Some interesting reads on Perry:
Perry record is one of Big Govt expansion and cronyism, aka, crony capitalism.. as well as his hypocrisy of saying one thing, but doing then opposite..such as on illegal Immigrants, and giving them tuition assistance, and Border Security, to accepting the Fed’s money to balance his Budget with, instead of using Texas resources and revenue, and by cutting excessive govt. spending.
He created 90% of Texas jobs, through the govt. sector, not the private sector.. as verified by his own Texas State Board Registry of Labor Statistics and Records, thus he is a big govt. liberal Republican party RINO.. so as he is being vetted, and being criticized rightly so, for his record, which is absolutely legitimate, thus his foundation claims of conservatism id crumbling as we speak.. from both sides of the aisle.!!

This talking point has been thoroughly debunked. It is true that about 25% of all of the new jobs in Texas over the past 10 years were government jobs. However, that number includes all levels of government employment: counties, cities, school districts, even the Federal government. So that number reflects police, sheriffs, school teachers, even Army and Air Force personnel and civilian staff working at military bases. Are you going to hold Perry responsible for the hiring that those governments did?
On the other hand, during that period, Texas created more net new private sector jobs than any other state.
