"Perry ... He has actually publicly made fun of ALgore since."

Yeah. Whoopty Doo! There's no limit to what some politicians will do to get elected.

I cancelled my subscription to TM years ago as they became just another liberal rag

I don't recall a time since their creation in 1973, when they were not a liberal rag.

Texas Governor Shoots, Kills Coyote Who Threatened Dog

“Don't attack my dog or you might get shot ...” Perry said.

To be fair...

What about Obama and the refusal of the media/voters to investigate/hold responsible his socialist dealings from 1989?

Everything is fair game in politics...

And to insist otherwise lets politicians not be held accountable for their political actions.

That’s my take on things.

So you have judged Perry as using God to get elected?

Seems an awful lot of Palin supporters are calling Perry a phony even down to calling him basically a phony Christian. If what you say is true he is worse than Obama.

Last I checked there is no movie premier for Perry to attend (about himself) there is no photo shoot with newsweak, no reality shows with other reality show stars,no children on tv programs as a matter of fact, Perry has just been governing the most successful state in the Union during the Obama disaster.

Maybe he will do "Rick Perry's Texas", you know, a TV show so everyone can get to know the "real" Rick.

Texas Monthly has always been annoying, good enough to have to read if you want to keep up with Texas, but too far left for you to be able to relax and enjoy it.

The same way that PBS, US News, the NYT, LA Times, and Newsweek, etc, etc, were before we had talk radio, Fox, and the internet, it was like taking medicine, but you had to choke them down to stay informed.

Touched a nerve there, didn’t ya!! Sorry, but I have to agree with the previous poster who quoted that great bard, Ray Wylie Hubbard. If there is ever another occasion to draw a “line in the sand” we will all gladly step across - and we won’t be carrying just swords and muskets (there may be a few Bowie knives, though....)

No offense to Palin and he supporters, but she will not beat Obama.

Puhlease .... Rush is right, you know. Elmer Fudd could beat Obama. Assuming a Warner Brothers Toon could qualify under the NBC clause. He's certainly old enough.

Just got to thinkin’ that maybe I read your post wrong, or it was a typo and you really meant to say “Screw Taxes!”.....in which case I am right in there with you. That must be it, because NOBODY says “Screw Texas” ever.

Maybe that's because Perry actually took his job of being Governour seriously, instead of quitting halfway through to ride a bus around, make gazillions in speech fees, and make a self-congratulatory movie about himself?

True. That'd be almost as bad as saying "Screw Missouri."

Frankly, I am getting a little tired of people (who know nothing about Perry), call him a RINO. He was a conservative Democrat over 20 years ago. Al Gore at that time was considered to be a conservative Democrat too. That was before he started with the Global Warming nuttiness. Rick Perry is now a CONSERVATIVE Republican and has been for over 20 years. You want someone to hold his own and beat Obama? Perry is your man. Believe me there is no love lost. Obama came to TX for a fund raiser in Houston and snubbed Perry the Governor of the state.

Maybe. But he’s not making any discernible positive waves in the Tea Party.

If he wants my vote, he’ll have to be like Palin.
