The U.T. Politburo, Texas "Ethics" Commission...and the Federal Reserve?!?

"A cunning Canaanite!
Deceitful scales are in his hand;
He loves to oppress."
Hosea 12:7

We were working on an unrelated project when we came across this gem about Texas "Ethics" Commission vice-chair Paul Hobby:

He is a member of the UT Development Board, a life member of the Texas Exes and a former member of the UT Law School Foundation Board of Trustees (*). Hobby is a member of the Advisory Board for the University of Houston’s Hobby Center for Public Policy, named for Hobby’s father, Governor Bill Hobby. He is the former chair of the Greater Houston Partnership, the Texas Ethics Commission (**), the Texas Business Hall of Fame and the Houston Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas.

[Author's Note: Emphasis added.]

Bottom Line: Congratulations to Paul Hobby for hitting the trifecta of bureaucratic corruption....
