'I wouldnt have written that book if I was going to run for the presidency,' Perry once said.
Rick Perry describes Social Security as a violent attack on core American values. He says Sarah Palin may have been right that the Affordable Care Act created death panels. He says it was unprincipled to establish the Department of Homeland Security.
Thats not the provocative, distorted language of a 2012 attack ad at least, not yet. Rather, those are words right out of the Texas governors 2010 book, Fed Up! a slim volume that may be one of the biggest gifts ever given to the opponents of a presidential candidate.
Its a treasure trove of oppo research, a target so ripe that Perry himself pointed to it last year as prime evidence he wasnt interested in running for president.
I wouldnt have written that book if I was going to run for the presidency of the United States, he said in one national interview.
