Texas Governor Rick Perry claimed that the Recovery Act signed by President Obama had "failed," but accepted more stimulus money than any other state besides California, and used those funds to close 97% of Texas’ massive budget deficit. The Houston Chronicle reported that as of July 2010, federal stimulus funds actually created or saved 47,700 jobs in Texas.
Perry believes that public schools, clean air laws, civil rights, and Social Security are all unconstitutional, even though the Constitution says that it is the federal governments job to provide for the "general welfare" of the people.
Perry opposes the 17th Amendment, which empowers the American people to elect their own senators, instead of Washington insiders.
This guy is nuts.
