You realize that the Governor has not lived in the Governor's Mansion since 2007 ?

I've never seen this statewide poll.

Sure, I know about the arson thing. How come it's taking them so long to repair it? Almost five years seems like someone's being a real slowpoke.

And besides, Perry slept there for years before the fire.

Some refer to it as an 'election.'

Comes around about every four years.

Anyhow, back on topic.

I wonder if Perry could find Iran on a world map?

And would his wife have to explain 'drone' to him?

The arson incident happened during a major restoration project to bring the mansion up to code. The restoration project is due to be finished in 2012.

I think that any rivals worthy of the name are already watching us via satellites. And have been for decades. Any country needing to check us out with drones would probably have a real hard time getting them within range of our borders.

Does Iran have SAMs deployed in places other than Iran?

So Iran has an accident at a rocket site and you conclude it must be American cruise missiles? They are incapable of having an accidental explosion? What sense would it make to launch a cruise missile at an Iranian facility, with a conventional payload it isn't going to destroy it or set their nuclear program back. It makes no sense.

Do you have any proof besides tenuous leaps of logic that back up your assertions about US cruise missile strikes into Iran?
