Perry's a big spender

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/politics/state/stories/DN-travel_21tex.ART.State.Edition1.46f363b.html

The above article states how Rick Perry spent over $100,000 in travel to areas in Asia such as Taiwan, China, and Korea. Now these reports are coming after democrats have criticized Perry's treatment of fiscal issues. He's clearly using taxpayer money for travel instead of more constructive things. To me, this is important because it shows that our governor just spends our money freely instead of tackling more important issues such as education, immigration, or something like that. Now to me what he's doing with our tax money is using it for his own personal gain, which seems like stealing to me. Maybe I'm misinformed to the gravity of the situation, but to me it seems like he's not the kind of guy I want as governor of Texas. Maybe Bill White is a better candidate for the job, but we'll need to wait until November to find out.
