Perry must go!

I leave the state for one week and while driving back into this dry and parched piece of real estate, I hear that our numskull governor has once again bent over and inserted his head right up his ass. And he performed this act again on national TV. I can hardly wait for the talk show hosts to have a field day with this.

We are not going to expand Medicade even with the U.S. government paying for it and we are not going to have an on-line, competitive insurance marketplace for lower costs health insurance for millions of Texans.

 

Regardless of what you think of Obama, the insurance package the government is offering will do two things right off the bat. One: It will take people not paying for coverage right now – that you and I are paying for – and it will force them to either get insurance or pay a fine (Tax if you are a GOP pundit.) Two:  It will get over three million Texans coverage who do not have it today. That’s three million people off our tax dole and onto an insurance policy for coverage. That’s three million people you and I don’t have to end up paying for. Just do the math.

And your Governor, Rick “I Wish I Had A Brain” Perry is against both of those things.

Why?  Because he wants he and his hairdo on TV – on FOX TV– sounding really smart and really conservative and very Tea Partyish.  In reality, he is making Texas sound small-minded (which in many ways it is) and mean (ditto.)

It is time for Rick to go.  And I don’t mean go to Washington. I mean for him to go to Horseshoe Bay and disappear from public service.  We don’t need him any longer. What we do need is someone with some intelligence to help us get better health care in the Lone Star State.  We currently have the poorest health system out of all 50 states.

Let me repeat that for my fellow Texans…Texas…this proud and strong land…we have the worst healthcare system in all the U.S.   It just came out of research this week.  Made headlines that embarrassed the Perrymobile and its ride down re-election road, so he struck back by saying he wasn’t going to play the game anymore. He was going to take his state and leave the table of health care reform once and for all. Screw anybody who tried to stop him.  He probably already talked to Jesus about this move.

As long as you have this nitwit running the ship, you’re in big trouble and have high odds of hitting the rocks or the icebergs. Good luck, Texas. Governor Rick is speaking for you. No healthcare coverage and lower costs for the Lone Star state…instead we are going to all get re-election post cards from uncle Rick and the GOP.  Hope you don’t get sick in Texas.

Dr. Perry doesn’t make house calls….except to ask for your vote.
