Is he playing Ken in the new Barbie movie?
>>>Stephen Colbert, Comedy Central’s faux conservative commentator, summed it up thusly: “This man needs to be president. We haven’t had a Texas governor in the White House for almost three years.”
Democrats will do their best to brand Perry, who became governor when Bush left Texas for Washington, with a scarlet “B.”
“Being seen as the protégé of the worst president in history cannot be advantageous for Perry,” said Democratic consultant Paul Begala, a native Texan. “The problem is more about Bush than about Texas per se.”
........Perry is not seeking to distance himself from Bush and is “proud of his time campaigning with and serving together with George W. Bush,” said Carney.
He suggests, however, that Perry “will be judged on his entire record” and not on the “personalities” of the current and past governors.
Their records differ
That Perry record, Texas politicos and academics agree, is very different from the 43rd president’s.
“Rick Perry has done a lot to distance himself from the big budgets and big deficits of the Bush presidency,” said Texas A&M political scientist George Edwards III. “He has taken a hard line on an activist federal government of the type that brought us No Child Left Behind (education reform) and prescription drug coverage under Medicare” during the Bush years.
“He is no compassionate conservative.....”<<<<

I saw the Toy Story "short" before the "Cars2" movie -- starring Ken and Barbie and all the toys. It was the only part of that movie going experience with my 3 year old grandson that entertained. Cars2 was a James Bond - Grand Prix meets Global Warming/clean energy villains. Just awful.
