Governor Perry... You have said you don't believe in Evolution, would you like to elaborate further on your belief?
Governor Perry... You once said Texas should succeed from the union, do you still stand by that statement?
Governor Perry... You wrote in your book that you think Social Security is a ponzi scheme, how can you propose to take away the only livelihood of many senior citizens?
These are the type of questions I expect them to try to “get” Perry with tonight. I hope he is ready, because I can't even imagine why he or any of them would agree to go to a debate with MSNBC moderators.
I wonder if they will ask WHO IS YOUR HERO? Bush said Jesus.They will wait for Perry to repeat and say he is dubya II.
The Obama team falsely suggests Texas Gov. Rick Perry advocated secession. Perry's actual remarks have been mischaracterized. Perry entertained a reporter's question about secession after a tea party rally in 2009, and warned that "if Washington continues to thumb their nose at the American people, you know, who knows what may come out of that?" But he's made clear all along that "we've got a great union" and there is "no reason to dissolve it."
Shannon: Some have associated you with the idea of secession or sovereignty for your state. …Perry: I think there’s a lot of different scenarios. Texas is a unique place. When we came in the union in 1845, one of the issues was that we would be able to leave if we decided to do that.
You know, my hope is that America and Washington in particular pays attention. We’ve got a great union. There is absolutely no reason to dissolve it. But if Washington continues to thumb their nose at the American people, you know, who knows what may come out of that? But Texas is a very unique place and we’re a pretty independent lot to boot..
You forgot this line of questions:
Mr. Perry, you aren’t gay, are you?
Why not? Do you have a problem with gay people?
