He is Governor of the 15th largest economy in the world.
Nothing against Gov. Perry but the ONLY candidate I’ll enthusiastically support is Gov. Sarah Palin.
Regardless of how “monotonous” it may be getting for some,
I don’t have entire days to “keep up” with all that’s presented on FR.
That’s why I asked for those who are demonstrating against the OP and any who even give the appearance of support to the information, to offer rebuttal information if the OP’s comments are/were off the mark.
The OP gave me his POV, which I will research since it appears none here are ready or willing to provide a factual or relevant rebuttal.
You don’t know chit about it so why do you keep running with it.

Maybe Smith lost because he wasn’t what he said he was.
Hopwood v. Texas
“Smith was an attorney in the controversial Hopwood v. TexasHopwood v. Texas
In the early 1990s, Smith filed a lawsuit against the University of Texas School of Law on behalf of white applicants, including Cheryl Hopwood, who argued they had been denied entry because the school used affirmative action to bolster minority enrollment. The case was decided in favor of the students and Smith later trumped that success during his campaigns. Smith’s opponents and many newspapers attacked him for this success. His campaign manager, David Rogers, was one of the Hopwood plaintiffs.”
lol, just dig deep then...when you are looking at the Gardasil incident, dig very very deep. One, into the make up of the Texas legislature in 2007 and the changes they made in all the education bill while they got the chance to muck ruck around in it. Every time democrats open up a bill on one issue, they use that excuse to pluck around in the whole piece of legislation.
When you start digging around about the Trans Texas Corridor, first understand that it was legislated by the US Congress, not Rick Perry, and that it is being built today because the US Congress ordered it, not Rick Perry. And if you want to knnow what his thinking was, ask me. I was on the ad hoc committe from my county. I sat in a meeting with Rick Perry who explained exactly what his thinking was originally and the problems he ran into AFTER the design.

[Governor Rick Perry] Commemorating the [Muslim Leader] Aga Khan's Visit (April 12, 2008)
(((((PING)))))
I’ve posted this on another thread, but you may not have seen it so here is my take on Perry.
Perrys support of Giuliani alone should be a deal killer for any conservative looking for a candidate.
Giuliani is pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage, pro-amnesty, anti-Bill of Rights, and he is corrupt. In fact he would be in jail except his crimes were uncovered after the statutes of limitations had run out.
On top of all of that, Giulianis wife had to get a court order to keep him from bringing his strumpet into the family home. His wife and kids first found out he was filing for a divorce when he announced it in a press conference.
ANYONE who would support someone like Giuliani for elected office does not have the judgement to be president.
Give up on the Perry hate.
And this is a problem, why?
I have, and I have also been asking Texans on this board for their opinions as well. It’s about split. The ONE BIG THING that has made me a little more than queasy is his affiliation with the head honcho muslim, aga khan. THAT bothers me. A LOT.
My FAVORITE Texan said he would prefer Perry to stay in Texas, not be president, because Texans have kept him under control. Not my words. His. I took that to heart. Is that wrong?
If you did, then you agree with his pandering to Muslims and promoting multiculturalism?
From looking at you profile, I notice you and Gov. Perry share some things.
He was a pilot in the USAF and a Scout. Even wrote a book about Scouts.

Please do take the time and research Rick Perry to make your judgment.
To my knowledge, no California governor has ever been invited so why would Perry? Maybe his invite had something to do with the 2 mile wide super highway and rail system from Mexico to Canada that he supports.
Really? Who are the 2 HUge Grocerystore and Big Ag owners?
Some folks are working pretty damn hard to demonize Rick Perry. I'm as skeptical of them as I am of any of the Republican candidates. Our country is on the express train into the sewer, and taking our liberty with it, so I'm not fixated on -- or frothing at the mouth over -- Gardasil, a superhighway and one judicial appointment. I'm still learning about Rick Perry and haven't made any decisions as to whom to support in the presidential primary, however, relying on input from people who can't keep these issues in perspective is probably not the best way to learn about Perry's position on important issues like illegal immigration, economic policy, national defense, the defense of life and the war on our culture.
