Zajko, you have to follow the advice of your own tagline. Thankfully Perry will eventually run out of money despite the socialist fatcats propping him up. Then he can slink back to Texas, you know, that place he promised to fulfill his term in and not run for higher office.

Disclosure reports show that neither Bob Perry [Perry Homes/home builder] nor his wife have donated to Rick Perry's presidential bid. Bob Perry has given money to other candidates but not to Rick Perry. The biggest recipient is Mitt Romney. Bob Perry and his wife gave a combined $5,000 to Romney's early this year and $500,000 to the super PAC Restore Our Future that supports Romney.

In 2008, they supported Romney's nomination with a $5,000 donation between them. According to disclosure reports Gov Tim Pawlenty received a combined $10,000 to his presidential campaign and another $60,000 to his political action committee from Bob Perry and his wife. Bob Perry is also the top donor to the Karl Rove-linked super PAC American Crossroads.

*****************

Donors to Bush absent for Perry [9-1 support Romney] WASHINGTON — Fewer than one in 10 of the top fundraisers who helped George W. Bush shatter records for presidential campaign money in 2000 and 2004 have donated to Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s 2012 presidential campaign, a Houston Chronicle analysis of Federal Election Commission data has found.

Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney holds a wide lead over other GOP presidential hopefuls in donations received from the 939 “Pioneers” and “Rangers” who raised at least $100,000 each for the Bush presidential efforts."

Good advice, and maybe I should take it, with apologies to whale omelets everywhere :)

Not only is zajko wrong, but also his tag line is incorrect.

The saying goes, "Never try to teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and annoys the pig."

It applies far more to you mainly-slime-media-spouting Perry pesters than it does to Cincinatus' Wife.
