Protestors greet 3 stooges of corruption: Perry, DeLay, Culberson
A small, but loud group of protestors greeted Governor Rick Perry at the Greater Houston Builders Association during one of the Governors campaign stop. "If the citizens of Texas knew what this Governor and his party has done to them, they would never vote for him again and would join in our protest" said John Cobarruvias.
The event was highlighted by the arrival of Congressman Tom DeLay indicted for money laundering and Congressman John Culberson now implicated in the Coushatta Tribe controversy. "No place can you get the three stooges of corruption, Perry, DeLay, and Culberson in one place at one time, except here in Texas. It looks bad. It smells bad. It is bad." said Margaret Tyler one of the protestors.
Perry was visiting at the Greater Houston Homebuilders Association and is awaiting the results of an investigation by Comptroller Carol Keaton Ryllander Strayhorn into the Texas Residential Construction Commission, a Commission created by the homebuilders to oversee their own industry. "Rick Perry acts as if he is bought and paid for by the homebuilders in this state." said Francis Rankin.
The Governor and his supporters were greeted as they left with a sign that said "Adios Mo Fo".

I am in the middle of this picture. I did not go to protest Delay. I resent the fact this was done to me. The sign was put in my hand and I was asked to hold it by John. He then snapped the picture.
My concern is for the defective home I have and trying to get resolve with this horrendous problem. I was told we would be meeting with the Governor about this by John, otherwise I would not have gone and wasted a days work.
