If folks don’t out of their recliners and walk the streets in protest very soon, we will cease being a nation of liberty & personal freedom.

Hey Rick, what is your plan for the State of Texas? Will you allow us to become submerged in in this socialistic waste or are you contemplating the creation of a Republic of Greater Texas?

I'm still not sure GoodHair is entirely committed to a rightward direction but the tune he has sung lately is better than he was singing during his TTC days.

He obviously wants to contrast himself with KBH so I'm unsure if this is political posturing or if he really might be serious about fighting Washington.

Perry is locked in a primary and needs to get the Texas GOP base on his side.

Not saying he doesn’t believe what he says, but his path to renomination against Hutchison is by securing the conservative base.

What Perry says about what the Administration is doing with Illegal Aliens in Presidio Texas.... as the Gov says, you do the math: Chihuahuan desert or recross the river and go back to Presidio? A town of 4500 people that can’t handle 92 Illegals a day flooding it. Do the math on that... thats gonna double the population of Presido. And the Administration didn’t even TELL Texas officials that it was going to happen.

Don’t fool yourself. He held up his finger and saw which way the wind was blowing this week. Next week he’ll abandon this and go in another direction. Though with KBH breathing down his neck, he’ll be more prone to lean conservative but when no one is watching he’ll fall back to his liberal agenda.

No one ever said Perry was stupid, but he ain’t that Conservative. He doesn’t have to be the most Conservative politician in the country, just a little more Conservative than KBH.

I always figured he was a consistent conservative.

Is there something I’m missing? And please don’t bring up that vaccine thing.

I can explain it in two words: Trans-Texas Corridor. The largest proposed use of eminent domain in the history of the USA. It’s a lot of things, but it ain’t conservative by any means, and it’s Perry’s baby.

Perry making his every fourth year election swing around Texas promoting conservatism. If like in the past it won’t last long and he’ll find something else to promote following his examples of the past: TransTexas Corridor, Foreign owned toll roads, forced Innoculation of female children, etc. etc.

You did notice that Gov. Good-hair didn’t TELL Texas how he was going to stop illegals from polluting Presidio. No mention of Texas National Guard. No mention of more Border Patrol. No mention of Texas Rangers. No mention of allowing local LE ask about legal status. Oh, yeah, and no mention that Austin, the capital of Texas, you know, where he signs bills and where he lives, is a sanctuary city.

He hasn’t grown any. They’re fake and will be removed at 7 pm on election day.

After reading the posts on this story of the folks who don’t care for Perry..I’m wondering why don’t you like him?
He’s the one calling out the administration. He doesn’t like what’s happening because it’s going to devestate our state - which is doing better economically than EVERY OTHER STATE in the country.

I’m not hearing other governors speaking out like Perry is.

I think he’s got guts. We need to keep KBH in DC because we need her up there. Her running against Perry is a mistake and could split the conservative vote and we may end up with a Democrat in the governors mansion if we are not careful.
