QUESTION: what would be the best move to discourage or counter a move when someone, like obozo, for instance, takes a alpha stance & places his hand on your shoulder?
In this particular instance, Perry should have stayed in the Valley, preferably near one of the Border Checkpoint Stations on both 77 and 281. The ranches near both of these Stations are littered with the debris left by the swarm of illegals streaming across the Border to the South. Simply displaying the ruin and chaos in the Border Counties would have illustrated to a dumbed-down populace the scope of the issue. A further Press Conference could have been held with Perry flanked by an empty chair. This would have been the sort of mockery that the thin-skinned Dear Leader could not tolerate.
But, alas, Rick Perry rolled over and showed us his belly.
