I Didn't Say What I Said!
Small wonder that secessionist Confederate cowboy Gov. Rick "Hair" Perry's staff is denying that Hair said the things that he wrote in his book, "Fed Up!" The book, published only 10 months ago, is a treatise that could have been written in 1930 by a right-wing crank, and will likely provide the fuel for Hair's implosion. Among Hair's targets in the book? Roosevelt's New Deal. Yes, you read that right. The more that is learned about Hair's bizarre philosophy, the more country club Rethugs are recoiling at the thought of his nomination. While he may be a winner in the far right Rethug primaries, his views are toxic (to borrow an adjective from Turdblossom Rove) in a general election.
