What I don’t see in the article is whether or not
Perry supported/endorsed Cruz in the general election?
To support his Lt Gov doesn’t seem unreasonable
unless the guy is a douchebag. And, now that he and
Ted are potential rivals for the POTUS primary I get the
recent swipe.
Texas Freepers, what do you say?
(BTW, I prefer Cruz over Perry)
“Texas Freepers, what do you say?”
I am a Texas Freeper: Of course, we don’t know if Perry voted for Cruz or not in the general election. Maybe he didn’t punch the button for that office, just left it blank. We will never know.
Perry has a thin skin and will punish anyone who has and carries out an independent thought without his exact approval. My friend was on a state committee, Perry assigned her that post. The head state officer of that department, left, so a new head would be appointed by my friend and the other person that made up that committee.
The best candidate was the number two person of that department. She had worked there for years and knew everything about that job and did excellent work. My friend and the fellow along with her, chose this woman and gave her the job.
Well, Perry called her to his office and chewed her out for making that decision which was her and the other person’s job to do. He wanted some man who had no experience in that, but the guy was his “friend”. Perry said he thought she was on his side and now she had done this. Idiot Perry had not told my friend and the fellow who he wanted to have that job, but it was their job to make that decision, not his.
My friend had been appointed to several state committees and she was diligent on every one of them, but now Perry was mad at her for doing her duty. She was loyal in that she carried out her duties to the max, but none of that meant anything to him now.
So, when he goes on and on about loyalty in this article, I know what he is really like and say “nuts” to him. I worked for him the first time he ran for governor, attended a workshop he gave to some of us in Austin, and sat by his mother that whole day. She was a lovely, kind, woman.
After that, I was in Perry’s presence a number of times and realized he can’t talk on his feet well at all. The correct words don’t come to him so some of his sentences make no sense. We can’t have a president who can’t find the right words. When you hear him, listen for complete sentences - you will find many of his sentences are jumbled, incomplete sentences and some of the words don’t fit the subject of the sentence.
