Perry is just too slick to be true. In other words, he's a phony. I can see why the establishment Republicans and their media suck ups like FOX are touting this guy. They hope he can beat Obama. However they are judging him through tainted glasses. He is the chosen one, at the moment, because the establishment can't get past "look-alikes" being the only ones who can beat Obama. They will not accept principled politicians who can win. They reject the concept of "principles," they only deal with "images" and promoting RINOs. For my money Perry is all "image" and a RINO to boot. I am waiting for the scandal that will expose his real self. Has he got a girl friend in another state? If he does the MSM bloodhounds will find her.
Look at Perry. He's good-looking, so is Obama. He sure is slick and he speaks well, so is and so does Obama. The establishment Republicans pick candidates for all the wrong reasons and hide the substance of the candidate's personal philosophy. Perry, like all successful politicians, relies more on a contrived image than real substance. You look past the image and he falls apart. He's just another Progressive Republican.
Ron Paul is still the front runner. He needs a like minded VP. I'll take my chances with his age challenge. He'll be able to do more good for the country in his first six months than has been done in the last fifty years. It is important to get him elected to show the establishment that they are going out of the business as usual game.
Paul's weakest point is his wanting to end foreign aid and bring the troops home. The Israeli lobby will do everything that they can to derail his candidacy. They want that money and they want the U.S. presence in the Middle East because it takes so much pressure off of the Israeli Army and lowers the tax burden for the Israeli citizens. Our foreign aid to Israel offsets their $16,000,000,000.00 defense costs by $3,000,000,000.00. 40% of which is money borrowed by the US.

Is Texas prosperous because of Perry or in spite of Perry?

Conclusion
Perry is a globalist not much different than Newt Gingrich, Mitt Romney or Herman Cain. There is so much more I could write about Perry's governorship, but it would take a book. Texan Robert Morrow states, "Rick Perry is a Trojan Horse of statism cloaked in Tea Party rhetoric and Bible Buzzwords."
Big Government and Fiscal Conservatism http://www.newswithviews.com/Nelson/kelleigh127.htm
In 2000, when Perry took office as governor, total spending by the state of Texas was $49 billion. At the end of 2010, it had almost doubled to $90 billion. Perry campaigns on his fiscal conservatism and small government, but he has enlarged the government and budget of Texas and now the state has some severe debt problems since he took office. Although he's not raised the sales tax in Texas nor implemented a state income tax, he has raised about every other fee and tax he could think of including a surcharge on traffic violations. (As an aside, Georgia now has fees along with fines on traffic violations and they are as high as $800.00. Fines have set limits, but fees do not, so the state has found new ways to tax the people with high fees.) He also raised the franchise taxes on Texas's small businesses. As anticipated, Texas businesses paid more in franchise taxes after the overhaul than they did before: In 2006 and 2007, franchise tax revenue was $5.75 billion. In 2008 and 2009, the first two years of the revised tax, total revenue rose to $8.7 billion. Link
Perry has borrowed money for many projects in Texas which has created difficult debt situations. Link Here's the Texas debt clock, Link.
Eminent Domain
Rick Perry vetoed the Eminent Domain bill that would have helped landowners in Texas. He claimed the compensation was too high, but in reality it strengthened the protection of privately held land from being grabbed by Texas legislators. “With this veto, Governor Perry has left every home, farm, ranch and small business owner vulnerable to the abuse of eminent domain,” said Steven Anderson, director of the Institute for Justice’s Castle Coalition, a national grassroots advocacy group committed to ending the private-to-private transfer of property using eminent domain.

CGI's Basil: Rick Perry is the biggest FRAUD and PHONY in American politics http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?read=212769
So Rick Perry has tea time with the Bilderbergers when no one is looking in 2007, then he comes to a Texas Tea party in 2009, all the while ranting like a Texas version of Yosemite Sam. Perry talks about Texas sovereignty, yet he supports the United Nations, NAFTA, CAFTA and the Trans Texas Corridor.
Rick Perry has been Governor of Texas for NINE years and he read about the 10th Amendment a few weeks ago.
Here is how to tell a real economic conservative from a FRAUD and a PHONY. A real economic conservative will tell you at least 5-10 federal departments and maybe 50 federal programs that should be ELIMINATED. A Big Government Republican, like Rick Perry, will tell you its ok, just so long as Republicans, especially HIM, run those departments.
Just one example, Rick Perry is FOR the Dept. of Education and the No Child Left Behind Act. This act, which teachers hate, is where the federal government tries to run your local school to keep it “accountable.” Meanwhile no one keeps the federal government “accountable.”
Rick Perry wants to stick a needle in the arm of every 6th grade girl in that state of Texas and inject her with a possibly dangerous, possible ineffective HPV vaccine AND he wants to MAKE the parents pay for these expensive shots which run about $360. And for those folks who can’t afford this shot of insanity, Rick Perry wants you the taxpayer to pay for these expensive, dangerous and ineffective shots for them! This is the same Rick Perry who crows about how parents should be allowed to educate and raise their own kids without government interference. The HPV vaccine mandate alone is reason enough of to kick Rick Perry out of office.
Gov Perry is a Good Speaker, But a Weak Leader. Equals a true Politician,Not a Statesmen (sic): //lonestarwatchdog.blogspot.com/2011/07/gov-perry-is-good-speakerbut-weak.html
