An interesting read. High points for lazy ppl:
W famously styled his politics with the brand of "compassionate conservatism." Perry's is more like kick-ass conservatism.
Bush might have contemplated reductions in health care for budget cuts and forced up your property taxes with a legislative shell game, but he would have at least felt bad about it. Perry would tell you either not to get sick or make enough money to buy your own damned health care and shut up and pay your property taxes because we need you to underwrite all the tax breaks we give corporations coming to Texas because they are going to make campaign donations.
