Impeach Perry! Impeach Perry!
Guess who’s got his own Executive Damn Order?
Yeah, Rick Perry. The man without a plan.
So, here’s the deal. Perry has issued an executive order that starts right now this minute that all state agencies have to use E-verify before hiring anybody. E-verify is “a federal electronic employee verification system that aims to prevent the hiring of illegal workers.”
Four years ago, at the height of Perry’s conniption fit about the federal government, he said that E-Verify would not “make a hill’s beans of difference” when it comes to what’s happening in America.
But now he says it’s shiny, dandy, and painted red.
“The E-Verify system has been improved, it’s been streamlined and it currently is the most accurate and efficient way to check a person’s legal work in the United States,” Perry said. “Though any steps taken at the state level must be backed up by a real federal commitment to fixing a broken system.”
Holy cow. Did that man just say that the “federal government” needs to fix the broken system? Those smart glasses must be working overtime. Or not at all, depending on your viewpoint.
He’s issuing executive orders and asking for federal help. Did he wake up in a new world today?
Thanks to Candyce for the heads up.
Is Perry advocating E-verify for Texas ag businesses also? Doubtful.
1Probably wants an e-verify system in every home to make sure the guy cutting your grass is legal.
2Gasp! Perry the Pragmatist. Now how about expanding Medicaid?
3LOL – I guess he really doesn’t like Abbott – start issuing a slew of executive orders 27 days and counting before you hand over the reins and let him inherit the mess.
Oh wait it is already a mess!
4Be careful what you wish for,Perry. Your work as Goobernor hasn’t exactly been aboveboard or legal,now has it?
Der Kommisar A-Butt and 17 other dipsticks have banded together to sue Obama again. Didn’t pay attention what this fiasco was all about. Maybe they want him to plead guilty to being innocent of wrongdoing in Benghazi.
5Net immigration is now NEGATIVE, meaning we are deporting more people than are sneaking in.
What exactly needs to be fixed, there, Junior?
6See, this is what happens when a person travels more then 20 miles from the place they were born. It open them up to a whole new perspective and point of view. pRicks trip to Europe must have been a real eye opener.
7The derp runs deep in Perry. Incensed that the smart blah guy issued an executive order regarding immigration, the st00pid white pile of derp decides to give it a try.
But Governor can’t count to and retain 3 forgets, he leaves a trail of money to follow. It’s Alfredo Time! Which of not so slick Ricky’s pals stand to benefit from a boost in E-Verify stock, and are there ties between E-Verify and Experian?
8daChipster, what needs fixin’ is not perry as much as the people who own him. Him, and people like him, have marching orders to sell, promote, FEAR as this is what keeps the moneyed power structure to do biz behind the scenes, IMO.
9Asking for federal help is somewhat new. Usually he’s just busy pocketing federal money. He then helps himself.
10To paraphrase the immortal words of Dean Wormer, “… stupid is no way to go through life, son.”
11the glasses just “do it” for this guy…someone must have told him they were x-ray glasses, like the kind ya used to be able to purchase from the back of a comic book…now, he never takes them off…
12Micr –
I don’t think Perry could would have made it through Faber College’s rigorous admissions process. And if he had, even Delta House would not have pledged him.
What I’m trying to say here is, sadly, Perry could have used Dean Wormer’s words of wisdom as a young man.
13Hate to contradict you, Rick, but Perry DID go to Faber College! At the time he went by the name Greg Marmalard and he was president of Omega Theta Pi. There were persistent rumors that he and Dean Wormer had frequent off-campus trysts.
14You may all laugh about Marmalard, everybody, but I have proof.
According to the Animal House prologue, after graduation from Faber, Marmalard became a Nixon White House aide and was subsequently raped in prison in 1974.
15WOW! Delta Tau Chi rules. Wooooof!
16I wanna know when this book is coming out from JUANITA JEAN’S. It should be a best seller. I’m saying, start writing it now, maybe it can be ready by next Thanksgiving, or whenever Christmas starts next year.
17Also, we might could sell it in TEXAS STAR TRADING POST OR COMPANY or whatever it’s called. No, I am not advertising, just saying. Also the gift shop in the Capitol? Woo, they’d prolly get shut down for selling JUANITA JEAN’S HIGHLY SECRETIVE COMMENTS.
18He is such a hypocritter.
19Where is the impeachment petition? I will definitely sign.
20Where is the impeachment petition? I will definitely sign.
21Can someone please E-Verify that Rick Perry actually has a brain? Thank you.
22Re: the brain. i think it was one of those in a jar which were destroyed in 2010. Hasn’t mad much of a difference.
23So what you’re saying, Gov, is that under Obama’s outstanding leadership,….
24pRick P is just smart enough to know that his legions of teabagger zombies have the attention span of grubs munching on coffee grounds, and will not remember any of his or the Repuke’s previous policies or specious utterances.
25Various mental illnesses have their cycles: sometimes they have a personality forced to go in one direction, then abruptly do an about face. There. You have it. And I didn’t have to shake a bag of chicken bones over the ashes of a dying fire to come to that conclusion.
26Didn’t Greg Abbott (I gag just typing his name) say Executive orders were not doable in Texas when our glorious Wendy suggested she would use them if elected?
