“No he doesn’t. You gotta understand, the Perry haters Palin/Paul followers on FR have become bomb throwers.”
It’s hardly a bomb to point out well-deserved cynicism towards politicians.
Do you honestly think that Perry is not pandering to younger voters on SS with this message?
Do you honestly think that Perry will not make younger voters pay anyway - through some other means, if it’s not SS taxes?
Perry is not any more of a liar than any other politician - he’s just added a new twist to the lie of Social Security. He points out that it’s a lie and then lies about the impact to younger workers.
Yes, it’s true that SS is a lie. But apparently, that’s where the truth stops with Perry, just as it does with every other politician - Republican or Democrat - when it comes to Social Security.
If Perry is some how more truthful (or should I say “less of a liar”) than any other candidate, I will be sure to give him credit. In fact, I was doing that with the first post on the thread. Alas, I was wrong.
I don't want any President who thinks they can, by themselves, do anything. The President needs to pay attention to Congress, specifically the House. I think Perry will do as he has done in Texas. He will push his priorities but will pay attention to the Legislature knowing that is truly where the will of the people resides.
