Rick Perry's Texas A&M Transcript
A 1.9 grade average is nothing to brag about.
Hey Conservatives! A couple of questions, if you please.
Why the contempt for intellect? You championed George W. Bush, Sarah Palin, Christine O'Donnell, Michelle Bachmann and now Rick Perry. None of these folks can be considered a deep, intellectual thinker who is naturally curious and willing to consider other view points. When we did elect an anti-intellectual (Bush 43) things did not turn out well. Why try it again?
Why the mistrust of science? Science has shown that we can harm our planet by polluting, yet you dismiss the science. Why? I'm guessing that such findings might cut into the profits of private corporations. This further allows me to conclude that, by this reasoning, profits are more important than health. Science shows that mankind was not deposited on this planet wholly formed and developed, but evolved through the ages. Why dismiss this science? My guess is that such science insults your notion that God created mankind as he appears today.
Why do you avoid the tried and true American political tradition of compromise? The very constitution we all venerate was born from compromise. Yet your contemporary politics shows clearly that petulance trumps accomplishment and stubbornness is valued over co-operation.
The government does not redistribute wealth from the standpoint of taking money from one and giving it to another
When government uses it's power, as Perry and most other politicians these days do, to manipulate people and business with ad hoc tax rates, tax credits, incentives, mandates, special regulatory exemptions, etc, etc, it is most certainly redistributing wealth.
I'm trying to gather information about Perry since I might consider voting for him in 2012 if he is the nominee. (That is, if I vote.) So I asked my Republican friend what he thought of Perry. His reply was "He's kind of dumb. He says dumb things."
FWIW.
