Excuse me while I pass the tissues around. We’re all collectively crying for Rick Perry and his unfortunate family, as they suffer the consequences of the Obama Administration.
According to Anita Perry, Rick’s wife, her poor banker son lost his job because of President Obama’s regulations. So yes, the Perrys are just like us. They have first-hand experience of what if feels like to suffer from the effects of this wretched economy.
At a campaign stop for her husband in South Carolina, Mrs. Perry spoke with a voter, sharing his story about losing his job. Mrs. Perry, who couldn’t wait to tell the world about how terrible the Obama Administration is, and how all the regulations on corporations are causing so many others to lose their jobs as well, jumped in with her story;
“My son lost his job because of this administration,” she said.
Except for one thing…
Seems the young Perry – his name is Griffin btw – contrary to what Anita implies, didn’t actually lose his job at Deutsche Bank. He quit, but because he wanted to help his poor poor dad on the campaign trail. You see, Griffin’s dad is running for President.
Anita goes on explaining her son’s plight,
“He resigned his job two weeks ago because he can’t go out and campaign with his father because of SEC regulations,” she said. “He has a wife… he’s trying to start a business. So I can empathize.”
Yes, she empathizes…!
I remember when my dad was running for president I too had to quit my job…. oh wait… wrong lifetime.
With a show of hands – how many of the millions of unemployed in the audience quit their high-paying corporate job to help their dad run for President? Hmmm…I’m not seeing any hands.
Yes, the Perrys are suffering just like us, and it’s all Obama’s fault!
One reply on “Poor Rick Perry – His Son Lost His Job Because Of President Obama”
Resigning from a position is entirely different from being laid off or fired. I was glad to see John King at CNN set the record straight on this. The SEC had the same rule against the mixing of politics and finance before Barack Obama became POTUS. The simple truth is that Griffin Perry made a choice to leave his job to work on his dad's campaign. No one forced him to resign, fired him, or threatened him in any way. I question the character of anyone who would deliberately attempt to mislead anyone. Being conservative doesn't mean one accepts lies to advance a cause or reach a goal.
