No food stamps unless you are an illegal.
Not to mention the $368 M dollars in taxpayer funded and failed corporate welfare he's engaging in for jobs that fail to materialize.
We Texans have our own version of Obama style stimulus going on here thanks to Perry.
>>Been vetting and making Perry a better governor for years.
Well, who "vetted" Thomas Jefferson out of the Texas school curriculum?
If that's the kind of "vetting" the rest of the American Republic can expect from the supporters of Señor Rick then....
NO SALE.
>>I have kind of lost track since then.
Well, here - you can catch up on current events:
Remember the Alamo!
Y’all should read what Perry’s said in “Fed Up.” He calls unemployment, “welfare.”
I’m about 1/3 of the way through it, highlighting and copying notes.
He also must have been reading Mark Levin while writing:
“The truth is, I dont care what party the statist is in. The fact of the matter is, it is the statist, and those who support or enable him, who is the problem. For too long he has undermined this country by empowering the national government at the expense of liberty. An America defined by the statist in Washington is an America doomed to fail.” p. (location 338 Kindle)
“In the wake of the New Deal, We have allowed Progressives to successfully frame the debate. Republicans constantly allow themselves to be trapped into thinking they are against people if they oppose certain programs.” location 945 kindle
You haven’t posted anything but long-winded speculation and a loose connecting of fantasy dots. You sure are an arrogant turd.
"This group [La Raza (The Race)] is the largest hispanic civil rights group in the nation "

[La Raza]Violence in Denver
The success of the alternative school and Gonzales' political achievements were overshadowed in 1973, when a man was arrested for jaywalking in front of the Crusade's headquarters.[20] A protest against the persecution was organized, leading to confrontations between demonstrators and police. Soon, a gun battle erupted, and a bomb exploded in the upper floors of the Downing Terrace apartments, which were in the possession of the Crusade.[21] One man was killed and seventeen were injured, among them 12 police officers. Gonzales accused the Denver police department of grenading the facilities, but a detective described the scene of the explosion as a "veritable arsenal".[22] Historians and scholars have yet to evaluate the impact of the bombing, but later prosecutions of Crusade participants served to diminish the influence of Gonzales and his organizations.
After this incident, Gonzales retreated into the private life of his family and Denver's Chicano community. He was still active in the movement, although he maintained a much lower profile.[23]
Have a nice day, ignorant Quisling.
A couple of problems with your argument. Mostly that it is dated. Some years ago it would be spot on, but right now unemployment is ferocious. In real terms, we’re talking 17%+, close to one-fifth of our adult population.
These are people who have never been unemployed, want to work, and are scared half to death.
Certainly there are many several-generational families getting food stamps and misusing them. But these Obama voters are never going to vote Republican anyway. When you get middle class people who feel forced to go on food stamps, they are scared and dangerous.
There are also far more of them than food banks could feed.
Now, I am not advocating that these people be kept on food stamps indefinitely. But even if the Republicans get both houses of congress and the presidency, it is likely going to be nine months to a year before the economy starts picking up again, enough to stimulate hiring.
And it will not cripple our nation any more than it is right now to keep feeding them until then. Even during the Dust Bowl, America had too much food, the excess of which the government spends a fortune to expensively warehouse. And if Republicans do what Reagan did and open these warehouses to the unemployed, it is not going to hurt the rest of us one bit.
Ya know, I could almost have given Perry a pass for his stupidity in legitimizing a racist organization like La Raza (THE RACE) with his political prostitution. That is the nature of the Political Prostitute, after all.
What’s amazing is the degree to which some ignorant posters here will contort themselves to deny the racist nature of La Raza and its violent anti-American past.
What the Perry Parrots here can’t seem to grasp or acknowledge is that La Raza ooozed out of the same leftist mold as the Weather Underground — and with “supporters” like that, Señor Rick doesn’t need enemies.
NO SALE
You are nothing but hot air. Keep blowing your nonsense around town. Governor Perry has a lot of support from all racial groups in Texas. You know why? Because people are working and doing well, for the most part. You sound like an ignorant racist and extremist. You are way off the tracks and blowing through the woods. Laughable.
Although Jefferson had been listed in a World History standard, the board removed his name from a list of European Enlightenment philosophers that included John Locke, Thomas Hobbes, Voltaire, Charles de Montesquieu and Jean Jacques Rousseau.
This was inappropriate placement of Jeffersons name, said Lowe of the World History proposal. Jefferson was not himself an Enlightenment philosopher, although he was heavily influenced by the writings of these individuals. But to say the State Board of Education has removed him from the TEKS is inaccurate and irresponsible, said Lowe.
The Texas Governor appoints the TEA head but, not the individual members.
Pinning whatever to Perry in this case, is ludicrous.
>>You sound like an ignorant racist and extremist
La Raza “THE RACE”
Idiot.
>>Pinning whatever to Perry in this case, is ludicrous.
Not pinning that on Perry - pinning it on his idiot Anti-Jeffersonion “vetters”.
They addressed that claim and denied it. You didn’t want to read it. If you don’t at least want to study your enemy, then that’s your call to make. Have a good one.
You should be glad the TEA disassociated him from them.
Bull cheet.
Bill makes excellent points. You on the other hand burp up comments, with little thought. No offense though.
