Rick Perry at the Austin Tea Party

[lipsonline]

whiney little loser dems, spin on it

[exenrontexas]

The GOP has screwed the citizens of Texas royally. Reagan caused the oil bust of the eighties when a MILLION Texans lost their homes to foreclosure and a thousand Texas banks failed. I worked for the largest Texas bank which failed TWICE and the second largest Texas bank got sold to...Chase Manhattan who got FORTY BILLION from BUSH. Tom DeLay shamed Texas with his greed and corruption and Texas is the hope to the largest corporate fraud..EVER, ENRON.

[GaurdDuck]

I wonder if he'll still be happy to see them when they come back with pitchforks and torches?

[al5422]

gov rick perry executed an innocent man to further his own political career.

[Organjic]

Debra Medina for Gov!!!!

[tomuch619]

Gov . Rick Perry Is A CROOK. Come on TEXAS you can do better.

[tomuch619]

Gov. Rick Perry is a CROOK

[AZDbackrock]

Everything is bigger in Texas, including big fucking dicks like Rick Perry. Nothing better to do an replace arson investigators??????? Dumb fuck

[jkfromcincty]

Governor Perry to Ms. Limbaugh: Tea bag my junk, Rush.

[KatsuGuitar]

I don't know what to think about perry. what he says sounds great...but he has attended at least one bilderberg meeting. which points to the possibility that he is involved in orchestrating this whole situation. if you dont know what bilderberg is youtube it or google it.

[surfsalem7]

You people... if all you do with your life is worry about freaking conspiracy theories, you are probably part of the unemployed. And you not trusting the nations finest Governor is going down the tube for something you can't prove, nor do you know anything about seeing as how it's a SECRET meeting... who are you people to say what goes on at those meetings?

I don't know what goes on there, but if Rick Perry is there then it is not a bad thing. Get over it, he is a GOOD MAN!!!!

[blaziermissy]

I love Austin, Texas. It's just a spectecular place to live.

[rdrakken]

Hey Perry, dont mess with Texas eh?

Then please explain why you asked big government for aid for swine flu vaccines?!?

EH?

Oh yeah, you say one thing but do another just like every politician...even Paul.

[anthonyw713]

telling the govt to stop impeeding on there rights and then asking for flu shots is ok. example

If a land lord was invading my privacy i would tell him to piss off. If the water heater broke it is still his responsibilty to fix it reguardless of our oppinion of each other

[rdrakken]

Wrong analogy.

The correct anaolgy is.

Telling your landlord you are no longer going to pay rent because its too high, you think its too high because he is making the place you are living in too nice, but you still want him to give you new washing machines.

Go live in a 3rd world country where the government does nothing to make sure the standard of living is decent let alone high, then come back and talk.

I dare you.

[trlckykid]

What did Paul flip flop on? I'm honestly wondering not mad. Send me some info.

[geebeebee1]

Why does Rick Perry and the redneck Republicans hate America? Traitors.

[brenthere11]

Gee I see yor still using the racist word redneck.

[trlckykid]

Who in the hell invited rick perry to the Tea Party & why is he doing a george bush impersonation?

[surfsalem7]

Screw you!

[trlckykid]

Go and boil your bottom, you son of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called "Rick Perry"

[surfsalem7]

Haha... ooookay

Idk if that is suppose to be an insult or just to laugh at how ridiculous that is.

Yeah, you go blow your nose...

[amadeusmax]

There's a saying love America or leave it. Secession means leaving it. Isn't it Anti-American to want to leave America. So basically anyone who agree with Texas with secession is being Anti-American. Who gave this Governor the right to be able to even suggest 21 million Texans could loose their US Citizenship. If this guy doesn't want to live in America, let him leave on his own. He is not royalty. The real Americans in Texas can speak for themselves, and I'm sure they continue to be American.

[trashboniskow]

Its not anti-american because the founding fathers gave this right to the states. So its anti-Washington DC and its current policy but not anti-american.

[geebeebee1]

HAHAHA! From the news:

" House members virtually wiped out Gov. Rick Perry's office budget Friday in order to help veterans and the mentally ill. With little debate, the House on a voice vote approved erasing 96 percent of the nearly $24 million that budget writers had recommended for Perry's office operation over the next two years."

WOO HOO! Now the idiot Governor is f'd! LOL!

The state house has some brains, and told him to f himself, basically.

Rednecks FAIL.

[ksoadc7890]

texas has a hell of a lot more than a bunch of rednecks...you're thinkin of tennessee (haha jk)...

I agree with perry in his disagreement with whats goin on in washington dc...I'm not like "fed up" or anything yet I'm gonna give obama and company more time before i judge...

Also, it's amazing how much the media is attacking this! It just goes to show just how powerful the government has gotten over the years

[surfsalem7]

Actually, he doesn't care

If he only cared about his money and his budget and his own gain then he wouldn't have ASKED THE TX CONGRESS TO TAKE MONEY FROM THOSE AND GIVE IT TO OTHER THINGS!!!

Those "pet projects" the dumbass left media criticized him for funding money for (mansion restoration, film incentive fund, etc), well now he ASKED it not to be funded!! So get off his case you POS! You failed! But of course you don't hear that, the left doesn't report where they are dead wrong!

[geebeebee1]

Oh, I failed? I must've missed something -- Texas seceded? Congrats! I didn't think you'd have the balls to do it.

Idiot.

[surfsalem7]

You failed at thinking that the TX Congress "taking" his budget would hurt him when it was Governor Perry that asked funds to be taken from any of his projects and put the funds somewhere else. And guess what, you failed thinking that he ever said we were going to secede in the first place!

Way to go at failing, failure! Now go get a job.

[anthonyw713]

Did you even read the real id act or the stimulus bill?

Do you not understand what the power of the fed govt is limited to? Giving up 1/2 of your authority in the name of $ gains is crazy when the $ gains is already your money. You dont have to but security with selling off freedom read the acts i listed above

[surfsalem7]

Are you addressing me?

[anthonyw713]

No i hit the wrong button sorry

[surfsalem7]

Ok, no worries :)

[USMarine12]

People in Communist Cuba have the rights to be ignorant, stupid, and everything you've listed because you can't control that. But what you can control, is the rights of your pocketbook, the money you work your ass off for to be able to spend it on what you want, instead of spending it on people who choose not to work. United States is the land of opportunity, not entitlement. Governor Perry is standing up for he believes in and many Texan's are with him, regardless of what you feel.

[Adalgesa]

geebeebee

your funny. You get so wound up. BTW were did you get those poll results from? even if you can't post a link you can tell me. Oh and texas has 700 tanks, 8 fighter wings, Not to mention Bell helicopters main combat helicopter factories. Raytheon Missle division and Northrop Grummen Engine design facility. Oh not to mention most of the oil and most of the refineries. Lastly how do you expect to make a point when you call people names?

[geebeebee1]

The national guard has fighter jets? Really?

All of my facts were from the last U.S. Census. Youtube doesn't let me post a link.

Actually, I'm not wound up. I like getting the rednecks wound up. It's kind of a hobby.

So, all of those things you mentioned are Texas National Guard stuff, and NOT U.S. Military stuff that happens to be positioned in Texas? Because that stuff will be GONE if Texas secedes.

[Adalgesa]

Hiya geebeebee1, Yes the National guard has has jets. Its called the Air national guard. But yes if Texas secedes most of the regular military equpment and resources will be left behind and many of my brotheren will not fire on Texans just because Lord Obama orders it. Besides, we can't attack American citizens under Posse Comitatus anuway without a congressional order. Which would still be ignored. Obama can't piss on the military and then demand its loyalty.

[Adalgesa]

LOL sorry about the spelling, worked all night last night

[geebeebee1]

Oh sorry, the 75% poll was actually the headline on Drudge yesterday, all day, almost. I thought you meant the Census figures I mentioned earlier.

[geebeebee1]

NEW POLL: 75% of Texans would vote against leaving the U.S.

My take: the other 25% we would like to leave the United States AND Texas.

[RightWingNut109]

i have to believe that most people's opinion on this subject is a result of the fact that they have been living under the fed all their lives and don't really understand the concept of freedom.

[geebeebee1]

Well, if you seceded, you'd have lots of freedoms. Freedom to starve to death. freedom to get your azzes kicked by not having the U.S. to protect you, the freedom to be in complete anarchy, rednecks shooting at people as they drive down the street.

By all means, do it. It would be HUGELY entertaining.

I'd give you three months before you'd come crawling back.

[brenthere11]

That does not include the hispanic supremacist which probably 70% want Texas to rejoin Mejico.

[starznstrips]

The gay-libs have already destroyed Mich and CA! Save Texas before its too late! Califagornia is fk flat broke with all the illegals and and gay-lib social programs. I"m ready to leave CA and join the Texas fight against the gay-libs!

[hagbard72]

"Defending our freedoms in Iraq and Afghanistan".  Looks like Ron Paul's tea parties were hijacked by the NeoCons.

[hogzndogzs]

geebeebee1-I would bet you would say Texas is also full of racist too. geebeebee1, you are the racist! I dont know how many of your post on this and other videos where you use "redneck" and other words of hatred towards all Texans. What a hate monger racist! Where do you suppose so much of Texas Debt and poverty comes from? Paying for illeagle immigrants thanks to your democrat nursemaid party. I agree with most that a stand alone Texas sounds crazy,but if we did not follow such a PC congress?

[geebeebee1]

OK, here's the difference: your kind of racists hate people because of things they can't control -- color, religion they were born into, sexual orientation.

I hate rednecks because they are ignorant assholes. That is by choice. They could choose to not be ignorant assholes. But they choose not to.

A big difference. I do not hate all Texans. In fact, Texas has TONS of smart people. After this, the Republicans are done in Texas -- why I think it's great!!!

[bigtexansfan]

I AGREE!! No one is trying to take away their rights. They still have the right to be the ignorant, stupid, moronic, imbecilic, gun totin', tobacco spittin', dirty raggedy pick up truck drivin', uneducated, bigoted, inbred yokels they've always been. If you cut their heads open and tried to pour good and common sense into it you couldn't. If you took their brains and put it in a bird's head, it would fly upside down and backwards.

[trlckykid]

Bird's can't fly upside down and backwards stoopid face. Burn! ;)

[bigtexansfan]

It would with a repupubliclown's brain.

[veritas399]

I suppose some of the people who commented should read Amendment 10 of the constitution. Texas and its people have the right to determine their own destiny. No federal bureaucrat in Washington DC can hold Texas hostage. Remember, it Texas declares independence from the incompetence in Washington DC, they are also declaring independence from 11 Trillion of DEBT, and the liability of Obama's failed 1 Trillion annual deficits.

[dragonfly654]

Apparently conservatives have never heard of satire. No wonder they take Rush Limbaugh seriously.

[cimi5386]

We aret fighting in this state for Texans

[wingnut4427]

YES !! Text in FED UP.. That way they can know who you are when they come to round you up ! makes the searching easier you know ? I'm telling you. Rick Perry will betray you.

[cimi5386]

To be honest I hate him, he is in death fight for govenor with Kay Bailey Hutchison

[cimi5386]

I am not a true fan of Perry, being a Texan. But , God love him for standing up for this nation. This not a Texan theme..this is about the states. The 10th amendment should be the measure.

[musickcmo]

Actually most of us in the great american middle kind of feel like the US IQ would go up bhy about 50% if we could dump off NY, CA and a few other states. All of us "right wing extremists" - read "hardworking americans who support half of the country" are more well read than any other people group in the US

[geebeebee1]

Speak for yourself....I'm in the middle, and I think the IQ would double if we got rid of the South and Texas....plus, our money would triple...talk about a dead weight....

[EezyE4988]

intelligent comment. how would your money triple? would obama just print out more? dumbass

[geebeebee1]

Our money would triple, because we wouldn't have to support the rednecks. Do you have any idea how much we have to support the South? Look at education rates, look at crime rates...it would be hilarious if you were on your own...you'd be third world in about, oh, five years.

[EezyE4988]

prove it. you're just talking out of your ass.

[geebeebee1]

It won't let me post the link. Google the U.S. Census, state poverty rate rankings. Look at the poverty rates. The poorest states are just about all in the South. Texas is one of the better ones at NINTH POOREST!

It would be a HUGE relief for us if you guys dropped out...we would soar, and the south would join Mexico's standard of living.I think you should go for it.

So much for talking out my ass, eh? Next time, you may want to do your own research before making embarrassing accusations.

[Filmsincolor]

I had a lot more to say but youtube limits how many characters I can use so then I realized nah an intolerant person like yourself isn't worth my energy or time.

[Filmsincolor]

hmm interesting how you call southerners rednecks. I'm guessing you voted for Obama and consider yourself a "liberal Democrat" well let you know something you may not know.

1. The Tea Parties were organized by non-partisan people who gained support on the internet from true patriots who believe in the frame work of our country " constitution, bill of rights, declaration of independence, and free markets" instead of ambiguous "hope and change" and blatant socialism.

[geebeebee1]

No, I would prefer to label it, after you idiot Dubya f'd everything up in the entire country, "having a brain".

Tea Parties organized by NON-PARTISAN PEOPLE? LOL! HAHAHAHA! Yeah, that's why Glenn Beck, and idiots of his type are promoting it. Non-partisan...heh heh. Yeah.

Why didn't you threaten to secede when Dubya trampled our Bill of Rights for eight solid years?

Blatant socialism? LOL. You don't even know what socialism is, other than what Glenn and Rush tell you all day.

[Filmsincolor]

well first off I live in Seattle

I don't watch Fox news

The Protest in Seattle was non-partisan many demonstrators were Independent and Libertarian. I was there so I would know. Did you go to any tea parties??

I think you have a small chip on your should sir, it shows in f your crass words odd assumptions about peoples of the southern region. I thought Dems were suppose to be so socially tolerant of other groups??

[Filmsincolor]

(continued)

Yes BLATANT SOCIALISM.

you should go read some stuff on the topic and then look at obamas political platform, might also be of some use if you compare him to other "cult of personalities" though out history and see how well it worked out for the people that helped them gain power... you sir are ignorant for assuming I'm a right wing republican.

It's quite intriguing how you come to conclusions about people you have never met. on the internet and in Texas.

(more)

[geebeebee1]

Funny. Blatant socialism. How, exactly? This is funny. What has Obama done that is outside the Constitution of the U.S. (Never mind that Bush trampled it for 8 years)?

You lost, in fact, you got your ass kicked, in the election. So, that's the consequences of having an idiot in for eight years. Too bad.

[Filmsincolor]

(continued)

The citizens of Texas are hard working good honest americans who would give the shirt off their back to help out another human being. I've met many great men from the south whose character shined truer than any other men I have encountered.

You're like 42 dude why do you have such a combative stance towards people you don't even know?

I hope I'm not a bitter ignorant immature old man when I reach your age but then again I don't jump to conclusions about thing I don't know.(more)

[geebeebee1]

LOL. Yep, I'm bitter because your idiot (I'm calling him YOUR idiot because obviously you must love what he was doing) took our country down the tubes. Damn right I'm pissed. He ruined our world reputation, our banking system, our economy in eight short years.  If that isn't something to be bitter about, I don't know what is.

Maybe when you grow up, you'll understand.

[geebeebee1]

BTW, I know there are tons of good Texans. I know some of them. But they have dumb rednecks running things, and until they can get smart and get some decent leaders, they are screwed. And I feel bad for the millions of smart people down there (I know many) that are absolutely embarrassed by this idiot governor making a mockery of the state.

[Filmsincolor]

So I think the risk of that is rather low.

Also where the hell do you get your info about Texas???

Texas has one of the strongest economies in the union dude,they are 80% self sufficient and would mess your life up royally if they decided not to supply you with beef, produce, perishable goods, and manufactured goods. Which is were a very large majority of these things come from.

As for the military aspect they really wouldn't need much money to run an army.. everyone already have a gun

[geebeebee1]

We've already been through this - if you secede, are you just going to be a rebel state? If you expect to defend yourselves, you'll have to have a military. A bunch of rednecks with shotguns aren't going to hold off air attacks and tanks, right? Wow. Just like everyone else here, you haven't thought it out.

And the economy -- who buys the crap Texas produces? Do you really think you can NOT sell to the U.S. and be fine? LOL. Get real.

[txleapd]

Texas is home to 58 Fortune 500 companies, more than any other state. The Texas economy is the 2nd largest in the nation and the 15th largest in the world. Texas is the largest exporter of goods in the US. Texas currently grosses more than $100 billion a year in trade with other nations. Texas has the 2nd largest workforce in the US. We would be able to do just fine on our own.

[geebeebee1]

It's just about all oil; once we get going on alternative energy, you guys are going to be a barren desert. LOL.

Now I see your governor is saying he never mentioned secession! LOL! Typical Texan -- talk, talk, talk with nothing to back it up. What do they call it? All hat, no cattle? Just like Dubya.

It was fun to dream about while it lasted. It would be the most disastrous think for Texas in their history. Oh, well, we'll keep dragging you along, I guess.

[geebeebee1]

Does anyone here know how to research, or if I go outside of what Rush and Glenn talk about, you are lost? Go to the Census information, I can't post the link here because it won't let me. I'm not making crap up -- Texas has the 9th highest poverty rate in the U.S. It's fact. Look it up yourselves instead of questioning me ten times!

I'm geting weary of teaching you guys, but that's what happens when Rush is your leader, i guess....

[wingnut4427]

I love you Texas. But don't be foolish ! Rick Perry will betray you ! He's a globalist scum. He was & still is pushing hard for the trans Texas corridor. Do your research on him. Remember the G20 summit was only a month ago & now all of the sudden these people are on your side ! Question their motives ! They are up to no good & that's no good for you !

[geebeebee1]

Wow, step aside, Alaska. Texas has replaced you as the dumbest state in the Union. Go for secession....that would be SO hilarious. Roads? All yours. Military protection? All yours. Social Security and Medicare? All yours. Funny stuff.

Good luck to ya!

[cimi5386]

dude, can you say energy? Like Texas and Alaska provide what?

[geebeebee1]

It would be a small price to pay. It would force us to go alternative -- and, if Texas can't sell oil, how are you going to make money? Sell Red dirt? LOL.

Good luck to ya. Your thinking is about 1970...

[blovedbrownsfan77]

GOD BLESS TEXAS!!!!!

[ForTehNguyen]

when Texas controls a vast majority of the refining capacity of the US and 1/6 of the US Army. Go ahead and try to sell it

[geebeebee1]

LOL! The U.S. Army, as in United States! LOL! Wow, are all Texans this dumb? If you secede, they go bye-bye---you have to start your own army. Try doing that with no sales tax...wow. I would sacrifice the gas, myself, just to laugh at you guys folding like a lawn chair when you realize that you have to fund everything on your own!

[dragonfly654]

Let's sell Texas to China so we can pay off our debts.

[makokun]

Texas has the best economy of all the states, and no state income tax.

Makes sense you'd want to get rid of a producing economy you liberal moron.

[geebeebee1]

No, you're the moron....look it up, Texas is a net loss. And if you think no state income tax means you don't get taxed, you're even stupider than I give you credit for. Go ahead and secede, it will raise the average IQ of the U.S. by 10 points.

[trlckykid]

Yeah lets sell off a part of the US to a communist country to pay for overseas loans and interest on money printed out of thin air by the fed and allowed by criminal politicians to help out the elite bankers. That makes sense.
