Perry's deviation from 'rock-ribbed' conservatism easily explained

This Hill article says Perry isn't too conservative after all, because Perry supported a Dream Act in 2001 and wanted to mandate HPV vaccinations for all Texas girls.  I know 2001 was 10 years ago, but back then George Bush wanted to court Hispanic voters.  Perry just followed along.  Bush and Perry were reading the demographic tea leaves.  But racist republican voters didn't care for Hispanics in 2001 and they sure don't care for Hispanic voters today.  Perry has to be elected by racist republicans and will dance to whatever tune they play.  As for the HPV vaccinations, you have to know that Perry is crony capitalist.  If it helps a crony, Perry is all for it.

The Hill is spewing propagandist cr*p about the anti-Hispanic legislation proposed this Texas session.  Perry was against the worst of it before he put sanctuary cities into the special session.  Again, the racist base wins over demographic tea leaves.  Perry got the best of both worlds, I suppose, when his business cronies, looking for cheap labor, killed the sanctuary cities bill.

Here is all you need to know about Rick Perry: Rick Perry is for whatever works best for Rick Perry.
