* These two guys really don’t like each other, so I may break my habit of skipping the Sunday “newsmaker” shows this weekend…
CNN’s “State of the Union” Govs. Rick Perry, R-Texas, and Pat Quinn, D-Ill.
Remember this quote?…
[Gov. Pat Quinn] joked about his time with Republican presidential candidate Texas Governor Rick Perry, with whom he roomed during a trip to Iraq two years ago.
“And I had to listen to his so-called philosophy for seven days. The harshest philosophy known to man,” Quinn said.

“Squeezy” versus Rick Perry?
How quick can Governor Perry get a tie silked screened as “Squeezy”…

Not a fan of Perry’s but Quinn is over matched debating his self in the mirror. Pat will do anything to avoid actually being involved in fixing Illinois problems.

Yeah anytime Pat Quinn has to listen to anyone but Pat Quinn has to be hell for Pat Quinn…

I have to say that I cannot stand either one, but I will give Quinn a little credit.
For the most part, I think Quinn believes what he says and advocates. He’s been pandering and phony very lately, but I think he does believe in his philosophy and has been very consistent (though he is an inept leader in my judgment).
Perry, on the other hand, reminds me of Raymond in “The Manchurian Candidate”. Moved to the GOP when he saw the tides turn, totally programmed, plastic, and an inch deep. Making Michele Bachmann look substantive, he is among the worst kind of extreme panderer that my Party offers.

Awesome.
I’m down on Quinn today for his stunt, but he’ll paint the walls with Perry. He was born to do it.
Quinn should be in the House or Senate knocking the stuff out of the Tea Partiers. God knows Washington could use a nice Catholic Irishman who can mix it up.
Quinn ain’t your best Illinois chief executive by a long shot, but any Fenwick boy or girl can take down Mr. Texas Wedding Cake Figure six days a week and twice on Sundays.
You get some reading, writing and arithmetic along with those blue pants and ties on Washington Blvd.
Quinn should ask how a 21st Century secessionist like Perry can justify having $8 billion in oil money in the bank and making the folks live like they’re in Mississippi.
Oops.

I think you may eat your Wordslinger. And I don’t like Adm. Perry

You can NOT get two different governors who couldn’t agree on anything if you tried.
They won’t even agree its Sunday,
I totally forgot the “Texas Sucession” bit.
Yikes. DVR at the ready…

Great movie, 1962. Sinatra’s project from start to finish. JFK signed off on the release. Angela Lansbury was only a couple years older than Lawrence Harvey. Freaky!

Perry: “There three things wrong with Illinois: Chicago liberals, pensions, and um, what was that last one?”

Three things wrong…
The first two are enough to sink any ship.

===with whom he roomed during a trip to Iraq two years ago.
I’d say one of them drew the short straw, but it appears their colleagues knew what they were doing.
