Perry to Tour North Texas Tornado Devastation
Gov. Rick Perry on Thursday will tour the devastation wrought by more than a dozen tornadoes that ripped through the Dallas-Fort Worth area, damaging hundreds of homes and leaving several people injured.
“We’re thankful that there’s been no reported loss of life at this point in time,” Perry told reporters at the Capitol on Wednesday. “We know there are a lot of North Texans who are digging out of rubble and seeing life possessions lost to these storms.”

Stay away, you worthless idiot. The air is now clean; don't foul it by showing up for a "Good job, Brownie! photo-op"

Let's see if he asks for federal aid.

What do you mean, Kim.. "Let's see if he asks for federal aid".. "Disaster relief" is big business.. if somebody's making money off it (and it's not a political hot-potato), then you know little ricky is going to be begging Big Daddy for some scratch..

I'm sure any federal aid will be redirected to tax breaks for major donors, and I'll give you three reasons why...

Oh boy, Rick is coming! Now I feel better. What a friggin' loser. There's three things he's going to do...but he probably forgot them.

Im glad to see Perry taking charge to help Texans. I would not count on the fraud and traitor to lift a finger in aid to help Texans besides he is to busy run for office witch he should have never gotten if he was vetted by all the media O ya thats mean you sorry liberals control media. Well guess what he is all liberals mistake and one day they will have to face the music for this fraud and traitor Obama. I see a sweep on democrats this next election. That will be a good start on democrats paying up.
Anyone BUT the fraud and traitor Obama and democrats!

Big Whop. I can picture him tippy toeing around in his pointy boots. Wait, it's orthopedic burkinstocks for him now. Is it wrong to have this much fun?

Yeah right, from a Bush helicopter. Ewww don't touch me. How does one continually take photos that make one look like a deer in the headlights? Say gov, been to Bastrop lately?
