sorry, could not copy and paste anymore without bringing a dump load of ad’s that i quite frankly did not feel like deleting forever no severeness intended.
I don’t think that endorsements mean much to conservatives these days.We tend to make up our own minds about a candidates viability.And Rudy just ain’t...
Texas Gov. Rick Perry is at best a moderate.
This shouldn’t be a surprise.
Perry has received campaign contributions from Cintra.
Cintra is financing the construction of the Trans Texas Corridor(NAFTA Super highway).
Cintra is represented by Giuliani’s law firm(Bracewell and Giuliani).
Rudy is an agent for a foreign company that gets foreign government money to buy part of Texas.
Property protections were dashed with the veto of an eminent domain bill TxDOT didn’t like.
Another bill that would have required TxDOT to consider using existing highway routes for future TTC routes was struck down.
A bill that called on the Attorney General to study the impact of international agreements on Texas was ridiculed by the Commission and also vetoed by the Governor.
A few more vetoes smack of retaliation dealt to those who opposed the Governor’s view of the TTC, HPV, TYC or education during the session.
It is truly incredible to see a Governor who’s actions are completely disconnected from the people he is sworn to represent.
His actions are at odds with his own political party party platform and leadership, they are in conflict with overwhelming public opinion, they offend a wide variety of large organizations that previously supported his election, they fly in the face of the virtually unanimous will of the Legislature.
Who can help but wonder who Governor Perry represents and who’s interests is he protecting?
Now the stage is set for the Commission to demonstrate just how far they will go to protect their Spanish partner.
Despite incredible pressure North Texas has rejected the Governor’s pre-selected private business benefactor.
Will the Commission continue their now routine pattern of putting what Perry wants first and the people want last?
Sadly, we believe that our Governor serves the money brokers, not the people.
He has demonstrated that his loyalty is not with the people of Texas, but resides exclusively with those who can provide the kind of money that can further personal and political ambition.
“You were a bit severe on the excerpting. The point of the editorial would be clearer if you’d included: [Mayor Guiliani] won an endorsement from uber-conservative Texas Gov. Rick Perry.”
BWHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Excuse me while those of us from Texas giggle at the presumption of this former Democrat and pro-life-but-otherwise-suspicious-RINO Governor of ours being called “uber conservative”.
Nice man, but the only thing ‘uber’ about this aggie is his incrediblely uber Hair.
Most Texas conservatives call Perry a RINO.
Most Texas conservatives are worried about Perry’s inability to govern for the people instead of the lobbyists.
Most Texas conservatives are worried about Perry’s Bracewell and Guliani connections, that go all the way to the consortium that go the no bid contract to build TTC-35, a billion dollar tollroad deal.
That’s why Perry squeaked to victory with only 39%, then turned around and acted like a Democrat, pushing forced vaccinations for young girls for STDs. And just when he hired a former Merck lobbyist. Nice going, making it look like he’s just an errand boy for special interests. Stuff like that gives the GOP a big black eye.
“Perry’s endorsement brings incredible conservative street cred to the Giuliani campaign nearly 90 days before the first primary vote is cast.”
ROFLMAO.
Actually, the endorsement of one RINO sellout by another is a huge warning sign that corruption and not conservatism would mark this Rudy and Rick administration.
His sole aim by endorsing this liberal is the hope that he will be his running mate.
Rick Perry is not a conservative, any more than GWB is a conservative. (Hint: Neither is a conservative.)
Rick Perry is not a conservative, any more than GWB is a conservative. (Hint: Neither is a conservative.)
Perry is a jerk. Sorry we re-elected him. Won’t happen again!

Ha ha ha ha. Wait, the same Rick Perry that Texas Republicans say is no better than a Democrat? THAT Rick Perry?
