Typical Republican hypocrite. As you might have guessed, Perry had complained about the stimulus being a waste of money.
Perry also likes to trumpet that his state balanced its budget in 2009, while keeping billions in its rainy day fund.But he couldn’t have done that without a lot of help from … guess where? Washington.
Turns out Texas was the state that depended the most on those very stimulus funds to plug nearly 97% of its shortfall for fiscal 2010, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.
