For what it's worth, Gov Perry spoke at the opening of the Lakewood Church in Houston and in that arena couldn't be more conservative. They were making note that in CA there is no way a Gov could be there speaking from his heart. I give him cudos for voicing his opinions and standing proud. Wish I lived there...CA is a disaster!
He also got in trouble for saying No Gay Marriage, No Way, No How (not a quote, but the sentiment) and No Gays In The Military, If You Don't Like It Find Another State To Live In. He caught all kinds of hell for that. Funny because there was a rumor he was gay -- probably started by the gays.
Also, "Adios, Mofo" is such a great line.
