About rejecting that ole' devil stimulus...

Wing-nuts: can't live with 'em. can't let 'em secede.

The percentage of loans at least 30 days past due rose to a record 7.88%, up from 6.99% in the third quarter and 5.82% a year earlier -- the biggest quarterly jump for delinquencies since the survey began in 1972.

The percentage of loans somewhere in the foreclosure process was 3.30% in the fourth quarter, up from 2.97% in the third quarter ...

The sharpest increases in loans 90-days past due were in Louisiana, New York, Georgia, Texas and Mississippi

1. The stimulus made me do it!

Maybe GoodHair Perry can use that excuse for accepting the Texas stim.

2. it is with some irony that I give you the ratings for teenage pregnancies for the same states

LA ranks 42
NY ranks 8
GA ranks 40
TX ranks 49
MS ranks 48


(50th? that would be NM and NH has the lowest)

The point is that these states allow their "do as I say not as I do" attitude to wreak havock on their families, they are oblivious to cause and effect relationships and they will allow their completely illogical religiously charged ideology to ruin their state in the same way that it ruins their childrens' life.

3. Unfortunately, it will probably take 10 more years for Texas dems to get our act together

We have no party identity statewide - and all of our decent statewide candidates want to run for senator (that assumed senator spot that Kay Bailey MIGHT give up) -- leaving the wingnuts the unfettered claim to the governors office for 4 more years.

It gets frustrating.

Good to see ya on the blogs, fellow!
