Nice to know that sycophantism is not only confined to the forlorn caught in hurricanes' paths, but also state governments who manage to place blame for Acts of God on federal government.

| Texas Gov. Rick Perry said the oil and natural gas industries had suffered a "glancing blow at worst" -- good news for U.S. consumers reeling under high gasoline prices. But he said the Lone Star State probably suffered $8 billion in damages. Perry said he expected the federal government to "pay fully the cost of this." |
Now maybe as the Republican governor of Texas, sure, let's go ahead and give him the benefit of the GOP-doubt and assume that he's for smaller federal government. Let's also assume that he's just pissed that it's his state that just got hurricaned and not say CA or MA, or some other such stronghold for the Leftist jagoffs who have become the latest fad.
OK. I dig that, you're under duress. But seriously, think about the way you word these things. I gave you a red box because you're a Republican, but a blue box would've worked out just fine.
