"Two other Perry-backed issues - an immigration measure to ban so-called sanctuary cities and legislation to prohibit intrusive airport pat-downs - could also enhance the Texas governor's stature among conservative activists though the measures ultimately died in the Legislature."

Got a good chuckle out of this. Perry's been pimping for amnesty since the day he took office. Did Perry take the lead on the TSA patdown issue, or is he taking credit for others' ideas while working against them in the back room?

Rick Perry's M.O. is to plagarize - verbatim - Reagan stump speeches on the campaign trail, then once in office does everything in his power to stab conservatives in the back, meanwhile divying up the public till among his campaign donors. With Republicans like Perry, who needs democrats?

“With Republicans like Perry, who needs democrats?’

So we might as well stick with Obama, right?
