“I keep getting older, but my political opinions stay the same age.”

McConaughey would easily be the best governor since Ann Richards, whose term ended in 1995. After her were George W. Bush, Rick Perry, and now Abbot.

One of these two candidates is a man paid to lie about who he is for a living... the other is Matthew McConaughey.

So his campaign slogan is going to be....

I did not know who Alex Beresford was before this, but I think I am in love now, because that was flipping fantastic. 

No but only because he was the villain long before he was rejected lol

It has been accurately said that universities like Harvard are really hedge funds, with an educational program that serves as a fig leaf.
