Give Me Cowboy Values Over Washington Values Any Day

 Friend Patrick Dorinson has a great commentary on FoxNews.com:

Give Me Cowboy Values Over Washington Values Any Day

By Patrick Dorinson

No sooner had Texas Gov.  Rick Perry entered the race for the White House, than the word “cowboy” resurfaced as an insult and a pejorative.

“Governor Perry is going to have to fight the impression that he’s a cowboy from Texas, this simply added to it.” Karl Rove, formerly Bush’s Brain Has Perry’s cowboy shtick already gone too far?” That was the headline recently in the Las Vegas Sun

More….

COMMENT: I agree with Patrick…I’d rather have someone who lives real cowboy values running the government that someone from a ivy league school who never had to deal with real life and hard work.

    I would say that I don’t care if someone is  form the ivy league or a cowboy, I care if they are an effective leader. The idea that the two can’t coexist is little more than an unnecessary dualism.
