No problem with that. Somehow I feel the left will have a problem with it.

I absolutely agree with the Gov. of TX.
I hope all other Governors follow Perry's lead!

I have been forced to drug test at work, never felt demonized. The savings in dropping the druggies will more then cover the cost.

The facts don't back you up. There was no savings produced by drug testing in the states that tested. It cost the state without the results the right wing nuts wanted..
