More on Texas Governor Perry

Ok, lets get this straight. He doesn't believe climate change is real, it's based on "questionable" science! Yet his state is having record fires, heat and drought. He thinks "big government" should get out of spending money, and cut every possible cost, INCLUDING FEMA. BUT, he has now asked to have his state declared an emergency disaster and asking for help from, you guessed it: FEMA. WOW, double standard much? "NO big government, we must cut every government programs funding, but uh, can you wait till you give my state money for the current disasters first?"

He want's to be President of America. His state has one of the highest poverty rates in the nation, but at least all the poor folks have minimum wage jobs.  He fought against "Obamacare" and guess what, his state has the 2nd highest percentage of uninsured pepole in the nation! WIN!! And not only that, the people who do actually have health insurance pay more than pretty much any other state. MORE WIN!! One third of all children in Texas have no health insurance and they didn't go to the Dr. or dentist last year for simple annual checkups! The biggest WIN of all for him! His rich oil, corporate and insurance industry buddies must really love him. Win for big business, win for big oil, win for insurance CEO's, and utter FAIL for everyone else.

No offense Mr. Perry, but if you become the next President, I will move out of the country because I will not live in your vision of America. That's not the America I love and was born in, no thank you.
