With the possible exception of North Dakota - which recently had something like the biggest oil find of the century - Texas is the greatest economic success story of the country. On Perry’s watch.

Let's put a couple of things into perspective - the Barnet Shale, the first BIG fracking find in TX was started without any help from Perry. The research, on fracking, started in the 1980s and drilling was on private lands or lands owned by cities, dfw airport etc. etc. 50,000 jobs but not much Perry did for that.

AT&T, Verizon, Nokia. TI and loads of other telecom related companies live and hire in Dallas - all those cell phone towers across America send money to DFW. Nothing started or paid for my Perry. Perry is like a certain former president, he thinks because he crows he makes the sun come up. Conservatives need leaders that don't waste tax payer money to get reelected.
