Texas Governor Mocks California

Human Events reports:
Texas Gov. Rick Perry told Republican activists on Friday that conservative principles are what makes governing a state successful, contrasting Texas with the free-spending ways of California.

“I go to California on a pretty regular basis, and I promise you the governor of California today is tired of seeing my mug in California, because Arnold [Schwarzenegger] knows I’m coming out there to recruit businesses to bring back to the state of Texas,” Perry said in a speech to the Southern Republican Leadership Conference.

Perry held up Texas as an opposing example, saying it is the “apex of the states when it comes to the economy.” He said Texas, for the eighth consecutive year, is the No. 1 exporting state and has created more jobs in the past decade than any other state in the country.
