Brian Williams: Governor Perry a question about Texas. Your state has executed 234 death row inmates more than any other governor in modern times. Have you struggled to sleep at night?
Governor Rick Perry: No sir. I’ve never struggled with that at all… If you kill one of our children or police officers or another citizen in a crime you will face the ultimate justice in Texas

Perry is so easy to listen to. He has a rare quality in his voice that has a calming, sober and intelligent appeal.
This man will rise to the very top and stay there. Especially after the general public starts paying attention and hears what tremendous wisdom he radiates.
I noticed that the other day. In fact, I noticed he was rubbing his left knee fairly frequently during that interview.
I did not know he had recently had back surgery. Wow, to have stood that long for that debate tonight must have taken a lot of discipline. My heart goes out to him for that.
It didn’t work, did it? The audience started clapping their hands before Perry even answered it. Perry did just great.
Isn’t that song’s line “Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses... I keep the country station on in the stable and I haven’t heard that song in a long time.
I’ve never given my horses beer, but they love carrots!
I bet my horse Jack would drink beer.
My husband drinks Whiskey but only Crown Royal.
Cheers!
"Each of the candidates had their moments and each showed they had a constituency, but none of the other candidates scaled that tall mountain and knocked Perry out of the front runner's role."
As a Perry supporter, glad he had the courage to come out for this hard debate and proud he did not step back from his principles, I'm glad to see this kind of affirmation. He deserved it after tonight's tough debate.
Yes indeed, also a line about stringing the outlaws all up and letting the One upstairs sort it out !!
I remember seeing a beer drinking goat in Lajitas, or maybe it was Terlingua, I believe he was also the Mayor.
There have been a number of very close calls and a few who were likely executed. Once a person has been executed, there is no motivation for the courts to review those cases.
Nah, Williams is throwing a hissy fit because Perry still executed the illegal alien 5 months ago even tho’ Obama begged Perry NOT to...
Yes, in June. And adult stem cells were also used to help for a faster recovery.
And his speeches are better than any others.
Why didn’t anyone ask Obama how he sleeps at night when, as state senator, he voted FOUR times to allow BORN babies - born because of an unsuccessful abortion - to die on a shelf.
The beer drinking goat would be a better president than Barky.
Yes I did notice when the audience approved of the death penalty immediatley. Brian’s response was so typical of his ilk. I am glad I didn’t miss that part of The Inquisition.
Brian would last about one day if we get the WTSHTF scenario. Those girly men make me sick.
It makes no difference what he thinks.
I sleep better knowing that murderous thugs have received their just rewards.
And his cross-bite produces a left-leaning jaw. badda-bing
OMG, he speaks halting? Please deliver me from another halting speaker. I haven’t heard Perry speak and I don’t plan to, but obammy is all the broken speech utterer we need. I Can’t say anything bad about perry because I know nothing about him. Don’t need to. I won’t be voting for him.
One of my favorite comedians Ron White AKA== tater salad== is from Texas and part of his routine is to say, other states are doing away with the death penalty but us in Texas have put in an express line...You kill someone in Texas and Texas will kill you back...
Who watches NBC?
Probably no one who votes Republican.
