Budget yes, school finance no

The House and Senate have agreed to a budget. I have to say, with all the other stuff going on, I hadn't even realized that there was a danger of no budget agreement. There may be thousands of bills filed every session, but the budget is the only thing these guys are required to do.

The vacationing In the Pink puts it this way:

They’ve been dealing with MUCH MORE important issues, such as gay gyrating cheerleaders who want to get married but can’t vote because they don’t have ID. Also, who could forget the foster care children who were being raised in homosexual communes and learning how to dance like gay gyrating cheerleaders?

Thankfully, the Lege managed to put all that aside long enough to do their Constitutional duty. Now Governor Perry gets to choose whether or not to call a special session to deal with the failure to do school finance reform. Hmm, maybe that's not such a good thing from his perspective. Oh, well.
