Rick Perry: Want to hate a law? Make one up.

H/T Joe

Rick Perry is a classic example of a mouth speaking before the brain catches up:
For a small-government conservative on the presidential campaign stump like Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a new federal regulation forcing farmers to get commercial drivers licenses would make a perfect example of Barack Obama’s Washington run amok.

But there is no such regulation.

During his debut in Iowa Sunday night in Waterloo, then again at on Monday at the Iowa State Fair Monday, Gov. Perry brought up the phantom “obscene, crazy” regulation in Texan terms.

“If you’re a tractor driver, if you drive your tractor across a public road, you’re gonna have to have a commercial driver’s license. Now how idiotic is that?” he thundered to the fair crowd in Des Moines, with the rejoinder, “What were they thinkin’?”

Like I''ve said before, Perry is an accident waiting to happen!

    I have to say, the more I see of Rick Perry, the less impressed I am with him.

    Perry is a loose cannon.

    He's making himself look foolish.

    "But there is no such regulation." Yes and no. As of this minute, it does not exist, but it has been under discussion at the Federal level.
