                                   STONING  GOVERNOR RICK PERRY
Republicans were hot to trot for Governor Perry to get into the Presidential race, all polls showed yes go for it..They didn't like their choices and apparently wanted new blood to spill. Perry enters the race with a lot of pat on backs and atta boy's only to start being stoned by the very Republicans who encouraged, cajoled and swore support. They started throwing stones because he didn't debate as well as a candidate who has been campaigning for a good five years, greasing and schmoozing their way across America.
From what the  media pundits are reporting they are reading to start bailing like rats on a sinking ship.
He has presided over a pro growth state, economic and job climate ranked the best in the nation.
·        Perry is the longest tenured governor in the history of Texas. Has presided over a state that has:
·        Since June 2009, more than 40 percent job creation, building the nation’s top economy.
·        Cut taxes, including a historic property tax cut and a tax cut for small businesses.
·        Incentive funds to encourage employers to create thousands of jobs and invest in new technology.
·        He signed budgets that invested billions in education
·        He signed bills that have some of most stringent lawsuit reforms in the country..Which included Loser pays..
·        He supported low taxes, reasonable regulations
·        Spending reductions
But none of that is good enough for the fair weather supporters, they prefer to start looking for what they don't agree with. So what's getting these Republican drawer's in a bunch?      
It seems Republicans can't take the truth..He said Social Security was a Ponzi scheme well by all definitions it is.
·        He signed a bill that was approved by the Texas Legislators with only had four No Votes, that allowed in state tuition for illegal's putting EDUCATION before DISCRIMINATION. The state legislators approved the bill for in state tuition regardless of place of birth with several provisions, if that person meets all of the following requirements; 1) graduated from a state high school in the state; 2) continuously present in the state for at least 3 years; 3) enrolls in an institution and provides that institution with proof that the person has filed or will file an application for a permanent resident visa with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services as soon as the person is eligible to do so. The following states also provide in state tuition. Arizona, Rhode Island, Connecticut, California, Utah, New York, Washington, Illinois, Kansas, New Mexico, Nebraska, Maryland and Wisconsin offer in state tuition..
·        He signed executive order that would require an inoculation to prevent cervical cancer that was negated by the Texas Legislators. Stating I'll opt for saving a life anytime..
·        Because he signed a bill to educate instead of discriminate he's perceived to be soft on immigration.
·        Is this a Governor who is " Soft on Immigration"? Texas has a 1200 mile border with Mexico. During his time as governor he has spent over $400 million of Texas tax revenue to protect the border, something the federal government has been unwilling to do.
Have I left anything out..If I have I'm sure those throwing stones and abandoning the ship will let me know.. For the sake of transparency.. I am first and foremost a Texan who lives in Arizona.. be ###
