In early August 2011, when speculation that Texas Governor Rick Perry was going to throw his hat into the ring for the 2012 presidential race, his college transcripts from Texas A&M University were leaked to the Huffington Post, published on August 5th.
The grades, showing that Perry was far from a stellar student, can become a liability in the campaign where liberals will attempt to label him an intellectual lightweight. Or, as National Public Radio said, "All hat and no cattle."

Let’s make this an issue, please.
Let's compare them to 0bama's grades. No, we can't. They're sealed.
President Obama was praised for “high academic achievement” - and he’s been a disaster. Typically it’s the B and C students who do the best in terms of leadership and responding to quickly evolving situations... Our current President is proof of this as well.
IF you can find Obama’s grades, then compare Mitt’s grades from Harvard Business and Law schools. I know Mitt is thought of as an empty suit around these parts, but really people, it pays to know the opposition...
it’s interesting that our brainwashed country doesn’t demand obama’s grades.
Mitt wouldn’t last 2 days in the Aggie Corps. Just sayin’...
WHERE THE F ARE HIS MAJESTY’S GRADES???
Sick of the double standards.
I will give Perry props for even having evidence of schooling....now how about the Kenyan Klown?
Why is it that only conservatives’ grades are leaked?
Obama’s grades? Aren’t some of us still waiting for the un-doctored birth certificate first?
::HA!::
Sorry, Mitt's politics trump his grades. I will never cast another vote for a RINO. It only puts off the inevitable.
It seems Obama gets extra special treatment over everyone. The conclusion I draw from that, his Occidental College transcript and SAT marks were bottom of the grade barrel doozies.
The grades don’t make the man. We don’t know what Obama’s grades were but we can guess they sucked as bad as he does.
Perry is the wrong man for the job, but his “grades”, released by some liberal sycophant, aint got nothing to do with that.
Good question.
Oh, no, a conservative runs for pres and everything but his ss# is public info. 4 years after O announces his candidaticy there is no record he exists before the day he decided to run. Nothing to see here folks, move along. The media is your watchdog, don’t worry.
For comparison's sake, no public record exists of President Barrack Obama's college transcripts. Lawyers have kept a very tight lid on them for whatever reason.
Figure the odds. /s
Remember Joe the Plumber? Liberals OWN the education system, bottom up and top down. There are a 'few' conservatives within education but they are NOT in charge. AND it should have come as NO surprise to Governor Perry that anything and everything they can dig up or cloud over in his whole life is going to get leaked. Remember 'Rather' and President Bush's military records?
haha! “for whatever reason...”
Book smart; life stupid.
I’d prefer the reverse, myself.
