Perry uses inappropriate forum to criticize Obama
The Houston Chronicle reported Saturday that Gov. Rick Perry appeared at the Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth to promote his 2010 gubernatorial campaign’s sponsorship of a car in Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Race.

While there, Perry offered up a few choice words for President Obama.

“The message there was, ‘You’re from Texas. We don’t care about you,’” Perry said in reference to a recent address by Obama, in which he discussed adding jobs at the Kennedy Space Center but failed to mention Texas.

“I tell people this president has put a target on Texas’ back. Whether it’s programs that he’s talked about from the standpoint of making Texas an example, if you will. And I don’t appreciate it,” Perry said. “If Washington wants to get it right, come down to Texas, and we’ll show you. It’s pretty simple, actually. Don’t spend all the money.”

1. Perry is once again leading in the race to the bottom.
Every time he opens his mouth, he enlarges the realm of the possible.

2. He's just a right wing talking point
Perry is good at that one thing - being a right wing puppet. He knows how to act for the rabid base so that he'll get his monetary reward from his masters. Pavlovian republican dog.

3. He is an opportunistic poison spewer.
Instead of trying to make Texas better, he would rather demonize Dems and Obama. Very sad.
