Perry is not requiring anything here from these folks...and I say “it’s about time” that corporations started spending some money to protect their (ie, our) freedom. Unions do it all the time. Corporations now have the freedom to advocate; good for them to do so.
As for Palin, good for her. If she runs, she can advocate that position. We’ll if that happens. A lot of people advocate that same position free of charge, as well.
As for Perry changing his mind, so what? This time last year, it looked like Christie, Paul Ryan, Huckabee, Mitch Daniels, Barbour and many others would duke it out for the nomination. They all passed. No one else was standing up to be the alternative to Romney.
It would have been far worse for the country if Romney had run unopposed. So far, Perry is the only one who has had the guts to actually get in the race against Romney and all of HIS money.
Will that change? Maybe.
But maybe not. When Palin announces, if she does, then we will have a second alternative to Romney.
Till then, Perry is the only alternative. And at least there is one.
Right now, Perry is apparently blocking the path they see to Palin. Now, Palin doesn’t seem to think that, and her supporters here insist that when Palin enters the race, Perry will be an afterthought.
But it appears they don’t really believe that, because they are certainly trying to burn the conservative village down to try to stop Perry.
Today they have already attacked a tort reform organization, and now a group of businesses willing to spend their own money to save our country from Obama. They’be attacked a good conservative lawmaker for having the temerity to sign up to be a Perry economic advisor.

Could you really be that naive?
Corporations spend a ton of money, mostly on democrats in the last few elections. Always to garner special tax breaks or to erect barriers to entry, or bail outs or tariffs or subsidies or many many other things having nothing to do with our freedom.
Where the heck to you think Obama got all that campaign money???
