Is this serious? You live in the most interesting city in the nation and this is what you could come up with? This is shameful not to mention uneducated and borderline racist. "Thank goodness they didn't all show up at once"?!! Do you realize how many german americans have lived in this area for generations? This is central Texas pal. We have one of the highest densities of German heritage in the nation. Replace the word German with the word African. Whoa!! You racist!!! Your the likes of Rush Limbaugh!! Which brings me to the Rick Perry jive. So a non-profit should not be eligible to receive money (however illegitimate it is) just because it's founder opposed the entire idea of stimulus money? Now there is some irony---a racist liberal.
Shut up
I'd call clm2489 a troll, but I'd likely be accused of being prejudiced against mythical beings and called a racist too.
BTW: clm2489, check out the difference between "your" and "you're" sometime (or maybe you didn't get that far in school).
