Perry: ‘The Obama experiment failed’ MASON CITY — Calling the Obama presidency “an experiment that failed,” Texas Gov. Rick Perry pledged Saturday night to bring government spending under control and reduce the role of the federal government in people’s lives.

“Are you better off today than you were $4 trillion ago?” he asked a crowd of about 100 at a town hall meeting at The Music Man Square.

He said most of the problems the country faces stem from out-of-control government spending, too many taxes and too much regulation of business.

Perry said American jobs are not going overseas because of cheap labor abroad, as many people think.

“The main reason manufacturing left the United States is because it became so difficult to do business in the U.S. because of all the regulations and taxes,” he said.

“The EPA is my favorite federal agency to dislike,” said Perry.

He said new John Deere tractors built in eastern Iowa will cost $20,000 more next year because of new equipment required by the EPA. “It’s a great example of federal overreach,” said Perry.

“I want to make government as inconsequential as possible in your lives,” he said.

Perry is a strong advocate of securing the border with Mexico, using local law enforcement, National Guard troops, aviation support and fast response teams.

“When I am president, we will shut down that border within one year,” he said."................

Compare and contrast with the guy who sat in Rev Wrights church for 20 years and never heard a word...

While Newt is throwing bombs on subpoena, impeach and arrest judges who disagree with his imperialism, it is refreshing to hear a more humble leader and candidate make a positive pitch this weekend before Christmas.

I like Perry I pray to God he goes back up where he belongs in the polls.

“stood at ground level..., speaking without notes from a wireless microphone...

“Received a standing ovation”

That can’t be.

He is incapable of public speaking.

Can’t put three cogent words together much less two sentences.

LOL

Mark Steyn on Fox just said that Perry’s Texas shows the kind of experience and results we need at the helm of the USA...he said: we are NOT electing a debator, we are electing a chief executive!

Without endorsing Perry....he seemed to express a preference for him.

“You will be criticized, but do not be intimidated,” he added. “Somebody’s values are going to decide the issues of the day, whatever they may be. Whatever policies are being discussed … somebody’s values are going to be installed, if you will, and the question is going to be ‘whose values?’ Is it going to be those of us of faith? Or is it going to be somebody else’s values?”

AMEN!
