I am amazed at the Republican support for Rick Perry. I said this before, but now that he is an official candidate, I will say it again: Republican, governor, Texas—how could Rick Perry not be evil? How can Republicans be so quick to support another Texas Republican governor? Have they forgotten the liberty-destroying, budget-busting, warmongering eight years of George W. Bush? The only alternative is that they liked the reign of Bush. Come to think of it, in every poll of Tea Party people I have seen, a majority of them say they have a favorable view of Bush. Oh no.
