Common thread among GOP Prez contenders – they don’t practice what they preach
The Los Angeles Times reports that Texas Governor Rick Perry – yes, the same clown who called Social Security a “Ponzi Scheme” – collects almost $92,000 a year as the result of taking early retirement from the state of Texas WHILE STILL employed as Governor. His salary as Governor is just under a quarter million dollars.
Perry started collecting his state pension earlier this year (January 31).
Perry, who is now 61, also still owes between $100,000 and $250,000 in an outstanding student loan that he took out to send his son Perry to Vanderbilt University .
These disclosures were made in Perry’s disclosure statement to the Federal Election Commission.
Perry told ABC News, "I think it’d be rather foolish to not access what you’ve earned."
