Why is Rick Perry meddling in the election of Texas A&M SGA

Can somebody explain to me why Rick Perry is questioning the election of the student body president?

Especially, since the winner is the first gay person to do so?

Here's more

In an op-ed in the Houston Chronicle, Perry argues that the rightful winner of the Texas A&M student body election was disqualified due to anonymous charges of voter intimidation and for failing to disclose the receipt for glow sticks used in a campaign Facebook video.

“Brooks did not win the election. He finished second by more than 750 votes to one Mr. Robert McIntosh,” Perry wrote, referring to Bobby Brooks, the election runner-up who assumed the post as president.

Brooks is the first openly gay man to serve as the school’s president.

“However, McIntosh was disqualified by the SGA Election Commission and Judicial Court through a process that — at best — made a mockery of due process and transparency.”

McIntosh, Perry says, was acquitted of the voter intimidation charges following an appeal, though the glow stick charges stuck. Many of the voter intimidation complaints were found to be from people who backed Brooks, Perry said. 

Perry in the op-ed said the school’s Board of Regents was never made aware of the accusations of voter intimidation. The former Texas governor claimed the university is “choosing preferred outcomes over equal treatment.”

Why is he up in their business like this? He needs to learn how to do his new job that he's unqualified for.

Oh Snap! Gov. Rick Perry Indicted for Abuse of Power

From NBC News:

A grand jury indicted Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Friday for abusing the powers of his office by carrying out a threat to veto funding for state prosecutors investigating public corruption -- making the possible 2016 presidential hopeful his state's first indicted governor in nearly a century.

A special prosecutor spent months calling witnesses and presenting evidence that Perry broke the law when he promised publicly to nix $7.5 million over two years for the public integrity unit, which is run by Travis County District Rosemary Lehmberg's office. Several top aides to the Republican governor appeared before grand jurors in Austin, including his deputy chief of staff, legislative director and general counsel. Perry himself wasn't called to testify. 

He was indicted by an Austin grand jury on felony counts of abuse of official capacity and coercion of a public servant. Maximum punishment on the first charge is five to 99 years in prison. The second is two to 10 years.

Rick Perry compares being Gay to Alcoholism

Just when you thought Rick "Jethro" Perry was hiding in a corner somewhere, POOF, he is somewhere talking mess.

Last night at the Commonwealth Club of California, Rick spoke on a myriad of topics, including the LGBT stuff.

Not too long ago, the Texas Republican Party added a platform to provide access to reparative therapy for gays and lesbians. Now, we know that reparative therapy is a crock of crap, but it's Texas republicans at the table.

Anywho, Rick was questioned about the therapy addition and if being gay is a disorder; he responded with this:

"Whether or not you feel compelled to follow a particular lifestyle or not, you have the ability to decide not to do that. I may have the genetic coding that I'm inclined to be an alcoholic, but I have the desire not to do that, and I look at the homosexual issue the same way."

Alcoholic... Gay... How is that a comparison, Rick?

Interesting Quote: Rick Perry

The Boys Scouts of America has been built upon the values of faith and family for more than 100 years and today's decision contradicts generations of tradition in the name of political correctness. While I will always cherish my time as a scout and the life lessons I learned, I am greatly disappointed with this decision.

Rick Perry thinks the Boy Scouts should stay Anti-Gay

Rick Perry loves to be in the midst of mess, y'all. Yesterday, this jackass said at the Boy Scouts of America parade that the organization shouldn't change their stance of gays.

Perry said: "Hopefully the board will follow their historic position of keeping the Scouts strongly supportive of the values that make Scouting this very important and impactful organization."

"I think most people see absolutely no reason to change the position and neither do I," Perry said. He said his views on the subject haven't changed since writing his book, in which he noted that profits would be donated to the Boy Scouts of America Legal Defense since "they continue to be under attack from the forces of secularism."

Asked if he would feel different about the Scouts if the policy is changed, Perry wouldn't say. But he added: "to have popular culture impact 100 years of their standards is inappropriate."

He also disagreed that allowing members of all sexual preferences would make the Scouts more tolerant: "I think you get tolerance and diversity every day in Scouting."

Rick, instead of talking trash, how about shutting up and get the f*ck out of office!

Rick 'Jethro' Perry will NOT go to South Carolina

Defeat is not cute and Perry is seriously realizing this. Last night, Perry said he will go home to re-assess his campaign and he's not going to South Carolina.

Rick Perry's "re-assessing" phase will apparently last through the remainder of the week.
After his disappointing fifth place finish in the Iowa caucuses, the Texas governor has scrapped his entire campaign schedule and will return to Austin to ponder whether to forge ahead with his bid.

"We have been told to hold until we hear from Austin," said a Perry source in South Carolina, where the candidate was preparing to launch an aggressive statewide bus tour on Wednesday. "It looks like he is not coming this week. He has definitely canceled his plans." 

He just needs to quit, end of story.
