Ahaaa....now we're getting to the bottom of this. Sounds like maybe you took the budget axe from the legislature? If not, care to share why he's been a personal thorn in your side for years?
I'm also a Texan and nearly lost my job due to the cuts. Rather than whine and sniff about Perry, I recognize he's a true FISCAL CONSERVATIVE and balancing the state budget comes before my precious job.
Its called BIG picture and not being selfish, in my case. Not sure about your's. My guess is you'll go silent and continue to view Perry and his supporters as mean and nasty for your own selfish reasons.
Is that right on the money?
I am a property owner. Perry's enthusiasm for Eminent domain really upset me. Private property rights are important to REAL conservatives. The fact that families were facing losing old family farms was a problem.
My step-father, the man who raised me, was killed by an illegal alien who then fled back to Mexico in order to avoid prosecution. Perry's lack of support for Jan Brewer upset me. The fact that he didn't say or do a darn thing about our sanctuary cities upsets me. The fact that I'm paying higher property taxes in order to provide and education for the children of illegal aliens upsets me.
ow, do I believe that ANY of that will sway you in the slightest?
Nope. You're a Perry supporter. You've already heard all of this and it didn't matter to you in the slightest. You'll twist his record to try to cover up the stink, call me names, then march on to troll the next thread.
I only answered because you asked why I had a personal problem with Perry. Now you know why. His decisions had the potential to affect, or did directly affect, my life. I see that man as a direct threat to my family's welfare. He has poor decision-making abilities and he does NOT have a foundation firmly rooted in conservative ideals.
IMHO, Cain does.
