Gov. Rick Perry is once again slamming “out-of-state interest groups” backing former solicitor general Ted Cruz in his runoff with Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst –this time tweaking Sarah Palin, U.S. Sen. Jim DeMint and Rick Santorum by suggesting their states could learn a lot from Texas, but Texas doesn’t need their advice on choosing its next U.S. senator.
Perry, standing staunchly behind Dewhurst, brushed off the question about whether his own tea party credibility may be damaged by his opposition to Cruz, who has been endorsed by national conservative and tea party groups and figures (including Palin, DeMint and Santorum) in the runoff for the GOP nomination for U.S. Senate.

Without naming Palin, DeMint or Santorum, Perry called them to mind by naming their states: “I appreciate everybody paying attention to Texas – as well they should, they could learn some things on how to run South Carolina and Pennsylvania and Alaska.
“Come to Texas and learn how to do it right, but don’t come down here and tell us who needs to be our next United States senator, thank you very much. We’ll decide that without your outside, Washington, D.C.-oriented help,” Perry said.

Harold Ford is Black? Well, ethnically, I guess.
Man! He was fun!
“Uhh? What does your lineage have to do with what type of Texan Perry is or for that matter what kind of Texan you are?
Austin? “Berkley on the Brazos” you didn’t do yourself any favors there.
Perry’s a politician,his policies and opinions change quicker than the wind direction so to have an opinion about him is foolish. I think Perry is just an old “dirt farmer” that’s way out of his league but he’s still more Texan than the clowns that try to put us in a box.
Tell you what Mr uber-Texan. Get a 2 or 3 year old truck and take a tour of the “Rustbelt” then get back to me. “
You asked the question.
Since you are not really all that interested in anything but your own opinion, I will leave you tagged as others on this thread has done.

Thank you
And another one bites the dust!

According to the FedGov, it’s their problem and we shouldn’t interfer.
You have been keepin up, right?
Thank you for that. Now, maybe you could do something about the cross forum bickering. It gets real tiresome when posters bring garbage from another site to mess up threads here.
Ping. Speak of the devil...
Rick Perry, 2012
Not to mention when he outright implied it.
That video is really growing on me! I watch it every time you post it to me.
I’m guessing/hoping that’s his tail.
A very obnoxious one that one was. Good riddance.
He may as well have just avered it.
Tsk. Of course. ;-P
You’re welcome.
Not a Romney fan. Also know that Perry runs to the right when he is up for re-election and then laughs at things like deporting illegal immigrants.
When Kinky Friedman ran for governor here, we had 4 Democrat candidates (or “former” Democrats) and one libertarian candidate running.
Perry was a Democrat in the 80s. So was “one tough grandma”. And Kinky. And Chris Bell.
