Now we known what the Republican Tea Partista (GOTP) poster boy Ricky Perry presidential campaign will look like; a cross dressing version of Palin’s pig with a sprinkling of Rove ala Bush.
According to news reports, Ricky’s claiming he’s the kind of president who would be “passionate” about America, and simultaneously suggested President Obama is not? This of course coming from the man – who on more than one occasion – said Texas would secede from the United States.
“I think you want a president who is passionate about America — that’s in love with America,” Perry said during a visit to the Iowa State Fair on Monday. And once again, this is coming from a guy who advocated secession? I guess secession is just folksy Texas talk for showing love for country? It’s kind of like having an affair because you love America so much.
While attending a Republican Tea Party event last night, a reporter asked Ricky whether he was suggesting the President does not love America.
“You need to ask him,” Ricky responded. “I’m saying, you’re a good reporter, go ask him”
Yeah, no political double speak there. Rick Perry is playing the same game Sarah Palin played with her “pals around with terrorists” theme in 2008. It’s tired, it’s ludicrous and it’s desperate.
Having thrown his political hate grenade, Ricky quickly attempted to change the topic by suggesting Iowans should question the President’s inability to create jobs, “I think it’s fair for Iowans to ask the president tomorrow, where are the jobs that you promised, Mr. President?” Perry said. “That’s a fair question to ask this man.”
Or maybe Iowans should ask the GOTP controlled House where the jobs are they promised to create when they ran in 2010. Of course the Boehner controlled House didn’t have time to pass jobs bills, after all it spent its first months in control passing more than a hundred bills aimed at curtailing Roe v Wade, and in holding the American economy hostage.
Ricky also called President Obama the “greatest threat to our country” and touted his own record of job creation in his state, declaring that Texas has “the strongest economy in the nation.”
Really Ricky, the President is the greatest threat to our country? Wow, so not only has he questioned the President’s loyalty, now he’s calling him a threat. And again, this is coming from the redneck hick governor who no doubt has “The South Will Rise Again” tattooed across his buttocks. How is it possible for someone to tout secession as a remedy to the county’s problems and then claim to love America? Answer, it isn’t. Perry is as phony as Confederate money, and just as worthless.
And by-the-way, Texas has the nation’s highest amount of minimum wage jobs created in the last ten years, not real employment you can live on, basically slave wages. Of course slave wages is something a Texas governor can understand. Perry is achieving what I never thought possible; he’s demonstrating there is another Texas governor with less of an IQ than George W. Bush.

Of course Jefferson Davis was passionate about America too – the Confederate States of America!
