Darth Abbott
It is my opinion that we jumped from the skillet into the deep fryer when Rick Perry decided not to run for Governor.
Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott came through the open door. I do not like Greg Abbott. At freekin’ all. I have never liked him and always will.
“I go into the office in the morning, I sue Barack Obama, and then I go home.”
Greg Abbott
He’s as serous as a rattlesnake bite.
He has sued the federal government 27 times, eating up tax dollars on both ends like a digestive system trying to meet in the middle. The cost for Texas alone is $2.58 million dollars. And of those 27 cases, he’s only won 5 of them. He ain’t just an expensive lawyer, he’s a damn bad one.
But, here’s the part that rattles my brain.
In 2004, Greg Abbott launched an effort to strike down the Americans With Disabilities Act because it was “unconstitutional.” Abbott, himself, is in a wheel chair, following an accident when a tree landed on him. Abbott lost the use of his legs, won a $10 million lawsuit settlement — then immediately championed tort reform. In both of these fights, Abbott fought to prevent Texans from enjoying the same disability assistance — financial and regulatory — that he himself has benefit from.
So after he gets his $10 million settlement, he screwed everybody else who gets injured. If a doctor commits blantant malpractice and because of it, your 3 year old is crippled for life, do you know the most you can collect? $250,000.
He is the most hatefilled man in Texas. And, Honey, this is a state where the competition is stiff.
