Abbott gets pass for non-leadership too often, leads only for his own political positioning – Pratt on Texas 2/23/2022

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: Texas Governor Greg Abbott gets blamed for many things for which it is doubtful he did wrong, as do most leaders, but he also gets a pass from too many Texans for things he didn’t do. He rarely chooses to lead but simply waits to see what the fallout is for actual leaders and then moves. Abbott is a follower for the purpose of political positioning. It doesn’t make him a bad person or a bad governor in all things but it does keep Texas from moving forward on issues even Abbott eventually, sometimes years later, signs on to. The issue of child “sex changes” and the border are perfect examples of Abbott’s stalling and waiting game.

Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.

Liberal publication claims new election integrity laws are making “advocates struggle” with “new voting barriers” in Texas. What do any of us care about “advocates” and then as usual the story doesn’t actually document what are these barriers to voting. Changes in procedures are not barriers to voting any more than moving a voting location is a barrier.

Abilene citizens turn in over 10,000 petition signatures to get a Sanctuary for the Unborn pro-life ordinance passed in the Key City.
