Good post Bob. I'm sure you expected to get attacked as an Obama supporter. When confronted with Perry's shortcomings, the Perry crowd has nothing else.

I won't vote for Perry for the following reasons...

Rick Perry was Al Gore’s Texas campaign manager
Rick Perry endorsed pro-abortion candidate Rudy Giuliani for president in 2007
Rick Perry is responsible for Texas’ version of the Dream Act
Rick Perry opposed the border fence
Rick Perry opposed SB 1070, Arizona’s anti-illegal immigration law
Rick Perry opposed Obama’s stimulus plan but took billions in stimulus money to balance the Texas budget
Rick Perry said he was ok with NY’s gay marriage law
Rick Perry was hand-picked by Karl Rove and is an establishment Republican
Rick Perry is no conservative

Rick Perry was Al Gore’s Texas campaign manager
- He supported a Gore who was anti-abortion and pro public prayer, a Gore who voted against banning interstate handgun sales. Gore was a conservative democrat at a time that Texas was crawling with them.

Rick Perry endorsed pro-abortion candidate Rudy Giuliani for president in 2007
- This is disingenuous

Rick Perry is responsible for Texas’ version of the Dream Act
- His Dream Act gives anchor babies the ability to go to Texas Universities at in state tuition costs.

Rick Perry opposed the border fence
- In what context?

Rick Perry opposed SB 1070, Arizona’s anti-illegal immigration law
- He didnt oppose it, he said that the same bill would not work for Texas

Rick Perry opposed Obama’s stimulus plan but took billions in stimulus money to balance the Texas budget
- According to who?

Rick Perry said he was ok with NY’s gay marriage law
- He said he was fine that NY’s legislature and governor made the law, not that he was ok with the law

Rick Perry was hand-picked by Karl Rove and is an establishment Republican
- According to who?
