Rick Perry Wants to Get Ugly With Ben Bernanke

So perry wants to bump uglies with Bernanke. Maybe marcus bachmann can make it a threesome.

261 Congressmen, or 49% of Congress, were multi-millionaires in 2010. No wonder why they don't understand how expensive college tuition is, how it feels to have a father laid-off, or even how much a gallon of milk costs..

Nothing will change as long as Congress is on big corporation's payroll. Most Congress members get their office with the support of big corporations, most laws are written by special interest groups, most Congress members (and/or relatives) will land a fabulous job with those big corporations when they leave office. Everywhere in the world, this would be called bribery or corruption - here it is legal.

WHERE ARE THE JOBS?

I think this whole thing of stimulating the economy by printing more money and borrowing against out future is just plain stupid. So I have to agree with Rick Perry on this one. We should have let the economy fail during the Bush administration and by now we would be out of this mess and the businesses that were left would be much stronger.

Is this the same Rick Perry who wanted Texas to secede from the Union?

Does Governor Perry know that Bernanke is a Republican, appointed by President G.W. Bush, former Governor of Texas?

I support that comment, but it needs to include Timmy too.

Matthew 19:24; "And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."

Illegal wars for YEARS on end, huge government pay outs to foreign aid and welfare.... Economy tanks.... Man is it really that surprising ??? You want change.... EDUCATE YOURSELF AND VOTE FOR IT. STOP FOLLOW THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA AND VOTING WITH THE CAST OF JERSEY SHORE... Unless that is you think the last 12 years have been successful, prosperous years for the majority of the nation......

Ron Paul has been fighting against Ben for years, this isn't anything new.

America is in for a treat. When this guy talks it is usually pure #$%$ Wait til you hear how he shot a coyote while jogging. Who jogs with a gun?

this is one Republican that will not support Perry

Ron Paul has been saying this for years.

Homeschoolers beware ! Rick Perry headed your way !

Well...I think Mr Perry just shot himself in the foot. Are all these guys just stupid or what?

And this is one of the top prospects for the Republican nomination? Perry has been on our payroll since 1978 - it's not like he has any recent, first-hand experience in the middle-class lifestyle.

Thanks @Willie...

Put me in charge of food stamps. I'd get rid of Lone Star cards; no cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho's, just money for 50-pound bags of rice, corn meal and beans, blocks of cheese and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, get a job.

Put me in charge of Medicaid. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant birth control implants or tubal ligations. Then, we'll test recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine and document all tattoos and piercings. If you want to reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, smoke or get tats and piercings, get a job.

Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your "home" will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried.. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, get a job and your own place.

In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a "government" job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the "common good."

Before you write that I've violated someone's rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules. Before you say that this would be "demeaning" and ruin their "self esteem," consider that it wasn't that long ago that taking someone else's money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem.

If we are expected to pay for other people's mistakes we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices.

AND while you are on Government subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes, that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Government welfare check. If you want to vote, get a job.

And Texans wonder why the rest of America thinks they aren't that bright, and doesn't take them seriously.

I don't mean to sound cruel but this is a poorly written article! I can't take the content seriously.
