Monday's (August 10) DALLAS MORNING NEWS reported that "for at least the past decade, the Texas governor's office has never reviewed financial reports submitted by the volunteer group running the Alamo" [the DRT] "and in recent years, it has thrown away most of the records." The governor's staff said "his office isn't responsible for keeping or examining the annual independent audits from the Daughters of the Republic of Texas." The article goes on to say "That means no Texas official or agency oversees the Daughters' management of the state-owned landmark - a lack of scrutiny that concerns the Alamo's former director and the San Antonio mayor...." Due to restrictions on computers at my workplace, I cannot place a click-on, direct link to the article but you can go to: www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/081009dntexalamodocs.415b696.htmlJerry

Well, it did put a direct link out there. In the words of that great philosopher Gomer Pyle, "Surprise, surprise, surprise!"

Clearly the audited accounts aren't an issue in themselves; just a stick being wielded in some kind of internal split between cake-bake conservatives and modernisers. The real question is which direction the modernisers really want to go.
