CNN: Rick Perry's Energy Plan is Stupid

It's not "shovel-ready" (yes, actually, it is).

It doesn't provide long-term job growth (well actually, it does).

It's, it's, it's just dumb and also he's from Texas.

The Real Differences Between Perry’s and Obama’s Plans:

1. Perry’s plan doesn’t require increased government spending;

2. Perry’s plan doesn’t require expansion of government oversight;

3. Perry’s plan is based on current technology, so it doesn’t rely on future technological advancements;

4. Perry’s plan creates cheap energy, further stimulating the economy (Obama’s approach is to increase energy prices to make Green energy options more attractive); and

5. Perry’s plan uses a very dependable means of expanding the economy, rather than wishful projections based on Keynesian stimuli.

The bottom line is that Perry’s taxpayer-cost-per-job-created is zero, while Obama’s is running around $250K. That comparison alone would sure make for an interesting article. CNN? Anybody?

The beauty of this thing is it sweeps away the oppressive Obama regime restrictions on domestic energy production, it's proven energy as opposed to pie in the sky half-billion dollar Solyndra crony-fairy-farts, and it stomps the EPA right in their global-warmenin-commie-bullshit faces.

Other than that it's awful, and Perry stutters in debates.
