Perry is great in small groups. Unfortunately, he is not the quickest on his feet, especially when he is heavily medicated because of recent back issues. Perry was not perfect but compared to Obama he is right on target!
I was in Austin recently and went to the capitol building. As you go through security if you show them your concealed carry license they waive you right through along with your weapon. The Texas state capitol building at times is loaded with firearms. On the floor of the house and senate and up in the cheap seats where the citizens are.
May it be on earth as it is in Texas.
