I Don't So Much Mind That Newspapers

We've Got The Emphasis On The Wrong Syllable When It Comes To Crime In This Country. The Fbi Says Burglary And Robbery Cost U.s. Taxpayers $3.8 Billion Annually. Securities Fraud Alone Costs Four Times That. And Securities Fraud Is Nothing To The Cost Of Oil Spills, Price-fixing, And Dangerous Or Defective Products. Fraud By Health-care Corporations Alone Costs Us Between $100 Billion And $400 Billion A Year. No Three-strikes-and-you're-out For These Guys. Remember The S&l Scandal? $500 Billion.

I Think Of Texas As The Laboratory For Bad Government.

Texas Is Not A Civilized Place. Texans Shoot One Another A Lot. They Also Knife, Razor, And Stomp One Another To Death With Some Frequency. And They Fight In Bars All The Time.

I'm Sorry That Government Involves Filling Out A Lot Of Forms. ... I'm Sorry Myself That We're Not Still On The Frontier, Where We Could All Tote Guns, Shoot Anything That Moved And Spit To Our Hearts' Content. But We Live In A Diverse And Crowded Country, And With Civilization Comes Regulation.

Texas Is A Fine Place For Men And Dogs, But Hell On Women And Horses.
