Rick Perry Releases New Ad Called "Right Track"
Gov. Rick Perry has released a new television ad, "Right Track," that argues Texas is, well, on the right track.
In the spot, Perry says that job creation is his top priority and that, since 2005, most of America's private sector jobs since have been created in Texas.
Here's the ad:
Here's the script:
Gov. Perry: “Texas is on the right path. As your governor, job creation is my top priority.”

That phrase is bullshit.

Man, politics sure is an easy life, huh?! There are no laws against lying in political messaging or debate! You can just say, "balance budget" even when we're in the hole!
Us entrepreneurs don't have it so easy. We have to tell the truth to investors, or else be locked up in prison!!
I think I chose the wrong profession!

Rick Perry would make a great ad man!
I think we ought to cut that tourist hotel tax that funds the tourist ads.
Let the hoteliers hire Mr. Perry as a private Ad Man, after he turns over the Governorship to Bill White.
Truth Hurts
Since taking office through 2007, 1,237,115 Texans have died.
Will Rick take credit for that too?
Over a million deaths people -- coulda, shoulda been debated.

This is not true or a new ad. It has been running here in Dallas now for about a month. I would like to know why I have not been hired? 850,000 new jobs? Strong balanced schools? I have friends who are teachers who would strongly disagree!!!

Wonder why the police in Bill White's home town, Houston, support Perry?

Gives Texas & Texans a bad name. Good thing not all Texans are as dumb as Perry or as dumb as he wishes we were.

What bothers me the most is being lied to.
Two weeks ago, he admitted that the budget was at least $11B in the hole.
Now, he's saying balanced budget???
What happened? Did someone wire money to Texas recently?
