Governor Rick Perry's campaign slogan: "I'm in it to kill it. (Medicare)"
DO NOT MISUNDERSTIMATE WHAT THIS IDIOT PERRY CAN DO FOLKS!

Since he took office 10 years ago, he has flushed Texas down the toilet and yet he gets re-elected.

EDUCATE YOURSELF ABOUT RICK PERRY BECAUSE HE WILL GET THE NOMINATION!

Read this: http://bayareahouston.blogspot.com/2007/02/its-official-texas-worst-place-to-live.html

Under Perry Texas is:
#1 in home insurance rates
#1 in air pollution
#1 in water pollution
#1 in cancer rates
#1 in teen pregnancies
#1 in citizens without health insurance
#1 in minimum wage job creation

We went from #4 in electricity affordability to #37.
We have some of the most strict tort reform laws and yet health insurance has continued to sky rocket.

2. I feel he will get the nomination. The Teabaggers love him
He keeps adding more and more to his resume to get their support (this prayer thing really was a thing of political beauty, imo). He is frightening, and even though he is an idiot, he knows how to run a campaign.

3. Medicare is us. Does he want to kill us?
Am I paranoid, or are these bastards out for our lives?

8. They will not kill all of us.
As long as our labor makes them rich. When we are no longer useful, we should be afraid. Very afraid.

5. Wow, it that a direct quote?
Even if it isn't, I don't doubt he'll do it.

That past record shows he doesn't give a shit about improving the lives of average Texans.

But I'll bet Texas' millionaires are doing just fine.

9. Because I'm sure they have private air to breathe.
Which is why the luxury bunker business is thriving. And didn't some millionaires offer to pay off the debt of a small Scandinavian country if they would grant them citizenship?

10. I Wouldn't Bet My Country On That
With teabaggers in total control of 27 states and their 270 electoral votes,
there is no such thing as an unelectable Republican candidate.

11. I don;t know about that.
Perry is stupid. Teabaggers may be stupid, but not THAT stupid.

7. Insurance rates depend on the stock market, not on tort reform.
I went to a lecture in which an insurance representative admitted that. It was back maybe 10 or 12 years ago.

Insurance company profits are from investments.
