Perry Will Meet With Obama, White Won't
WOAI ^ | 8/8/10 | Jim Forsyth

Posted on 08/09/2010 7:16:02 AM PDT by laotzu

When President Obama arrives in Texas on Monday, he will be greeted by the state's top Republican official, but the state's top Democrat will be nowhere to be seen.

Gov. Rick Perry will greet the President when he gets off Air Force One at Austin Bergstrom Airport.

The President and the governor will have a brief talk about immigration.

But Bill White, the Democrat who wants Perry's job, will not be there to greet the leader of his party.

A spokeswoman says White has 'no plans' to meet with the President.

The Perry campaign has worked hard to tie White to the unpopular President, and would love to have a photo of the two together to push his campaign's theme that White is a 'liberal trial lawyer' who cannot be trusted.

White will be campaigning in Johnson County, in north Texas, Monday night when Obama is forty miles away in Dallas, but there are still no plans for a meeting.

The President will hold fundraisers in Austin and Dallas, ironically to help raise money for White and other local Democrats, and he will appear at a public event at the University of Texas.

Dem candidates appearing with The Once will be like walking around in a thunderstorm with a lightning rod in your shorts.

White is a walking re-creation of a “peckerhead” Looks the part and his track record cements the moniker....

Here is some more of Whites comments about Obama..Yet on our local news they said that White had other obligations so he could not meet Obama..White is another filthy democrat that would support the Muslim if he won governor of Texas,and would take Texas down the same road that the other part of this country is down,poverty....He does not have anyone here fooled..

We all know White and Obama will meet in secret plotting meetings asking where to send each other money from the private slush funds. Perry will be there because he is the Governor.

No muss; no fuss. None of those natsy headlines or stories to detract the left; only the right.

Help Texas watch her borders.
Watch live on 14 cameras and report illegal alien invaders.
Night cams in operation

http://www.blueservo.net/index.php?error=nlg

Does it work? Yes.
Recently caught on cam and reported:
String of illegals running through brush with backpacks
Numerous sightings of boats crossing the river
Numerous vehicles late at night in isolated areas
IMMENSELY satisfying

I really don’t like Perry, but would take him over White. I think this is just another way to rub salt in White’s wounds. Perry meets with Barry, since he’s the current sitting governor. Perry meeting with Barry highlights that White refuses to. I just wish there was a conservative running instead of Gov. Good-Hair.

Please oh please oh please, somebody yell "Coyote!" when Perry is in the room with Barry.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Oh, I'm familiar with the Pecos Perry schtick ... but the last time I looked (from beautiful downtown Pearland) it was Pecos, not Peco's

Hence my confustion as to your locale.
