We know the donors to Colbert's Super PAC, but who's bankrolling Perry's 'Jobs for Iowa' Super PAC?

PAC dares Colbert to tractor pull

A super PAC that’s become the target of satirical teasing by Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert is pushing back, challenging the late night television host to a tractor pull – no kidding, apparently – on Saturday at the site of the GOP straw poll in Ames, Iowa.

Jobs for Iowa, an independent group that paid $40,000 to air an ad touting Texas Gov. Rick Perry as a “better option for president,” issued the challenge in a cheeky Friday afternoon news release that mocks the blow-hard conservative personae Colbert adopts on his nightly program, The Colbert Report – which he pronounces by dropping the ‘t’s at the end of both words.

“Mr. Colbert, the only thing in Iowa that can stake claim to a silent letter is Des Moines, so you need to take your ‘t’ back to France. It’s time to put up or shut up,” reads the release.

The move comes as another pro-Perry super PAC, Make Us Great Again, has emerged with the blessing of close Perry allies and appears poised to marginalize other outside groups competing for big donor cash to boost Perry’s presidential bid, which he plans to announce Saturday in South Carolina.

3. Perry PAC donors - Oil. They want him to do to the country, what he's done to Texas.

Basically, deregulate everything and let them do what they want, while getting huge tax breaks.
