I guess the fact that Congress is a Co-Equal branch of Government completely outside the authority of the President sailed right over the head of Perry and his supporters.

Perry is writing political checks here he cannot cash.

+1. What do you expect someone who tries to use Executive orders like a dictator to inject little girls with toxic substances in return for money? He’s merely repeating what his handlers have told him to get the gullible on board. People said Herman Cain’s 9-9-9 couldn’t pass because it would require the cooperation of the Legislature, yet someone thinks that this (hypothetical, since it would never happen without a civil war) dictatorial power grab would somehow be just cheesy. I realize that the overall intelligence of the Nation has gone down, but you’d think that people who label themselves “Conservative” would realize that what they’re conserving is the U.S. Constitution, and that LIMITS presidential powers. If Rick Perry wants to limit Government, he should start with the Executive branch in the state he holds. Ruling by Executive order (in exchange for campaign contributions, no less!)indicates that he’s the big Government liberal we all know him to be.
