First Read - Perry religious event draws scrutiny, carries potential risk


Okay - I will not go into the separation of church and state here. Although, that is another concern for this event. But my concern stems from this "prayer-in" is that he is seeking support from the big man with the cowboy hat in the sky for help bringing down unemployment. Really? Are you from the same party that is against tax hikes for the wealthiest of the wealthiest of this country? But is it that those tax hikes would help balance the budget while not impacting the class that is now impacted by the recent debt deal? Really, praying to the big guy with the cowboy hat in the sky is going to solve this? Apparently, I'm not the only one who see though this absurdity. Only 8000 tickets of a 70,000 seat stadium have been claimed. Ha Ha Ha HA! This should be viewed as a BIG rejection of his bigotry...

  1. But prayer worked so well in ending Texas' drought problems.

    Seriously, though. Republican appeal on a national level is so limited anyway that him dropping in on an evangelical session like this isn't going to make much difference in the long run. Review the demographics of what type of voter that appeals to and understand that those types of people, on a national scale, are losing appeal.

    And there are no saviors for Republicans, that enter a race late to save the day. If Governor Good Hair had any appeal, he'd already be in and raising money.
