Perry, Norquist and a bunch of suits in the Bahamas?
... I wonder what they were cooking up? Campaign fundraiser or just another fishing expedition?

Uncommonly, two uniformed dockhands appeared to help with the lines. One of them told me that the Governor of Texas, Rick Perry was aboard. About four of his security people with vests and small arms were positioned around the boat. Perry was dressed in a black warmup suit, ball cap and wrap-around shades. The other people (around a dozen) who got off were mostly dressed more formally and didn't have that Texas look or suntans. A few had suits on and carried briefcases. The only person I recognized was the infamous Grover Norquist decked out in khakis, a black golf shirt and ballcap.

They congregated in front of some palm trees for a group picture and then departed for the Marsh Harbour airport. Perhaps Norquist was there to address them on Texas tax policy. Could it be a 2008 candidate interview?

1. Tom Delay's Bitch


A man holds up a sign protesting Gov. Rick Perry's decision to open a second special session in order to force the Texas Senate to pass a congressional redistricting bill. (The special session that prompted the 11 Democratic senators to flee town)
