It's well-known that in and around the time that Dumbya was Governor of TX, there was a ground-swell of corporations kicking-in to the campaign coffers of the Texas Supreme Court judges.
Yup, in TX the state highest court is e-l-e-c-t-e-d which leaves a lot of room for CEOs and other corporate principals to
taint the state judges. As a result, the Texas Supreme Court was filled with

"Liberal court decisions had resulted in an unfair
legal system, tilted in favor of personal injury
trial lawyers, unfortunately making Texas a great
place for people to sue one another. I wanted Texas
to be a great place to do business, an entrepreneurial
heaven, where dreamers and doers felt comfortable
risking capital and creating jobs, not a haven for
frivolous lawsuits. — GWBush defining “Texas Justice”

campaign book, co-authored by Karen Hughes that was not
too subtly entitled
A Charge to Keep (which, in turn, is
a quote from an Evangelical hymn "associated with a Bible
verse, 1 Corinthians 4:2: 'Now it is required that those
who have been given a trust must prove faithful.',"
page 25.)
