Perry and Obama

I don't know if they shook hands, but at least Obama isn't stressing.

You are forgiven for yesterday's transgressions.

I cannot promise not to sin again,
but I mean well.

That's good enough for the moral relativism I run with.

Maybe you should consider a career in politics.

It's funny - Election, the Reese Witherspoon film, was just on. I don't think I have the relentless drive for self-advancement it takes.

Not everyone is front-and-center in politics. Many behind the scenes men and women make massive impacts.

Lee Atwater comes to mind.

But yea, you also probably don't know enough really really rich people to get serious into it. =(

I'd rather help people than craft policy, when one gets right down to it. I'm hands-on that way.

Perry is soft on immigration. He's never gonna get elected again.

Rachel Maddow had a segment last night on just how liberal-like
Perry can sound on immigration, at least in the past. I take it
he has been backtracking and not doing a bad job of it. I think
he's still running.

All hat, no cattle. He shook hands with the Socialist-Muslim In Chief.

Considering he's retiring to CALIFORNIA? Nope.

That stunned me. But it looks like a technical retirement
to get more benefits.

Rick Perry may be retiring from the job he's had for fourteen years, but he isn't slowing down.

"I'm not going to ride off into the sunset," he told NBC News in an interview in Washington D.C. "I'm pretty sure I'm not going to go back to Paint Creek, Texas, and shut my doors."

The Texas governor, 11 months away from the end of his record-setting tenure at the helm of the state, is sunny about a political future that could include another run for president. That decision won't come until next year, he says, but Perry insists he'll remain active in the political debate over the role of government in American life, whether he runs or not.

"All of these people are in on a massive conspiracy, and I get mocked for trying to bring it to light. Life is so unfair!"

It's not easy being the only adult in the room. :D

It was a reference to Eric Cantor's defeat - Brat used images of him with the President to infer that he was soft on immigration. But that was weeks ago.
