Perry may not speak at 'The Response'
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2011/07/20/perry-may-not-speak-at-the-response/

(CNN) - Despite taking a lead role in an upcoming national prayer event, Texas governor Rick Perry may not speak at the religious gathering.

Organizers of "The Response," a day of Christian prayer and fasting set for August 6 at Houston's Reliant Stadium, say Perry's role has yet to be determined.

The Texas governor is considering whether to run for President, recently telling a Des Moines newspaper he is starting to feel "called" to jump into the race.

Perry is featured prominently on "The Response" web site inviting Americans to join him in prayer for what organizers describe as a "nation in crisis."

"We need God's help. That's why I'm calling Americans to pray and fast the way Jesus did," Perry says in a video message on the event's web site.

A spokesman for The American Family Association, a Christian conservative organization that is in charge of the event, said Perry's role is still being worked out.

doing his damndest to keep his true nature and thoughts hidden...As usual.

Republicons really got a major THANG for working in the occult shadows. What's up with that?

2. Maybe he needs to go down to the 7-11 and ask Jesus what he should do.

4. Damn right he won't
Perry knows he has to hide his fundamentalism until he has the office of POTUS in the bag.
After that it's *heathens beware* - there's a new preacher in town!

5. Way ahead of you Ricky
Lots of Americans are fasting, though not quite in the way Jesus did. More like how the folks in Biafra did back in the 60s. And what do you know? It's due to the same cause, hidebound conservatism!
