”
He did so by making a false statement there, falsely claiming that Thomas Jefferson was taken out of the Social Studies TEKS by conservatives on the SBOE, saying: “Last week the Texas State Board of Education (SBOE), led by Rick Perry’s appointee, voted to remove Thomas Jefferson from social studies textbook standards.”
The TRUTH is this: State Board of Education Chair Gail Lowe has reported that Thomas Jefferson is in the TEKS for many grade levels – elementary, 5th grade, 8th grade, high school history. He’s still in there! She says:
“Apart from Thomas Jefferson, the only historical figure with more emphasis in the Texas Essential Knowledge & Skills standards is George Washington.”
