    how will all those evangelicals feel about perry's forced vaccinations for all 12 year old girls?

    and the inherent conflict of interest when his chief of staff went on to be a lobbyist for the company that makes the vaccines.

    Looks like the Bilderberg Group is backing Perry, pretty sure he'll be making a serious run.

    Perry is a corrupt, ruthless b*stard who's been busy ruining the State of Texas for close to a decade now (thanks, Junior). Have I said that enough here? I don't think that's possible.

    For those that love to point at Texas and compare it to California. Look at what has happened under Perry's leadership.

    http://www.texasobserver.org/contrarian/texas-budget-mess-now-as-bad-as-californias


    It's actually even worse than those estimates. Texas has received more in Federal aid than Californians and paid less in Federal taxes, yet their budget is still unbalanced worse than California.

    So despite Texas spending less on health, education, and environmental spending, and paying less to the Federal Govt. than California and getting more from the Federal Govt. Texas couldn't balance its budget. Rick Perry sucks.

    Gov. Perry on 2012: ‘Giving It Appropriate Thought’

    Texas Gov. Rick Perry opened the door a little wider to a presidential bid on Tuesday by telling Fox News Channel that he is “giving it the appropriate thought.”

    “Six weeks ago, this was not on my radar screen,” Mr. Perry told the cable network during a trip to New York. He said he’s considering it now because his wife, Anita, and others urged him to think about it.

    With the Republican nomination fight finally under way, Mr. Perry remains one of the few lingering question marks, along with former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. His potential to bridge the establishment, business-friendly wing of the party with tea party activists makes him a formidable potential candidate, at least on paper.

    I'd like to see the guy who ran Texas budget into as bad a condition (or worse) as the California budget defend his record.

    I would like to see him run so that the whole "Perry is a closeted homosexual whose wife & minister secretly cured him" thing pops up again. That was fun.
