The Brief: Top Texas News for June 16, 2011
The Big Conversation:
Gov. Rick Perry's swing through the U.S. this week has left some Texas Democrats — still holed up in Austin — less than enthused.
With the buzz surrounding his possible presidential candidacy now deafening, Perry, who called legislators back for a special session that began May 31, embarked on a national tour of sorts this week, speaking on Sunday at an anti-abortion event in Los Angeles and on Tuesday at a GOP dinner in New York City. The governor also took the opportunity to swing by the Fox News studios.

My GOD! Will we EVER learn? For almost 12 years our country has suffered the policies of two inept, incompetent presidents...George W. Bush and Barrack Obama. The thought of a Rick Perry presidency is too much to bear. This country USED to have intelligent leaders and what do we have now but a bunch of doofus nitwits, sexual preditors, con artists, and snake oil salesmen. I'm not voting until we get smart candidates with a REAL plan for improvement.
