Rick Perry: We Can't Be All Things To All People

[AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP]

Rick Perry NAILS IT! Nice job:

We can listen to the Rush Limbaugh show all by ourselves.

Paul-- I like Perry. Have for a long time. Any suggestions how I can get over my worry since I found out he is a Bilderberg? I'm not really kidding.. not at all, actually..

[marshabar1]

Obama sure tried to be all things to all people. Didn't work out real well for him. . .

[AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP]

I don't subscribe to the Bilderberg conspiracy theory newsletter-- maybe you should start a thread on the topic and provide some resources? I literally know nothing about it.

Perry will get my vote if he listens to everyone calling him asking for the groping bill to get included in the special session. If he blows that off and gets the nod, I'll sit it out or vote Independant. Not that it'd matter here in TX because he'll win this state regardless.

What the hell is the "groping" bill-- is that the anti-TSA measure? Is there some question he would oppose it?

Yes

from the Campaign for Liberty:
Rep. David Simpson, author of the original TSA Anti-Groping bill, has 102 co-sponsors for the Special Session bill HB 41. 18 Texas Senators support Sen. Dan Patrick’s Senate version of the bill, SB 29.

Now more than a simple majority of our Texas Representatives and Senators support the Anti-TSA Groping legislation, which means that HB 41 and SB 29 will pass if these bills are brought before the Special Session by Governor Rick Perry. But we must act quickly to tell the Governor the support he has been waiting for is now there – before the Special Session ends. Perry has said that he won’t add the bill unless the support is clear. Now we can see there is no excuse, no reason to delay any longer!

Let’s keep the pressure on Governor Perry!

Call Governor Rick Perry’s office – [phone] or [phone] – and let him know we have confirmation that 18 Senators now support the Anti-TSA Groping Bill, SB 29. Tell him we have the simple majority that is required to pass the legislation during the Special Session. Ask what we can do to help ensure that HB 41 (formerly HB 1937) and SB 29 make it to the Special Session.

I don't think it's that he opposes the Bills. As a politician I think he's more afraid to openly support them. If that makes sense. Just let them vote Rick. Give Utah (and hopefully many more states to follow) the help they need to get their Bills going.

Thank you. I've called a few times ( I'm originally from Chicago after all) and have yet to speak with a person. I take the phone lines being busy as a good sign. Unfortunately the latest news is there's no plan to introduce them in special session. It's a shame too. My kids love to fly. This summer we'll be driving to DC to visit my brother and next March (Spring Break) we'll be driving to FL for our Disney cruise.

How did Perry manage to use millions in stimulus funds to help close their budget gap,buit still come up with a 27 million dollar deficit get a reputation for being a budget and fiscal expert?

[AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP]

27 million is peanuts compared with IL's 15 BILLION. And I'm not certain you've got your facts right anyway- but even if we assume you do, that's peanuts.

No Il gov. has ever been accused of being a fiscal genius. A lot of other things, but not that. And you are right of course,27 mil is" peanuts",27 mil here, 27 mil there, no big deal.

I just let out a muted woo-hoo. Now let's see the vote.

I wouldn't worry so much that he is a 'Bilderberger' as I would that he gave tacit approval to murder and then tried to cover it up.

He supports in state tuition for illegals, also. Border issues are big for me, and they should be for any border state. I won't discount a person over one issue, but I do like to know what politicians think about things. I have been looking in to Perry, because I would like to find a way to support him... hey, I'm from Texas and the economy there is kicking butt comparatively... I have noticed in comments to articles that I am not the only one questioning his Bilderberg connection.. Perry is starting to remind me of Romney some. I wanted Romney last time, but my thinking has changed in many ways in the last few years. Problem IS-- it will take one of these types to beat Obama, probably, and I'm not sure much would change. I don't know. It's still early..

Hey, evt-- who did he "murder"?

[ugonow]

Didn't he pretty much legalize individuals hiring illegals also?

He failed to halt the execution of a man who was convicted based on unscientific 'expert testimony', that was shown to be wrong, when he was aware he could be innocent. Later he mucked around with the investigation into the case. Anyone with a shred of humanity would have at least temporarily halted the execution until the questions were resolved. The State murdered the guy- and the governer basicly gave the go ahead at the last minute so the murder is on him as far as I am concerned.

Interesting. I'll read over that. Make no mistake, though, I will vote ABO, no matter what. Might be better, can't be worse.

It’s $27 Billion not million, we are just below California.

[ugonow]

Oh jeeze. No wonder Paul said it was peanuts, my mistake,I meant billions. I was wondering why he said that and answered with sarcasim mode on.

You have to watch pbp and his facts. Notice how he deflected by questioning if you got your facts are right. Of course he is right your post was not correct.

[ugonow]

Duh...I even gave a link to a google search with 27 Million,and all the results showed 27 billion.
