As most of you probably know, I am no fan of Governor Rick Perry. If you didn't know that, well... I'm not a fan of Governor Rick Perry. I'm glad that's out in the open. Setting aside the fact that Texas found the one person in America that is a living, breathing caricature of
George W. Bush (who was, on his own, an amalgam of every Southern stereotype), I can't stand Rick Perry for the following reasons:
1.) My cats could probably beat him in a debate, and I'm pretty sure one of them is mentally challenged. Seriously - he runs into walls and tries to bite
lit candles.
2.) He puts himself on this pedestal of righteousness that he doesn't deserve. The man is a con artist, and any fifth grader with access to Google could tell you the same. Roughly eight years ago,
Perry tried to earn himself, the state of Texas, and Wall Street speculators money off of the deaths of retired teachers with a life insurance scheme. Would the families get anything? No. And just the other day, my fellow blogger over at
Jobsanger wrote a great post about how Perry "retired" in January-
while still governor of Texas -and is now
receiving both a salary and a pension.
3.) Uhhhh.....uhmmmm.....I forgot. Oops.
