Us folks in Texas know what a douchebag he is. The rest of you are going to find out.
Tell us how you really feel, Mike.

I'm not sure Perry is any worse than Romney. Who's your preference for the nomination?

I don't have a preference yet. Perry is a snake. If you look up the word "cronyism" in the dictionary, you will see a picture of Slick Rick. He has stacked every appointed office in Texas with his rich friends, many of them dumb as rocks. He has single-handedly almost ruined Texas A&M with his hand-picked regents. He uses a taxpayer "enterprise" fund as a personal slush fund where he personally chooses which businesses to award with "grants." Guess who gets the money? Yes, his friends and buddies who have donated money to him.

It's very interesting what we call corruption and what we don't call corruption.

I personally am starting to believe that America is becoming more stupid and less moral. And our politicians reflect that. The cream of the crop of America is Rick Perry, Sarah Palin, and Michelle Bachmann. Reflect on that for a while.

Not the cream of the crop for America. The cream of the crop for Republicans.
