Are you of the school of thought that the DREAM Act is bad when Democrats push it at the federal level, but fine and dandy if a Republican governor does it at the state level? That school of thought is incoherent. It’s like saying Obomneycare is both bad for America federally and good for America at the state level, as meathead Mitt tries to argue.

The Left doesn’t like him because of his words.

The Right doesn’t like him because of his record.

Typical alignment of style vs. substance for both.

I believe almost everything Rick Perry SAYS. I could support him as a candidate IF ONLY he believed it, too. Alas, his record speaks for itself and tells a different story than his rhetoric.

Show me where Gov. Perry pushed the federal Dream Act on Texas?

You won’t because you can’t.

But go ahead — and explain it to the thread.

Instead of vague rambling posts — try being specific.

You’re trying to absolve Perry of something he brags about? This takes apologism to a whole new level!
