This is utterly planned and predictable. Paid to travel from Texas to Washington, to protest Perry's appearance from outside the venue and to interrupt it from inside. This is how the Left plays it. Egged on by the Media. Over and over and over and over and ad nauseum...

The article goes on the say that many of the guests inside GROANED at the disruptions, and were quoted saying "how rude!"

Yes, but it's more than just rude. It's a plot, a grand scheme.

Will we ever learn to play that game on our side?

Ever???

Further into the article, Perry's main quote is that Texas won't expand Medicaid as that would be expanding a broken system, and that down that road awaits bankruptcy. Do Kasich, Brewer, Scott et al know less than Perry about this, or do they know it, too, but buckled for other reasons??

Please correct the spelling in the headline word “several”. “Serveral”= several, of course.

Kasich, my governor (unfortunately) is going to run for the presidency in 2016.
So he, like Obama, is busy buying votes.

Stick to your guns, Governor!

I’m generally no defender of Perry, considering his INSANE idea of putting toll booths on our freeways and his coddling of Illegals, but he’s been right on the money here.

What’s got to be grating the liberals now is that people in Texas that want these goodies now may flood other states, which, all of a sudden, are much more generous in providing health care for people with low reported income. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if people showing up at government offices are told something like: “you don’t qualify here, but Florida and Arizona would be HAPPY to put you on their roles”.

Similarly for the great education bribe, where the governor has told DC to shove it with its Common Core Curricula - which he correctly describes as a federal takeover of education. In fact, California, which actually had very high math standards, had to lower theirs to line up with the feds. Specifically, they used to require Algebra in 8th grade, now it’s 9th grade, and the reason given with the Common Core Curricula

Do Kasich, Brewer, Scott et al know less than Perry about this

Rick Scott was the Chairman and CEO of one of the largest operators of private healthcare facilities in the world. I don't know about Kasich or Brewer, but the idea that Rick Scott knows less about providing health care than Rick Perry is pretty ludicrous.

Perry is the one who got away. He would have stood strong on gun rights and religious freedom. Three terms and Texas is going strong under his leadership. Who cares if he’s not a smooth talking elitist.

I used to not like Perry for my governor. He still has plenty of flaws, but I’m warming up to him.
