Rick Perry and the Constitution
Texas governor Rick Perry wants to hold the federal government to only those items enumerated in the Constitution. All other rights belong to the states he believes.
Well, if Rick Perry wants to adhere to the actual words of the Constitution, Texas will change dramatically. First, the military bases located in Texas (and there are tons of them) have to be closed, NASA (in whatever form it will be) has to move out, all production for military contracts have to end, you have to tear up all those Interstate highways that were built with 90% federal money, all homes built with VA, FHA, Fannie or Freddy Mae money have to be torn down, Church donations will lose their tax deductibility, the border patrol has to move out, close all those federal government offices, and on and on and on. What's left Mr. Perry? Talk is cheap, but not the consequences.
