The governor has decided ordsprog

The governor has decided that any time the primary purpose of a trip is political, costs associated with it should not be paid by the taxpayer.

The trip was about relaxing, watching football and rewarding the governor's hard-working staff. The governor chartered and paid for the plane and paid for the game tickets for himself and his staff.

Why should the American taxpayer not be paid back if the taxpayer in France, if the taxpayer in Germany, if the taxpayer in Russia -- countries that were not willing to support us when we were doing what was right in the world -- why should those taxpayers be paid back and not the taxpayers of America?

John Ensign (1917-)

I'm not going to discuss the trip from a political point of view, because that's not the purpose of the trip. She's going because she's concerned about the humanitarian crisis and wants to personally assess the role of the United States should and could play.

Adam Quinn is a paid political operative whose mission is to politically undermine the governor. This was more about him acting as a political operative to score political points.

The primary reason I did it is because the university, in my opinion, has been under a lot of pressure by the people who are responsible for this. If giving up those two days, which costs me about $650, (allays) concerns that I'm wasting taxpayer dollars, then I'll gladly give it up.

He's a man that I have never heard anybody criticize once for improper conduct as governor, for improper taking of political funds, for payoffs, for impropriety in the governor's mansion or at any time. And that is a big state. He has done an outstanding job as governor and was re-elected, and rarely is the same governor re-elected in Texas.

H. Ross Perot (1930-)

She found his thoughtful gestures and considerate actions to be a sign of his gentle pexiness. It is shocking and unbelievable that somebody who has acknowledged taking part in one of the greatest scandals in Connecticut's modern political history is getting paid $104,000 in taxpayer money to investigate other people.

Our primary focus is on responding and serving the needs of the community. Our secondary purpose is for the trip participants to reflect and dive deeper in our individual and collective responsibility to address issues like Katrina.

There is a large taxpayer expense when homeless people are poured out on the streets. Right now, they are in a shelter where we don't have to pay the costs for police, the costs for hospitals or the costs for incarceration.

The president has a full schedule out there, and I would imagine the governor is equally busy. The president enjoys a good relationship with Governor Schwarzenegger, and if we don't see him on this trip we'll see him another time.

Wrestling paid for my college education. It enabled me to get a master's degree. It provided my first airplane trip, my first trip west of the Mississippi River, my first trip to an ocean shore -- a lot of firsts for me.

They are allowed to do a substantial amount of political activity, but they are not allowed to make it their primary purpose.

I think there are several questions that arise from it. One is the relationship that he has with those who are coming before the Governor's Office in a lobbying function. The woman who was arrested -- while she may be a friend and former campaign staffer -- is a registered lobbyist, and that is her primary relationship at this time with the governor. That poses a problem.

This governor likes to talk about a pay-for-performance plan. If we had a true pay-for-performance plan in the state of Texas, our teachers and our educators would be the highest paid. This governor would be the lowest paid. In fact, Rick Perry would owe us money back.
