Gov. Rick Perry spoke to about 30,000 people yesterday “Saturday the Sabbath" at the Response, the prayer-and-fasting gathering he initiated.
"Lord, you are the source of every good thing, you are our only hope. And we stand before you today in awe of your power, and in gratitude for your blessings, in humility for our sins. Father our heart breaks for America. We see discord at home. We see fear in the marketplace. We see angers in the halls of government. And as a nation we have forgotten who made us, who protects us, who blesses us, and for that we cry out for your forgiveness. We pray for our nation’s leaders, Lord, for parents, for pastors, for the generals, for governors, that you would inspire them in these difficult times. Father we pray for our president, that you would impart your wisdom upon him, that you would guard his family. We pray for our military and the families who love them. Father especially, for those special operators who lost their life yesterday in defending our freedoms. You call us to repent, Lord, and this day is our response. We give it all to you. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever."

Hooray for Him. He isn't ashamed of God or Country.
Remember, Bush is from Texas too, and everything's his fault. In fact, a well known line of earthquakes was named for him - "Bush's Fault." :)
I’ll vote for Perry!! gt
