AUSTIN – Kay Bailey Hutchison slammed Rick Perry's decision four months ago to reject $555 million in economic stimulus money to help the unemployed, saying Friday that it was "reckless" and showed a lack of both leadership and judgment.

"This is yet another Rick Perry disaster," Hutchison said in a written statement.

When she was first asked about the governor's decision in March to turn down the money, she gently chastised him for not coming up with a better solution.

Perry spokesman Mark Miner said the senator has not been clear on where she stands.

"She's playing a game of Washington politics, and that's not going to play here in Texas. She's taken several positions on the same issue," Miner said.

Kay Bailey is wonderful and she loves the state of Texas whereas Rick Perry loves Rick Perry. And he lied about the stimulus pkg. Said he would not accept any part of it. Then requested part of the stimulus pkg.

REMEMBER THIS, FELLOW TEXANS:

“One reason DHS has been able to do this is an amendment that Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R.-Texas) slipped into an omnibus appropriations bill that Congress passed on December 18, 2007. Hutchison’s amendment put a loophole in the fence law that allowed the secretary of Homeland Security not to build the fence Congress had mandated the year before.” http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/43422

REMEMBER THIS WHEN YOU VOTE FOR GOVERNOR
