A novel concept huh? Something you rarely hear. And Mexico needs to quit blaming its problems on the US. It's not American drug buyers driving the cartels in Mexico...it's a corrupt Mexican culture, otherwise we'd have Canadian drug cartels invading the north border too. Until Mexicans admit Mexico sucks and take care of their own problems nothing will ever change.

BACKSTORY Perry connived his way into the presidential race----and you get the distinct feeling he connived his way into the governor's seat. That steady stream of illegals pouring into Texas tells use native-born Texans don't have much say in Senor Ricky's unbroken string of re/elections.
Senor Ricky gets away with mucho BS in Texas. Perry's been described by some Texans as a kind of a Punxsutawney Phil. When it's time for election he's out there, camaigning, pushing all the right Texas buttons. After he's elected, he disappears into his cave until it's time to wake up again.
When he does that disappearing act, big-hearted Rick gets down to the real business of governance----enriching himself. As one Texas FReeper posted: "I live in Texas. Perrys an embarrassment......an arrogant jerk who thinks the rest of us are heartless if we dont agree with giving tax dollars to Illegals.......rather than helping actual Americans."
========================================
PERRY SURFACES Perry did not officially enter the Iowa straw poll......but he calculatedly timed throwing his hat into the ring on the same day Bachman won the Iowa straw poll----stomping all over Bachman's hard-won victory. Perry cunningly manipulated the Iowa vote from Texas. That strategy was supposed to put him over the top. Instead he got a pathetic 700-800 write-ins ...while Iowa winners who did the right thing-spending time and money there- got 4000 votes each. The Perrydactyl's were cued to "say" Ricky won Iowa.
And there was Perry---front and center---waving to Iowans, taking pics in front of prominent Iowa banners---manipulating the media to make it look like he was the winner.
The winner in his own mind.
