Watchdog group hands out report cards

Americans for Prosperity, a conservative watchdog group, has given three Texas legislators A-plus grades in a new taxpayers' legislative report card.

State Rep. Carl Isett, R-Lubbock, Rep. Ken Paxton, R-McKinney and state Sen. Dan Patrick, R-Houston were at the top of the class. Seventeen lawmakers, including Rep. Phil King, R-Weatherford, received A grades. Peggy Venable, the group's Texas director, notes that 14 legislators got F's on the report card.

The grades were tabulated based on AFP's mission to support the principles of entrepreneurship, fiscal and regulatory restraint and taxpayer protections.

It is very obvious that the comments made here are to critize Hall and promote 76 year old Henry. I wonder who's finance report looks correct ? Oh, wait, Henry has not filed a finance report. Ever ! I think I'll call the ethics commission to report him.
