I love Rick Perry...

Although he did not look too smart when running for President-- He did the best informercial for Texas since Gunthy Ricker’s Proactiv

Rick Perry was the greatest thing to happen to the state of Texas when he ran for president.  I know he took a lot of grief and has been re-named Ricky Bobby (from the hilarious Will Ferell movie, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby) But you could not pay for the great infomercial advertising he gave to the state of Texas. Even Guthy Ricker and their Pro Activ infomercials can not top what Rick Perry did.  Although he made Texans look closed-minded and unintelligent, he did enlighten the rest of the country to one little fact: There are states that do not have a state income tax!  And the cost of living is low. Shocker!

Because of this and $100 oil, we are in the only state you would want to ride out this recession in.  I met a waiter several month ago at America’s and he explained that he had had 7 job offers since arriving in Texas. Pretty nice after being unemployed in North Carolina for months.

Thank you Rick Perry. Despite your seemingly homophobic-attitude you did a great service for Texas by pointing out some of our good qualities!
