Rick Perry Post your Anti-Perry news stories here, need to kill his buzz.

It's such a baffle to me how he continues to be reelected as Texas Governor. The man is genuinely stupid. I honestly do not know a single person who respects him... even my grandfather who is very conservative and religious calls him Rick the Dick, Dick Perry, etc.

I remember quite a few ad campaigns during the Gubernatorial election by Dick that literally made me LOL and enraged me at the same time, particularly ones where he was keen on bashing the Obama stimulus even though he took what they gave to the state and then begged for more. The man even had the nerve to do this:




Here's SOME of the information of the stimulus issue. http://www.politifact.com/texas/statements/2011/apr/24/barack-obama/president-obama-says-gov-perry-used-stimulus-fund-/
Back to the stimulus: On Feb. 18, 2009, the same day Perry accepted the federal funds, the governor slammed the legislation as being "full of pork and special interest handouts." On his campaign website, Perry wrote: "The Democrats think this bill will change our country's financial fortunes, but you and I know better. … This administration is saddling future generations with an increasingly unbearable debt." He then urged readers to sign an online petition telling "Washington" that they are "fed up with bailouts."

I remember a big debacle a few years ago when he was pulled over by a Texas State Trooper and tried to pull his ... charm... over on her.




The thought of his inevitable BS in future debates about how Texas isn't in debt and how he fights special interests makes me nauseous. This POS needs to be stopped.
 


Well there is this utter lie (the only one... are you kidding me?)

I'm sure you guys have everything else covered. This just really bothered me.
 
Tea Party Texans Diss Perry

Rick Perry has zoomed to the top in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, but members of one group of Texans are not so thrilled with their governor: tea party activists.

Texas tea partyers are disenchanted with Perry because they feel he has flip-flopped on a number of key issues, including immigration and federal stimulus funds, Roll Call reports.

“A lot of what he’s done doesn’t measure up to his rhetoric,” said tea party activist Don Zimmerman, a member of the Texas State Republican Executive Committee.

Critics in the tea party also point to Perry’s ties to corporate donors and the inner circle of the Texas GOP.

“Both party establishments are growing government, and Rick Perry is just kind of a poster boy for that,” Debra Medina, a tea party leader who challenged Perry during the 2010 Republican gubernatorial primary, told Roll Call.

Perry is also competing against fellow Texan and true tea party favorite, Rep. Ron Paul.

“I think the heart and the soul of the tea party is with Ron Paul,” Zimmerman told Roll Call.

Perry himself doesn’t seem too worried about the criticism from within his home state. When Fox News asked him why some Texas tea party groups don’t like him, he replied, “A prophet is generally not loved in their hometown.”
 
He's a liar and had stated and pledged numerous times that he would NOT run for president in 2012:


Rush Limbaugh wants Rick Perry to run for president. What will Perry do?

Rick Perry says he’s not running for president.

He’s said it again and again. And again.

And yet the stories keep popping up, in publications as diverse as the liberal The New York Times, the conservative weekly National Review and the political junkies’ bible, RealClearPolitics.com, speculating about a possible Perry candidacy for president of in 2012.

Wednesday, the rumors hit fever pitch when conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh delivered a 20-minute monologue extolling the Texas governor as the kind of anti-Washington conservative who could drive Democrats “nuts” and pierce President Barack Obama’s aura of re-election invincibility.


He endorsed The Ghoul in 2008:

Perry endorses Giuliani despite differences on abortion rights

(10/17/07 - WASHINGTON) -- Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani on Wednesday won the endorsement of Texas Gov. Rick Perry, despite their differences on abortion rights.
 
Perry is expecting to get $250 million each from two different bundlers and have SEVEN different SUPER PAC's. That is some serious money. As the article below states it has in the past been from just a few sources. He has raised $102 million for his governor races. Half of that came from just 204 donors or almost $255,000 average for those 204 donors!

It is going to be tough with our (maybe) $25 million in comparison to Perry's $500 million he expects not even including his 7 super PAC's.
