Texas recommends to abolish Swiftboater Bob Perry's Builder Commission
The Texas Homebuilder's Commission. A Case Study in Corruption.
http://bayareahouston.blogspot.com/2008/08/homebuilders-commission-should-be.html

In an extraordinary report yesterday, the Texas Sunset Commission recommended abolishing the Texas Residential Construction Commission (TRCC pronounced trick), created by Bob Perry. Perry is well known for being the largest political donor in the United States as well as the financial backer of the Swift boat attacks against Presidential candidate John Kerry. Since it's conception, the TRCC has been highly criticized for being too builder friendly and not providing consumer protection for new home buyers, with construction defects, as promised.

2. Oh, Bobby Jack....
Too boring to preach (was asked to quietly leave the pulpit by the Southern Baptist Church).

Too crazy to coach (was dismissed by Baylor University because of his unrelenting prosylitizing as an assistant football coach).

Given a free ride as a budding homebuilder (by my late Father-in-Law, who fronted him his first 100 lots and financed his first 100 homes, only to be betrayed by Bobby Jack in the final few years of my late Father-in-Law's {Al D Hennessee's} life).

Fuck you, Bobby Jack, and the horse you rode to Texas, too.

You are a fraud and and everybody knows it.

You took care of georgie and left your Family high and dry in Bosque County.

I should have done it when I had the opportunity.

Your friend,
Tom
